I voted SNP for the reason I was told by the then leader Alec Salmond to get Devo Max. It made sense that Scotland had more control of its own destiny. No one ever envisgaed that 45% would say Yes
I want to put this into context....
The UK is in Meltdown over this 52-48 Brexit vote where 17.4 M people voted to leave the EU, the SNP got 45-55, more tax powers, no Uni fees, no prescriptions charges, no towns over run by ethnic majorities, no Thugs roaming the streats with big Knives .........................
SNP kid themselves on, they really do. The 2014 Whitepaper was built around Oil revenue , at a time when fossil fuels needed to be toned down, where exactly is our income going to come from - Whiskey?
I know its difficult with such wallopers at Westminster - but the SNPs must have a mandate- and they dont have one. 63% Brexit Remain is not a mandate, 45% Leave UK is not a mandate.......................
So I agree with Hunt- If Scotland gives the SNPs a massive endorsment at the elections in 2021 then ok talks can begin, but with the state of the world the last thing we need is to be a small independent country with Nuclear capability
