Scottish Socialist Youth (SSY) is a non-partisan anti-capitalist organisation which stands for the creation of an independent, socialist Scotland. They regard their core principles as "Socialism, Independence, Social Liberation, Democracy, Internationalism and Environmentalism".[1]
The organisation was previously known as the Young Scottish Socialists (YSS) from a period from 2015 to 2021. In 2021, the organisation was relaunched by ex-members as Scottish Socialist Youth, unaffiliated with the Scottish Socialist Party and as a non-partisan left-wing pressure group.
They have one University affiliate, that being Stirling University SSY.[2]
