Also re the positive presence of Johnson in boosting Scot indy, IMO the best description of him this week was that he was "the Yes campaign's biggest asset". Yep, no doubt!
There is a lot of irony in the whole Scottish Independence and Brexit debates!! Just looking at generalities, the UK want to leave the EU to be able to control their own destiny but do not want Scotland to be independent!! Scotland wants independence from the Union so it can control its own destiny yet then wants to join the other Union and give up some of that independence!!!
I get its far more complex than that but the irony is still there!!
