Baxter Parp Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 So this is "guesswork" but the oil revenue figures in the White Paper were accurate? [emoji23]So you agree GERS is misleading and shouldn't be the basis for a discussion on Scotland's economy? Good-oh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baxter Parp Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 You really are struggling with this reading thing aren't you? Where did I say any of that? You're saying that GERS is as accurate as you think the oil projections are in the white paper. No fictitious deficit, no black holes, no austerity for Scotland when it's independent. Fine, we agree on that one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The oil projections were never accurate - they weren't even close. Whilst GERS is and was accepted by all parties as the most accurate way available to assess Scotlands economy. Keep trying with the reading. Maybe once the summer holidays are by your teacher might be able to help you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTJohnboy Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 19 hours ago, Malky3 said: According to the latest poll there's still over 54% of Scots who wouldn't vote for Independence. i suspect the reason they don't engage, and perhaps something I should learn from, is that nationalists are ideologically driven to take the country over a cliff and when you ask them why they would do it, they haven't got a single reason other than some fantasy that anything is better than being part of the worlds 5th richest economy. I'm not going to put a figure on it, but please don't forget Scotland has contributed very significantly to the UK economy, and will be quite entitled to a decent share of the spoils when we go our own way. Also don't forget all that crap about us being equal partners and all that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to reply to him but it's worth pointing out the UK is actually the world's 19th richest country, he's confusing largest with richest. GDP per head ia what's really important, Britain may even be lower than that now, it's miles behind Ireland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colkitto Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 John McDonnell has certainly set the social media heather alight by saying Labour won't block indyref2.

Much better customer service and an excellent online banking service. Wouldn't go back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
