Did she ever say anything other than No to Indyref 2? I seriously can’t remember her ever saying anything else of note. An absaloot buffoon. It’s actually a wonder Scotland isn’t independent yet and that is a slant against the SNP in particular that they can’t really sway it yet despite the biggest idiots ever running the WM government with all the chaos, lies and damage of brexit and even bigger fools here. Davidson did vehemently oppose brexit I suppose then completely changed her tune when her bosses put her straight. Pardon the pun. I see them touting Murdo Fraser now...

jake Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 If we do get independence I think I'm right in saying that most fellow advocates for this want to rejoin the EU? Our GDP v public spend wouldn't allow this and we would have to fall In line with the austerity policies practiced by the EU. I think I'm right in saying currently that stands at around 9% . The rules to join would mean slashing that to 3%. Have i got this wrong ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be bottle tops. But to adopt the Euro is a hamstring on our ability to tailor our economy to its needs given the strict measures it requires. I really hope it's not a vote catcher for independence as imo it's crazy to join . I accept most dont agree with me. It is I thought a maastricht treaty requirement to align and only Denmark and the UK have opt out. I will still vote for independence . But I would argue(on here so not really going to change much) against a subsequent vote on rejoining the EU. I think I'm right in saying you are left wing with your views X. Doesnt it concern you ?

Never thought of myself as left wing, certainly no fan of trade union power. I suppose I am more Liberal, left of centre. I abhor the tories both in Scotland and England but my real hatred is for the Scottish Labour Party who are happy to support anyone who is against independence. On your question about the EU, I voted remain but with no great conviction. After independence I'm not really sure how I would vote on rejoining; I would just be happy it was up to the people of Scotland to decide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
