Electronics, synthesisers, retro computing, art, crafts, cooking, living, breathing. Scotland 🏴will be better as an independent nation, like the hundreds of other independent nations. There's seldom a solution if the problem is profitable.

On a slight offshoot, this will likely be the 2nd time Alex Salmond was right about oil prices reaching above $100 a barrel post 2014.

As WM is still refusing to lift some of the ludicrous red lines of Brexit, I can't see that happening until after Scottish Independence.

Disabling Iran's military machine, in part or in whole, will have next to no effect on terrorist networks.
It may most likely increase their activities.
The 'bully' of the ME right now, are the countries infringing the most upon the region.
That would be the US/Israel coalition: no question.

Trying to convince Scots SME's who once freely exported and imported with the EU and are now struggling, that the Brexit disaster can somehow be cured with a pep talk, is an utter waste of Scotland Office funding.
A glorious offshoot of the highly unsuccessful blue Tories Festival of Brexit...

It's not a matter of working harder to encourage more business with the EU for most small businesses.
Europeans simply aren't buying.
And who can blame them when Brexit is still in a mutative state and it makes almost everything 'made in Britain' more expensive.

Coincidentally, Israel also exports almost the same amount in value of "battle tested" armaments annually.

Brown was half the Blair team.
He pretended at the end it was nothing to do with him, but he continued Blair's assault on the ill & disabled with Darling and Yvette Cooper, still pops up now and again to tell very old lies to Scots.
That leaves Major, who was, let's be honest, rather diluted...

The energy alone that Scotland transfers to England, NI and Wales is more than the "extra' amount per head *allocated as Scottish spending.
*It's not Scottish Gov spending tho, it's what Westminster spends and then says that's what it costs to be in the union...

What would the French say if they as a nation were exporting Β£1.5B in electricity to England and getting nothing tangible or accountable in return for it?

That's on top of the Β£1.5Bn already in place.
Β£4.9Bn in annual electricity transfers.
Β£1921 for every Scottish household.

And that's not including the gas transfers which annually run into tens of billions.
And with energy reserved, the result of these energy excesses is widespread fuel poverty...

It's how I've voted in the last several elections.
It depends on your constituency.
If you live in a safe SNP seat, don't vote SNP1+2, otherwise your 2nd vote is wasted.
If your seat has changed hands, more often not SNP, SNP1+2 does make sense as a precaution in case they lose the constituency.
