An example of this which was prominent in the media is when right-wing UKIP leader Nigel Farage was unable to promote his views due to RIC supporters disrupting an Edinburgh election meeting.

If the anti-austerity left can convince Scotland’s young people that independence means genuine change, all political bets are off.

To launch the action, RIC members distributed flyers and posters in social housing schemes that read: "Britain is for the rich, Scotland can be ours".

[11] RIC organiser Jonathon Shafi said to the Sunday Herald newspaper on 23 February 2014 that he had encountered three-to-one support for an independent Scotland and stated:

[17] An online Radical Independence Conference was held in June 2021, offering workshops on planning acts of civil disobedience to pressure the UK Government.

RIC sees international links as vital so that we can offer our support to people struggling around the world, but also so that Scotland can call on global help when demanding our own right to self-determination from Westminster.

We want to come together in alliance with all those throughout these islands who see breaking up the British state as the way to achieve major social progress, and work together to end the undemocratic rule of Westminster.

Galloway accused a RIC-organised protest directed at Nigel Farage, a Member of the European Parliament (MEP), of having an "anti-English character",[24] while Forsyth called it "a very bad advertisement for Scotland".
