I muri i nga pooti 2011 ki te Paremete Scottish me te nuinga o te SNP i puta mai, i kii te Kawanatanga o Scotland i tana hiahia ki te whakahaere i tetahi pooti motuhake i te tau 2014
He aha? I te marama o Mei 2012, i whakapumautia he whakahaere whakawhiti-rōpū e kiia ana ko Yes Scotland ki te pakanga mo te pooti Ae. I karangatia te kaikorero ā-motu o te SSP, a Colin Fox, kia noho ki tōna Poari Kaitohutohu, e whakaatu ana i te tautoko nui o te rōpū ki te rangatiratanga i roto i ngā tau tekau mā rima kua hipa. I mahia tenei i runga i te tohe a te kaiwhakahaere matua o Yes Scotland, a Blair Jenkins, i te aroaro o te whakahe a te SNP. I te wa o te kaupapa pooti, i haere tonu te roopu ki te whakatairanga i etahi atu take tae atu ki te taake moenga, te rawakore o te hinu, te marenatanga rite, me te pakanga a Iharaira-Gaza hou.
