The Free Scotland Party was a minor political party in Scotland that stood for an independent Scotland, independent of both the United Kingdom and the European Union.

The party was founded by Brian Nugent, from Shetland, after he left the Scottish National Party due to disagreements over Europe.[1] The party holds up Norway, a non-EU country, as an example for Scotland.[2]

The party contested three constituencies in the 2005 general election[3] campaigning on the issue of the fishing industry in Scotland.[1] Maitland Kelly received 183 votes (0.4%) in Ochil and South Perthshire,[4] Nugent received 176 votes (1.0%) in Orkney and Shetland,[5] and Dallas Carter received 384 votes (1.0%) in Motherwell & Wishaw.[6]

The party also stood in the Scottish Parliament election, 2007,[7] gaining 664 votes (0.24%) in the Mid Scotland and Fife electoral region.[8] Jim Fairlie, a former deputy leader of the SNP and the party's finance spokesman,[9][10] received 575 votes (1.65%) in Perth.[11][12]
