ri Alban Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 (edited) On 06/12/2023 at 11:57, Ulysses said: I haven't suggested that England might act the whatever. I've pointed out that England would act in its own best interests, just as the EU did in the TCA negotiations - and it would be absolutely right for it to do so. That would mean that Scotland, as the party with less leverage in trade negotiations, might have to either: (1) Sacrifice some independence of its trade and economic policies in order to secure a favourable trade deal with its most essential trading partner; (2) Sacrifice some degree of trade, and associated economic activity and tax revenues, in order to secure a higher degree of independence in its trade and economic policies. It would be a mistake to assume that those difficult choices would not arise. Brexiteers made four big misplaced assumptions. They assumed that the EU's dependence on trade with the UK was greater than it actually was. They assumed that the EU would want to continue treating the UK as an insider after it left. They assumed that they were equal partners with equal leverage in trade negotiations. And because of those three assumptions, they assumed that the UK could leave and that things could carry on just as they had done before. Given that the recent history is all too clear, Scotland can't make the same misplaced assumptions. If Scotland leaves the UK it will have to negotiate a trade deal, and the prudent assumption Scotland has to make is that such a trade deal will either restrict economic growth and tax revenues or else restrict Scotland's freedom to pursue independent trade and economic policies. For some people, that's just how it works and they'll be perfectly comfortable taking the risks and making the choices. For others, it's an economic and potentially social disruption that they would consider unwelcome and possibly unnecessary. Less leverage. You have Scotland mixed up with Ireland. Now that would be a bit one sided with all that nothingness you have to offer. Edited January 1 by ri Alban Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, Scotland would have little leverage in those negotiations, and England would have a lot. That's exactly how it played out in the TCA negotiations between your United Kingdom and our European Union. 100 years ago, Ireland made its choices, and secured its independence. Ireland played a mixed game. There was no "trade deal" on offer, but Ireland was a significant farming supplier to the UK, so Ireland sacrificed some of its freedom of manoeuvre in trade and economic policies to keep a foothold in British markets, but also sacrificed some level of economic activity in order to maintain independence of action in certain industrial areas. Ultimately it worked out - but it took nearly 60 years for Ireland to even begin to develop as a genuinely independent trading nation. It was almost 60 years after independence before we could strike out on our own and not depend on the British pound as our currency. If you think - I mean, genuinely think - that Scotland would have real leverage in trade negotiations with one of the largest economic centres on the planet, then by all means explain how you think that would work.

Ireland didn't have much choice in those days, because things were done differently (trade agreements weren't really a thing). Scotland would have better choices, and it's fine to approach independence on that basis, but one also has to assume that in a trade negotiation England (or the rUK) will suit itself. That doesn't necessarily mean a trade agreement would go badly for Scotland, but it would be economically unsound to presume that it would automatically go well. Ironically, the UK-EU TCA helps the case for Scottish independence. If Scotland becomes independent then it can reasonably expect the terms of the TCA and other UK trade agreements to apply to Scotland. That gives a lot of predictability for businesses.

I'm assuming that if there were actual trade negotiations, the Scots (and indeed the rest of the UK) would send in professional negotiators and not a bunch of serial ranters from football message boards. But of course that might not actually help. The British had genuinely excellent negotiators in their talks with the EU. But they were hamstrung by two problems. One was the unreasonable and inconsistent negotiating lines and directions given to them by their political masters. The other was that while British civil servants and diplomats were expert negotiators, they weren't expert technical trade negotiators. Why? Because all the best British talent at trade negotiations had been hoovered up by the EU in the previous 20 years, because that's were all the action was. On a separate note (I might as well continue to bore you and anyone else who's still reading)... ...one of the big economic sacrifices Ireland made from independence to 1979 related to currency. In effect, Ireland didn't genuinely have the political and administrative confidence to strike it out alone with a currency backed by a very small economy. So we pegged our currency in a 1-to-1 relationship with GBP for all that time. It was necessary for fiscal and banking stability, but it meant we had very little if any independence regarding stuff like interest rates and treasury policy. It was only with the appearance of the two-band European Exchange Rate Mechanism that Ireland could make the jump away from Sterling, and that was one of the key building blocks that allowed Ireland to develop a successful industrial investment policy. It also meant that for decades Ireland had to maintain very large Sterling reserves so that the Central Bank here could support the Irish currency and keep it artificially pegged to GBP. If Scots are gonna be persuaded to vote for independence, they will (IMO) need to know the score when it comes to currency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Scots are gonna be persuaded to vote for independence, they will (IMO) need to know the score when it comes to currency. Of course 😂 I wasn't referring to the indy campaign on here (!) but the wider independence movement itself often seems short on the idea that there will be a bit of bartering. I would also have some concerns about any Scottish negotiating team going into them for the reasons you give. I can't speak for the talent (although my assumption would be a very similar position to UK - EU would play out) but I do worry about the political oversight. I think for example the anti-nuclear position is promising something that could very quickly be traded for concessions in some arena from England but is often given as a reason for independence. It's the nature of politics of course but I feel there's often too much promised and for me there's just too many unknowns. Too often the answers seem to amount to "trust me it'll be fine" as well. You're also right on currency. The idea that we retain the GBP post-indy has always bothered me for exactly the reasons you state. Although I don't have a better idea either, but then again that's not my problem to resolve. Not a bore at all Uly, I think it's quite refreshing seeing an unbiased opinion from someone looking in and I appreciate your insights 👍 also it's quite early so I'm probably rambling all over the shop 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
