We also need to lay the ground work for bond market borrowing.
Currently the Scottish government can, but doesn't borrow from the bond market (Kilts😏).
We instead borrow through the National Loans Fund.
Proving to the bond market that Scotland is good for its money wouldn't do us any harm IMHO!

We are not ALL getting poorer. The very rich have increased their wealth exponentially since 2020.
Most of that wealth has come from the government spending during Covid.
It's a travesty that no Tory minister even asked, where all that spending would end up

I'm saying Porcupine.
After listening to Will, talking about the photo shoot, it's a miracle they actually got out of that crevasse alive!
No Photoshop in those days.

It's a poll on the Scottish Parliament elections in 18 months time. It's very unlikely that Labour would recover from that deficit IMHO.

The Reform candidate standing at the last GE in my constituency said the same thing. Reform are an English Nationalist party. How any self respecting Scot would vote for them is beyond me🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️

#FaveGigs24 Beluga Lagoon at the Music Hall Aberdeen.
The stage set consisted of an actual working bar, beer pump,optics, stools the lot. With an actual barman!
At various points during the set band members would walk across the stage, order a drink and casually drink as though in their local!

The real possibility that Farage and his right wing Reform party could form the next government is the only reason you need to want independence.
Scotland is on a different track to England, we have more in common with our Scandinavian neighbours than those living in the south east of England.

That's the dilemma for Farage.
The people I worked with as a postie mostly would support Farage. But they'd also vote to rejoin the EU.
They also wanted Royal Mail brought back into public ownership.
Many have socialist principles. How does Reform square that circle🤷🏻♂️
