Scottish “Independence Is Dead!” John Swinney Promises ‘New Chapter’ For The SNP
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- John Swinney promised a “new chapter” as he took over as SNP leader, admitting his party has been through “a rough time”.
He was speaking after being confirmed as the only candidate to succeed Humza Yousaf, who announced last Monday he was stepping down as both SNP leader and Scottish First Minister.
He insisted he was “deeply honoured” to take on the role, promising to “give all that I have to serve my party and my country”.
It is the second time that Mr Swinney has been named as SNP leader - but this time he is also now likely to be declared as Scotland’s new first minister following a vote in the Scottish Parliament later this week.
Talk’s Mike Graham discusses the story with political editor of the Scottish Daily Mail Michael Buckley.

ScotRail was recently evaluated as one of the best performing train companies in the UK.
Scotland has more police officers per head of population than England & Wales.
7,6 million people are on England's NHS waiting lists,
That is 28% or 2,2 million higher than Scotland's entire population.

Support for independence is the same as it was at the 2014 referendum. Support for the SNP, however, has plummeted.
If all independence supporters vote SNP, they will be returned as the biggest party.
No its not , i for one wouldn`t vote for it again .

Top Unionist Gordon Brown the other week admitted ''the Independence Campaign is Stronger than Unionism'' and he also warned Unionists of ''the need for a positive argument'' if they want to keep the United Kingdom together.
@@Ken-ps9ux Well you need to start paying attention to what is happening with the UK. Borrowing £120 Billion to pay the £128 Billion debt interest payment is unsustainable and confirms the UK is finished, so Scotland needs to save itself from being part of the ruin by becoming free of Westminster control. Save yourself and Scotland instead of trying to save English voters from themselves.
Slimey John
As Finance Secretary, Swinney achieved a balanced budget every year from 2007 to 2016 and again as stand-in Finance Secretary from 2022 to 2023.
In the same time both Labour and Torie UK Government's were unable to achieve a balanced budget and the UK public sector debt is approaching 2,7 Trillion.

They have a cheek to slag the tories for the change in pm and now we have had 3 and ooh yes independence has been dead in the water since the referendum in 2014 and lets hope that the snp are going to be the same
Independence has not been ''dead in the water since 2014'' as the SNP have won every national election since 2014.

Kate Forbes is the only realistic leader we have. She's center right, she believes in Scotland. She is able to change and learn from her mistakes and old ideas.
She isn't some nationalist toss. But she simply is fighting up hill, Scotland fears a female leader after a joke of a leader Nichola was.
She's got behind Johnny Swinney, so should you

Independence isn’t dead but it should be on the back burner. We need to focuse on rebuilding the pillars of our society (economy, education, healthcare, the justice system, and culture) only then can we tackle issues such as independence but instead we have fallen into the quagmire of social politics that only widen devision’s and create no real helpful change for the people of Scotland. We have a need for Realpolitik in Scotland where we do what is achievable and beneficial rather than following fanciful ideas that cannot be achieved reasonably. Once we are back on track and have stabilised our position as a country can we try our hand at independence again.
Scotland cannot govern themselves, yet they want independence

In 2024 according to the polls about 50% of the Scottish people want Scottish independence.
Just like the 62 other countries that gained their independence from Westminster such as New Zealand, Canada, Australia and the Republic of Ireland.
Remember the bright eyed youngsters who were whipped up for independence 17 years ago are now matured and their concerns are Health,Housing, Economy and even Drugs.

Don't be a fool
@@cameronglen2202 what’s foolish is thinking the uk works. 500 odd English MPs decide how to spend Uk tax money, our money. Scotland is a tenth of the uk population yet Scotland generates a third of Uk revenues. We get an annual pocket money for our services, roughly 40% what we put in, English MPs spend the rest on weapons of mass distraction, aircraft carriers that don’t work, we can’t borrow, we can’t change our budget to suit our needs. It’s preposterous. Our trade is balanced. We were dragged out of Europe against the people of Scotland will, that should have ended the union with England right there! Being part of the uk is a fool’s errand. Now to you, don’t be a fool. Back Scotlands right to choose, again and again until we are free from this silly union. When, not if. Republic of Scotland 🏴
