When will indyref2 happen?

The SNP should campaign specifically on the issue of a Section 30 and Independence and hint at UDI if it's not granted.

If they're rejected, having won a landslide (current forecasts suggest 50+ seats), then Sturgeon should resign as FM, trigger a Scottish parliament election and declare it a defacto referendum on independence.

Because, quite frankly, I don't know what else we can do.

Would only take 28 days after she resigned for a Scottish emergency election to be called.

 

It's the route I have been saying for ages they should take.

Ok it doesn't need to be cut. So how do you propose to raise the £2396.31 for every man, woman and child living in Scotland that would be needed to cover the fiscal black hole? What percentage tax rate are you proposing we all pay, if you aren't wanting to cut services? 

I wouldn't need to raise all of that figure for the country to be sustainable. Only a proportion. You're taking the whole figure again. But cheers for stopping with the 13bn error. As I say , minor to you but billions out.

It's really not. As I've pointed out the actual figure is £12.6Bn. Hardly billions out! 

And when the immediate currency issue is to be solved by Sterlingisation then that handcuffs the Independent Scottish budget to having no deficit whatsoever as this blog shows quite clearly. 

I ask again, how would you bridge the fiscal gap between what Scotland currently spends thanks to the generous Barnett Formula and the fact that we can dine out on the success of London, East England and the South of England and what Scotland actually raises in revenue?

We need more drugs on this thread.

Really? I think most of the Nationalists are way beyond being adequately stoned already thanks.

You're still assuming the whole figure would need to be cut. Unbelievable.

That's a fairly decent way to go about it.

There's the civil disobedience route. Just act like we're an independent nation and still part of the EU. Get Rosyth ready to accept the food and medicine people will need as the crisis hits Dover, f**k the reserved powers, keep the country open for business and open to EU nationals.

Lol, you've spent the last two weeks over reacting whenever someone mentions that Scotland should be an independent country.

Pharmaceutical supply is transnational and highly regulated. We already have shortages. Only last month we had to revert to second line regional anaesthetic drugs, to conserve first line supplies for priority patients. Fortunately we have been able to source some alternatives for now: from Poland.

Many drugs can't be stockpiled. Many require special storage. There needs to be a documented supply chain with quality control at each link in the chain.

This isn't scaremongering, it's reality.

I know this is correct because my partner was prescribed a drug by our GP that he wasn't supposed to and the pharmacist told us he'd ordered the wrong one because of Brexit. Apparently there were three types he could have prescribed but the one he did prescribe was the "wrong one". 

The pharmacist said it was down to the stockpiling and trying to keep the products with a longer shelf life.

Did I really see that? The man calling for Civil Disobedience from the minority Nationalist group in Scotland to try to force his will on his country, is accusing someone of "over reacting"?

Malky's calling Glenanover a lying c**t. That's loyalty for you.
