British Unionist Party
The British Unionist Party (BUP) is a Scottish unionist political party founded in December 2015 as A Better Britain – Unionist Party by activists from the Better Together campaign against Scottish independence. Unlike the mainstream unionist parties, it is critical of the devolution process, which it views as a "slow road to separation". The party has a statement of principles based on the four themes of Union, constitution, industry and sovereignty.
