But they still can’t say what currency, what happens to pensions and future EU membership and UK trade ?
Oops typo, meant to say catastrophe
Given Farage is about to drive the UK into a wall and sell off the parts to the americans, gleefully aided by Starmer, Scotland must become independent and part of the EU, or we will all suffer for it.
Fuck off, Kate.
Other than platitudes like this, there isn’t an economic case for Scottish independence.
We had our change and the people voted No, stop flogging a dead horse already Scotland.
Thanks, Kate.
Your other views are abhorrent, but I’m sure you’re on the money with this one.
Brexit was a disaster, and every argument for Scottish independence is the same as Brexit.
If Brexit didn’t go well, why would Scottish independence.
‘Cos we’re different’ isn’t a detailed answer.
She’s full of shìt
Yeah, surely we’d much rather be dependent on the country next door and the high handed decisions the Parliament based in their country and serving their needs makes.
What’s not to like about;
Losing our European Citizenship
Privatisation of our state owned assets.
Lack of investment due to borrowing restrictions.
Selling our own council housing stock.
Restricting our rights to decide who comes here.
Squandering of our oil wealth.
It’s the Unionist at whatever the cost pack mentality that holds Scotland back
Never mind economic, it’s a cultural necessity…
SNP person says that independence is s good plan.
In other news, Snoop Dog said or done something to promote cannabis, Jeff Bezos said Amazon are good and turkeys discourage Christmas.
I honestly don’t believe that a hypothetical post-Scottish-independence United Kingdom would refuse us a formal currency union. In practice, there’s nothing to stop the continued use of GBP, but with or without a formal monetary union, we would still be dependent upon the BoE — so there’s complexities one way or the other (which, is surely to be expected, no?)
And open up the highlands
Given the junta are going to take over England it’ll be more than just economic necessity, we’re going to need a fortified border.
I don’t care what the no lot say. I’ll always vote for independence. Better the country we run and vote for than the country we don’t.
One huge issue is the lack of opportunities. Many young folks are heading south to London. Perhaps through remote workers Scotland can increase their tax income but I checked prices and houses are ludicrously expensive to buy and renting houses is almost impossible anywhere in Scotland in the countryside.
Changing that could bring a lot of talent into the country. I am a remote software engineer myself who earns 100k and would love to pay my taxes in Scotland, but there aren’t just any houses to rent outside of the Edinburgh area.
Higher tax and mortgage rates are not an economic necessity.
Trying to borrow to fund public expenditure with zero credit history is not an economic necessity.
Ireland is a prime example why this is the only way forward.
How about present an actual plan that demonstrates this rather than vacuous statements.
Reality is the SNP has never presented anything even close to a plan, just a bunch of propaganda about how terrible Westminster is and how Scotland would do so much better if it was allowed to fully govern itself.
They can’t even address the currency issue, how can anyone have faith in independence being an economic benefit when they aren’t even willing to outline how an independent Scotland would deal with something that fundamental.
Yes I have read the Scot gov website, no it’s not a real plan and it conveniently avoids discussing some of the bigger issues with moving to a Scottish pound and short/medium term pain that will come with it.
What exactly are the economic benefits of leaving the UK?
I know a lot of people here will say joining the EU, but what exactly does that change?
If it is free trade, what is Scotland selling that the EU wants and buying that the EU makes?
