Interesting! What we're seeing with all this new data is that the Brexit damage is only getting worse as time goes on. Companies aren't "adjusting", they're either leaving, downscaling or going under. From manufacturing to services to culture to farming and fishing, the decline is snowballing.

Tackling child poverty is my driving mission - and thanks to our actions, Scotland is the only part of the UK where child poverty is falling.

Glad that Labour was finally shamed into doing the right thing.

To add insult to injury, folk in Pitlochry with an electric car will have to pay an extra 1.80 in tax on top of higher electricity costs, just to reach the supermarkets. As opposed to 18p at the outside if you drive electric in London.

London: 7°C - Pitlochry: -2°C
Yet the person freezing in Pitlochry pays more for electricity — electricity generated in their own town.
Meanwhile, London, which produces almost none, pays less.
This isn’t just unfair. It’s exploitation. And it’s happening in Scotland every single day.

It’s says so much about the british media in Scotland that there has been absolutely no mention of this meeting on the bbc, The Scotsman or The Herald

There's absolutely no rational argument against Independence. An Independent Scotland would be one of the Richest Countries in Europe.

It's extremely obvious. Nobody in England wants English Independence.

Wonder why?
