Scotland is a net exporter of oil,gas and electricity. We'd be on a par with Norway on the league tables if we went it alone but i'm just about giving up hope that our people will ever wake up to getting away from the westminster shitehoose.
Turning over water and electricity to the private market is absolute insanity and both that and brexit are the reasons prices are so massive in the UK. The tories get to go on the news and spout off about 'global energy problems' and not one interviewer questions them on it. Yes its having an impact in europe too but the scale of the problem is incomparable.
I was up in the Highlands on Sunday and it was striking how many bars,restaurants and shops were advertising for staff and had signs up urging customers to be patient. Normally kids from Eastern Europe would plug the gap and now it's starting to have a real impact.
