Labour’s “Britain” a green energy superpower?
Thanks to Scotland’s abundant renewable energy and exploiting Scottish consumers who’re paying probably the highest energy prices in Europe while fuel poverty in Scotland is c30% and consumers in England pay less for energy generated in Scotland.

“Scotland is holding up the UK with renewables, gas, oil, financial sector and whisky. It’s why Scottish bonds came straight in at the same level as the blessed UK.
But of course, none of this stopped Reeves having a politicised pop at the SNP.”

"We only funded Scotland because our pet hamster up there asked" is an absolutely breathtaking statement for a party nominally interested in keeping the UK together to make.
A complete refusal to even speak to the elected government of Scotland yet some bullshit throw away line about how a guy she couldn't identity and who's name she only just read out for the first time sorted out Scotland getting funding from our own fucking taxes.

Rachel Reeves forgot to thank the SNP who have been asking her to lift the two child cap & who have already lifted thousands oot of poverty as she races to say that she's lifting it.
Scotland gets less and l don't believe that shite about Ansas Sarwar. Otherwise, did he ask for the Welsh & Ni Government!
Nasty wee woman. No one opposed Defence Contracts in Scotland. It's literally Rachel Reeves & Labour's job to since Defense is reserved. The criticism was aimed at no Public 💷🙄
