This is extreme populism "at work" and our self-determination is about the right to make the decisions about the kind of country we want to be, in the legislature that best understands our country and best represents us. Our self-determination is about political freedom from Westminster's interference. I noticed last week that the likes of Labour's Lisa Nandy doesn't believe in Scotland's independence but the poisonous populist comments attached to her were absolutely staggering and akin to someone who has not got a clue what the likes of the Scot National Party actually is and as for her populist view re the Catalonian position - totally ignorant of the facts and the history of oppression since 1 Oct 2017. She clearly holds an opinion that Westminster's interference is a good thing for Scotland and is clearly happy for Scotland to get what England votes for, like Brexit, like majority Tory rule. She's entitled to her opinion but I certainly disagree and will add that she is "way off the mark" - stupidity on stilts, coloured by a dose of ignorance but hey, she, and others of a similar ilk, are Unionists and they think they can say anything they like!! Nandy does populism and I reckon she won't recognise her stance as being that of the populist - that is exactly what it is!! I think one should just remove the word "nationalism", with all its connotations, and change it for self-determination!! Hence, in Lisa's case, "Can you be a morally good force against divisive self-determination" lol??? Time do some homework in future rather than behave like an absolute erse!!
