A pathetic walk out??? That's a tad strong ritchie TBF. The SNP have been 'shat on' for months n months and I can say that with qualification as I've observed many of the disrespectful parliamentary shenanigans down the months in live televised excerpts - absolutely disgraceful! Of course there was an element of orchestration re this 'walk out' but it was coming and it was inevitable that the 'shit was gonna hit the fan'! I also suggest you read some of the subsequent worst, racist anti Scottish press comments you could ever imagine in the usual RW shitheid English tabloids!!! Again disgraceful and reminiscent of Germany in the 1930s!!!!. The SNP's mandate has always been to eventually negotiate self-determination for Scotland. Narrow-minded to set a quest for eventual Scot indy??? Why?? A form of devolution has gradually evolved after decades n decades of angst and antagonism from the British state/govt and even a typical rejection of a slim majority Yes vote for devolution in the late 1970s. I certainly disagree with that opinion that the SNP does not represent the interests of the Scottish people and Scotland. Clearly not the interests of everyone in Scotland but 'that's life' in any country. I am not a natural SNP supporter but I share that ethos for the betterment of my country!!! Who else would currently represent the interests of the Scottish people with such conviction?? The Tories??? The fragmented Labour party? All shameless unionists (and lets include the Libdems in that shameless 'nest of vipers') who spout shit at every opportunity in a great effort to remove the SNP with their shameless RW media cohorts continuously 'under orders' to 'peddle their shit' - how tiresome!! Surely you can't be party to that kinda nonsense although you clearly don't want independence and poss still wanna leave the EU as it transpires that an even higher proportion of the Scottish people wanna remain in the EU than the previous 62% who voted 'remain' in the referendum vote. Where is this SNP hypocrisy with such a high backing to currently remain with the EU? And btw that EU status could still be changed by a post indy Scottish govt if EU membership was attained - we'd still always have the option to leave but IMO that would be dependent on the majority opinion/vote of the Scottish people anyway.
