‘People in my constituency being constantly harmed by the UK government.’
Presumably they harm them by keeping public spending in Scotland at a much higher level than would be in the case with independence?
What a load of horseshit. But anything to distract from the SNP’s horrendous record in government I suppose.
The snp are for many a means to an end. When scotland becomes independent the snp will fragment and become irrelevant.It seems to me that the wish for independence is the only thing that holds the SNP together. There seems to be a broad spectrum of more general political ideologies within it. With Alex Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon they have tended to follow relatively left wing policies, but that seems to be shifting to the right a bit under Humza Yousaf.
If ,independence is ever achieved I would expect the SNP to disintegrate and we would have just the Scottish equivalent of the parties in England.
Why would they disintegrate? Would they not just become a Center left party?It seems to me that the wish for independence is the only thing that holds the SNP together.

The country isn’t in a good place and relies on handouts from Westminster where, under the Tories, they weren‘t going to get.It seems to me that the wish for independence is the only thing that holds the SNP together.

Some of the “mood music” that has come out since the stepping down of Nicola Sturgeon makes me think that they are not as coherent as they seemed previously. But meantime they seem to be the only prospect for independence in the foreseeable future.Why would they disintegrate? Would they not just become a Center left party?
