LJS Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 2 hours ago, Neil said: Report on radio four just now promised that level of detail. But not tomorrow it would seem. "The first paper on the new independence push - entitled 'Wealthier, Happier, Fairer: Why Not Scotland?' - will be a "scene setter" which will compare Scotland and the UK to other European countries and set out why the government believes the country would be better off if it were independent. Ms Sturgeon added that subsequent papers would look at a number of areas including; currency tax and spend defence social security and pensions and EU membership and trade The first minister told the BBC: "The conclusion very clearly is that Scotland could be doing much better as an independent country... Nobody right now can look at the UK - the mess it's in currently and its prospects for the UK outside of the European Union surely and conclude anything other than that Scotland can do better as an independent country." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-61785553 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just have to hope there is enough sane people around to see through it all and focus on voting for what actually makes their lives better in real terms. We failed over Brexit - Scottish independence would just be another wrong move that makes us all poorer in every way possible. Its beyond me how someone can be Pro-EU and at the same time anti UK... Its just utterly moronic. Maybe because the UK is morally bankrupt and has an electorate the majority of whom who still think Mr Johnson is a better pm than Mr Starmer. I understand people have reservations about Starmer but my arse would be a better PM than Johnson and I am fed up having my government decided by these halfwits.
