And All That It Contains?

Independence is opposed by half of voters in Scotland, and apart from a few who intended to vote for parties with little or no chance of winning any Holyrood seats, the rest support the SNP, which is not actively pursuing it.

On the contrary, the SNP will not even award a contract to build ferries for Caledonian MacBrayne, which the Scottish Government owns, to Ferguson Marine, which the Scottish Government owns.

Instead, the work has been sent to Poland, as if Britain were still in the EU. The SNP may not be pursuing independence, but it is pretending that Rejoin has already happened.

  1. Could Westminster take control of these things?

    1. Yes, by primary legislation. To what could the SNP object? The guarantee of jobs in Scotland?
