Lesley Riddoch suggests that a new currency in an independent Scotland would be “no bother” because card payments exist. Clearly an Emma Harper fan. (Clip from her film about Denmark.)

This woman must be the greatest gift that unionism has ever received. And she keeps on giving.
Yea, I don’t think it works like that.
There’s so much stupidity here:
“The famous Oresund Bridge between Denmark and Sweden, a frictionless border”
*OK Lesley, with you so far.*
*”*Different systems, different languages, Different currencies. Does that get in the way of cross border trade?”
*Yes, it clearly does, Lesley. different systems create non-tariff barriers to trade, and different currencies create transaction costs and differencies in value. Trade is still happening, however trade is reduced. Still, not as if you are going to say paying by card makes these problems go away.*
“Not when you pay by card”…
*Ah. She’s gone full* [Emma Harper](https://twitter.com/FrankLeeBrian/status/1778839770212270227) . Never go full Emma Harper.
