Scotland 🏴is better as an independent nation, just like the hundreds of other independent nations that will never join the UK.
There's seldom a solution if the problem is profitable.

Why won't Labour:?
Increase minimum wage beyond the real living wage.
Make it track the RLW + a few %.
Pass alongside related protections for workers.
This will reduce poverty, reduce the benefits bill and tax billionaires indirectly...

That is exactly why headlines and the picture often do not match with the article's conclusions at all.
It's a form of divisive brainwashing: those who expend a tiny amount of effort, research and thought know it's shite, those who glance and superficially absorb get filled with shite...

The UK gov can only promise to make electricity cheaper (reserved) for private Scottish data centre companies, but not for Scottish domestic customers, apparently.
I stress they *could* receive cheaper electricity.
Who knows with this current Labour party...

The boats are coming ashore 500 miles away in another country.
Westminster completely controls what happens to the people who land in said boats.
Vote for Scottish Independence and it's England's problem, not ours.
We can choose who we want, not some spiteful, malintent and incompetent English MPs.

Although a useful short and long term financial instrument, this usefulness would increase greatly with independence and a sovereign currency.
And before the Alistair Darling lovers jump out of the woodwork, there are over 180 sovereign currencies recognized by the United Nations.

That's almost as many currencies as there are independent nations.

I honestly think Labour's plan is to become exactly the same as Reform, but allowing Reform to win to expose they are as shite as every sensible person knows they will be, then to be automatically the next best thing offering the same, but different policies: change.
Yes.
I know this makes no sense😂

It seems as soon as left policy (I'd say moral) is announced by the SNP that would overturn a UK gov area (mitigation), social media erupts with the usual "shouldn't have them if you can't afford them" and "my taxes are feeding your kids" dubious accounts all reading from the same anti-hymn sheet...

This isn't a new rejection.
Scotland's FMs ask for budget inclusion all the time, as the simple act of planning depends upon foreknowledge.
Even when the cost of living crisis struck and emergency cash was needed, the buck was passed by Johnson, couldn't be arsed.
