Liz Truss telling us to ignore the highest scottish official in power says everything you need to know about her and the conservative government.
As Scotland has become a one party state unfortunately they can ignore as there are no votes to loose.

@@kethughes8266 nope not a one party state the chancers at Westminster can't stand the fact that the Scottish people have their own say, it's scotlands people who put the snp in charge no one else, if they want us back then they must return all the heavy industry jobs they stole from us and then handed to china.

Independence might be the only way for Scotland to keep an NHS-style health care service. Because the US is going to carve up the UK's NHS like a Thanksgiving turkey. Any trade deal with the US will require that tribute up front.
Very true, but I cannot see a trade deal with the US for years yet.
Either way the NHS in England will most undoubtedly be privatised moreso in the interum
the NHS is fully devolved, you nationalists are truly thick

I moved to Scotland because of the SNP. I am retired - in Scotland prescriptions are free and the NHS is great. However in Scotland I found a true belief in society - people looking to help each other.
I know Steve. Only those wonderful Scottish separatists ever care about one another. Such SNP exceptionalism is the grist to the separatist mill, and how you hear it recycled, well, apart from the odd bit of embezzlement, and the occasional affections shown to young men and the odd grope here and there.
@@TroyaE117 Nothing is worse than Sunak. By my measure he's not even British. His father is Indian. He made his money short selling RBOS stock at a time when a number of us were trying to save the bank. Around 20,000 people lost their jobs. He did it in conjunction with Fred Goodwin - which makes him a party to insider trading. The Tories are absolutely full of perverts and deviants like David Warburton, Sir Christopher Chope, Ruth Davidson. We may also see the only former Prime Minister arrested for treason when the truth about Boris Johnson and his Russian friends emerge.
@@steverichmond7142 Calm down, Steve. I don't like Sunak either. I have never liked him. He was disloyal to the Prime Minister and to the Conservative Party. As for your talk of perverts???? Where have you been all summer? Have you looked at the SNP on that one? We nearly heard more about that than we did about car ferries.

@@silondon9010 That's why we are building a socialist equitable society in Scotland. We have all the land, all the free alternative energy. EV's are powered free in Scotland.

SNP we're getting worried they would lose support after Boris went, boy have the heavens called. LIZ Is a walking Neo-boris. 😂
The Tories have done the impossible 4x in a row now , with each successive PM worse than previous Cameron, May , Johnson and now Truss heading for Downing street. Truss as PM would be hilarious if not for the fact that she will cause irreparable harm
If Nelson Mandela were the new Tory leader it would be seen as a driver for another referendum.You might be conned don't expect the rest of us to be.
Well I doubt someone that says the best thing to do with Scotlands first minister is ignore them is really going to have much sway over the Scottish people

Yes.
@@angussoutter7824 you do realise of that would happen, Scotland would be nearly on parity in population to a smaller England. That amount of working populace would galvanise a fledging independent country even more, especially once joining the EU.

The Empire is dead it merely awaits its burial. And for an English politician (of any party) to attempt to tell us what and when we can do about anything is just ridiculous. So she starts her talk with a bare faced lie.

Of course I do.
The Scots were at the forefront of British Emperial expansion.

These two can barely stop the English from tearing each other apart, what hope do they have of holding onto Scotland too?
None. The answer is none.

So why are the English worried about Scottish independence, Guess why ? There won't be any UK Union left. Even the Union Jack will have to visit the drawing board.
06:29 "rebuilding our economy post covid" c'mon it's Brexit, and everyone with a brain can understand that now. besides other European countries have recovered from Covid. The UK has been driven backward and the Scottish people just want to leave and never hear from the Tories ever again.
do you always type bull?
@@lion73266 ask anyone in Scotland almost everyone wants independence because everything favours England and not us
You do know that had Scotland gained independence back in 2014 it would of caused all of the UK to be thrown out of the EU. Brexit may have been wrong but at least it was put to a vote. Sturgeon and the SNP would of had us all taken out without any say in the matter whatsoever.
@@mattl1025 it is fact, the EU acknowledged this. The EU treaty was with the UK, had Scotland become independent that treaty would have been voided.
@@gazsm1 an unfair vote as whatever England decides, in the "union", England gets. That's the advantage of having the biggest population... Had Scotland had the biggest population in the UK, at this moment in time we wouldn't be in that mess and would still be part of the EU. Big difference...
For what is possibly the next leader of the UK to say the best thing to do with the first minister of Scotland is to ignore her is blatantly saying ignore Scotland!!! Love or hate Sturgeon she is the leader of OUR government yet the UK government thinks our government is best ignored. Says it all.
Westminster ignores everything and everyone outside London.
Don’t forget Starmer has also said he wouldn’t support a referendum
In my opinion Scotland is very important part of the United Kingdom and many people are worried about Scots breaking off, that means Scottish are very important part of the UK. Although, I believe that country with a developed economy and rich culture like Scotland is capable enough to decide for themselves and out of respect to them England shouldn’t be meddling into their national decisions.
Problem from the English POV is, that these referendums are risky business, many people who voted to leave E.U now regret it. Deciding with your heart is not always the best option and people who vote don’t usually bother to make deeper political analysis. Look at Biden, he got so many votes and few months after the elections people were ashamed to admit they voted for him

England is so Tory-dominant that the UK wouldn't have had a Labour government without Scottish and Welsh votes until 1997. That's how much the current system favours the Conservative Party. The Scots voting SNP in general elections makes it nigh-on impossible to get rid of the Tories. As a Welshman (who has never voted Labour or Conservative), I would implore the Scots to vote for UK-wide parties if they really want change (realistically Labour or the Lib Dems). It would be more useful to all of us on this island if the Scots ruled instead of seeing Westminster as some foreign power. The country badly needs a competent opposition.

They are not even asking permissiom for one.
@@NA-gf1zy It's not asking for Independence; it's asking for a democratic referendum on the subject. A lot has changed since and if you still oppose independence you can just vote No. Why do people insist that holding another referendum is an affront to what was voted before, it's just an opinion poll where No can win again! The fact that people insist on not holding a referendum implies that you think that Yes will win, which then implies that you think a majority of people support independence, which then implies that there is a mandate for another referendum...
@@h-Qalziel it was once in a generation vote which was a phrase coined by the SNP. The SNP were clear then that you don’t get to make such a momentous decision on the future of Scotland and the UK every time public opinion shifts, or things change, no matter how much. Public opinion changes often and so whilst it may be favourable for a yes vote one week, it can easily shift back the next.
The referendum was incredibly expensive and divisive but Scotland voted to stay in the Union through good times and bad. If after a generation there is an overwhelming need for another one, then they can start to make the case for independence at that time.
That’s why you don’t see other democratic countries like Canada and Quebec holding them very often, even though those who voted yes but lost want to keep having referendums until they get their way.
The SNP will say whatever they need and go back on their promise of once in a generation to persuade Scotland to leave the UK. I think the majority of Scots prefer to have the SNP in devolved government to represent them, but that does not translate to wanting to break up the UK. Scottish voters know they have a good thing going as part of the UK and are far too clever to fall for the lies.
@@Tao_Tology But percentage wise, more people in Scotland voted for SNP at the last Scottish elections than those that voted Tory in the last GE. And virtually nobody votes for the lying Tory party in Scotland, do they dear....

As the biggest trading block in the world uses the Euro, which is worth loads more than the Pound, and is more stable, Scotland would probably adopt that. It's insignificant in the independence question though.

It’s funny how the Tories see a need to save the Union but at the same time will not allow Scotland to leave the Union, so what needs saving? Am I missing something?
They're just desperately trying to stop England going down the shitter after Scotland breaks up the UK. Good luck with that, Liz 🤣🤣😉
Scotland deserve independence.
2:51: A message from a Tory leader that resonates with Scotland and that requires savvy and nuance to deliver? Truss or Sunak will definitely be able to do that. 🤣

I'm no a fan of them , but as govts go mate they've done a bang-up job . That's why in 2015 the had a world record landslide 56/59 seats . We had 1 Labour , 1 Tory and 1 Libdem . We had more Pandas than opposition MPs .
So what's awful ?
Today's Sunday Times poll shows that for the first time a majority in Northern Ireland wants a united Ireland . Thank you Liz Truss - you appear to have achieved something even B.Johnson was not able to do.

Dereliction of duty. Mr,I really think you should take a good look at what your party has been doing for the past 12years and by the way the electorate have not voted either Tory candidate with there policies into government, the Tory party are! Utter arrogance!
It’s soo funny all these Tory’s saying how Scottish independence is a distraction from solving the challenges the Scottish people are facing. Well maybe if any single one of them were even pretending to care about the challenges the Scottish people are facing, let alone doing anything real to help them, then independence wouldn’t be such an issue. Just a thought

@@TomTheLadiesMan The problem in the union is England. Selfishness and content for others.

Scottish independence is a matter of time. Either the Westminster government likes it or not.
"Independence", bankruptcy, no currency and destitution with no accessible resources and businesses. Yeah, good luck with that, Kostas.

More Westminster ignores the call for Scottish independence referendum 2 bigger the demand for independence is going to bare fruit .. scottish independence is a certainty .
The ultimate certainty is that the voices will get louder if you ignore the issue.
Scottish independence is the pinnacle of self determination
I do not see the SNP as Scottish independence . That will be established by the governments after independence. I am not alone, support for parties supporting a brake up of the union has been steady or grown since 2014 despite the record in government of the SNP.
“Liz Truss is for many people a blank canvass”
Never was a truer statement made by a tory politician
Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak to replace BoJo the clown ? It’s like realising you’ve shat your pants, and then changing your vest
What might have changed since 2014 that might make a new independence vote warranted? What could it be...
Hmmm well really multiple things...
Nothing really Nicola didn't get her way so she's kept sulking.
She called it a "once-in-a-lifetime", didn't she? If they repeat their referendum, then Brexit vote should be repeated as well in the whole UK. Just to make sure we're still happy to be out of the EU.
Chapter 1, Article 1 of the UN. That is what it will come down to. It is not a union when one side overrides the other.
the Union is already broken there is a border between NI and GB.
Why are the English so upset with Scotland's push for Independence? It's their business if they want to leave the UK. Why should Scotland care what Westminster thinks? England doesn't own Scotland. If one partner wants a divorce, it's always best to just let them go. It's a Union not a Territorial Possession.
A married couple can divorce, but a nation can't? That's asinine.
I am disgusted by that audio tape
It's not up to the sociopathic billionaire or the psychopathic cheese-woman. Scotland will have its independence vote, whatever the democracy-deniers and -abusers may like to think. Tories have not won an election in Scotland since the 1950's and, following Johnson, Truss will only help the indy cause. Democracy will not be denied and westminster rules are trumped by international law and by UN charter on self-determination.
Fucking get in there ya dancer UN charter should intervene👌that would be beautiful seeing England rage at this.

11 min and 3 seconds, and not a single Scottish Pro EU and Pro Scottish independence voter were interviewed. We CU Unionists, and when Independent Scotland takes back control over Broadcasting in OUR country, we will judge you by your coverage of the majority of the people of Scotland who can only join the EU by divorcing English taxation and rule. Scotland can not afford Westminster or the Monarchy.
SNP didn’t have a plan for Scotland to join the EU in 2014 and eight years later they still don’t. No analysis, just emotional reflexivism
You realise all taxes go to the Scottish government and that’s not even enough to support their policy’s and agendas. Westminster ends up giving them more money from the rest of our taxes to bail Scotland out. So it’s more like Westminster can’t afford Scotland. If by some miracle you get independence you’ll be bankrupt pretty soon after.
I'll leave this here..

@@b34rdy As someone from NI it’s almost guaranteed that an all Ireland will become a reality in the next decade.
And as others have said it’s mostly the English fault.

@Graeme Roberts Just look at the basic geography and demographics ffs. England is the largest country in UK, and it has a population of 57 million, MORE than TEN times the amount than what Scotland has. England also has 1 megacity (London) and 2 other major cities (Birmingham, Manchester). Where-as Scotland, the next largest country, only has 2 average size cities with a population of 5 million in total. Looking at all of this, OF COURSE England is going to be the dominant country, it's just common sense. Its not that England is "aRrogAnT" or whatever you Europe lickers call us. If you want to become "free" then do it, but you're a lot more free being in the UK then what you would in Europe. You'd be forced to use the euro and you're whole country will be controlled by Brussels. And this is coming from someone who's half Welsh, you're welcome.
Truss will break up the Union! Scotland and Wales will want to leave!

I would embrace the idea that Scotland becomes independent from the shackles of the Union. Especially as Scotland did not vote for Brexit
Yeah the Scottish were totally enslaved
Rubbish - when you voted in 14 to remain you accepted the terms of a referendum, UK wide over Brexit.
How many times must it be said that the only vote required to put into effect Scottish indepedance takes place in the Edinburgh Parliament and the mandate for independance has actually increased with even more Scots than ever voting for an nationalist party who have an nationalist majority ambition and manifesto...Truss and Westminster London do not decide on the sovereign status of Scotland...This decision is not made by referendum either its made by Scots MPs...!!

Lower your flags and march straight back to England, stopping at every home you pass by to beg forgiveness for Brexit.

I have to feel for the poor Scots who like a Tory knee on their neck. I wonder who England would need to ask permission to if they decided they wanted to leave the union 🤔
