Evidence. Fairness. Lawful Authority.
Shetland First is a civic movement rooted in Shetland. We do not deny institutions — we require lawful proof where authority is asserted.
Important: This site does not encourage unlawful non-payment, evasion, obstruction, or disorder.
We promote lawful challenge, procedural fairness, and evidence-based administration.
What we ask
A narrow, lawful question: on what legal title is authority in Shetland said to rest? Where title is relied upon, it must be shown.
What we do
We build an evidential public record, insist on due process before enforcement, and engage respectfully through lawful procedures.
What we seek
Clear proof, fair process, accountable governance, and genuine local consent — including for developments with long-term environmental and safety impacts.
