Quote by Johann Lamont
Scotland is my country, the nation that shaped me, that taught me

Scotland is my country, the nation that shaped me, that taught me my values. A nation whose achievements inspired and inspire me, a community whose failings drive me – drive my overwhelming desire to fight for social justice and equality. – Johann Lamont
