The spectator is a unionist rag.
It’s like everything you read condemning Scotland in the English media is the truth, why do you think Scotland is still in the union, why do you think successive governments in WM want Scotland in the Union, is it because without Scotland, England will be seen for what it is, a small country with limited influence in the world, England needs Scotland and its resources, so does Ireland, did you know 80% of their gas comes from Scotland.
As a Scot I’m sick to the back teeth of English entitlement, they even had the audacity to play GSTK at Hampden Park as the English national anthem, I thought it was the anthem for the UK.
It feels like Scotland is being swallowed up into England, treated like a part of England and not a partnership with England.
As for Eurostat being discredited, that’s nonsense why would they lie about something that can be proven, Scotland isn’t in the EU, why would they do it. So I should believe you and the spectator magazine? Where is your evidence to discredit these facts.
What a brass neck you have, corruption at the highest level in WM is off the charts 100s of millions lost in the PPE scandal and billions lost through govt mismanagement, what we had in Scotland was one person who donated to the SNP, he then contacted the police because he was unhappy with where the SNP had spent the funds, police Scotland on Behalf of the Tory govt erected tents outside the home of Nicola Sturgeon and basically forensically went through her home, she was arrested a week later for questioning, that’s it questioning, being arrested in England has different connotations to Scotland, she was released. This has been in the media for two years, no one has been charged, it’s basically a stick to beat the SNP with, its a unionist prop much like the drug situation, they will continue to use to discredit the SNP and mugs like you fall for it because it suits the agenda and attempts to level the playing field against the corruption in WM.
Did you know SNP chiefs including Nicola Sturgeon have declined to accept their full salary entitlement following a “voluntary pay freeze” in 2009, that’s the difference they make with a millions returned to the public purse, it doesn’t happen in WM they take and never give back.
