On the anniversary of Scotland's removal from the EU while voting to remain, lotsa torchlit processions happening in Scotland tonight to highlight this fact and endorse the continuing support for re-joining the EU asap.
Note Business for Scotland has declared Brexit a ‘slow motion car crash’, three years after Scotland was removed from the European Union against its will. BFS argues that none of the proposed benefits from the UK Government have come to light and that the only way for Scotland to ‘fix’ the issue of Brexit is to re-join the EU as an independent nation. Bring it on eh!!
The IMF is now forecasting that the UK economy will perform worse than every other major economy in the world, including internationally sanctioned Russia. Brexit is essentially a ‘self imposed sanction’ that is proving to be more damaging than the international community acting to deliberately damage a nation's economy.
Brexit has made Britain a laughing stock. It has sent a signal to the world that Britain is small-minded, that Britain doesn’t want investment, that Britain doesn’t want skilled migrants, that Britain doesn’t want to trade openly and doesn’t want to be part of the European family of nations. But Scotland is not Britain.
Scotland wholeheartedly rejected Brexit in the referendum and Brexit has been an unmitigated disaster for Scotland. A recent poll found that 69% of Scottish voters would vote to re-join the EU and I expect an independent Scotland to do just that. Independence is normal - TELL A FRIEND!!
