SNP MSP Nicola Sturgeon Simply acts on her own personal emotions and denies responsibility for failures.
Jim Sillars properly nails Nicola Sturgeon to the Wall here.
"Nicola Sturgeon has got the SNP into a Brexit fankle.
Her many official statements are based on a false interpretation of the referendum result.
Yes, 1.6million Scots voted for the UK to Remain with the EU, but there is no evidence that they made a side decision for an independent Scotland, through Indyref2, to re-join it, if England, Wales and Northern Ireland left it.
The referendum ballot paper posed a specific question and that alone was the one we answered."
"Having started out on a false premise, her string of claims and demands have exposed someone whose tongue has run way ahead of the brain.
There’s a fatal flaw in the SNP position. It is blind to the real nature of the EU run by an unelected elite who are contemptuous of democracy, and uncaring about people. SNP parliamentarians pour peons of praise on Brussels but never mention Greece and Portugal under their cosh of primitive austerity.
Two weeks ago, Greek police tear-gassed OAPs, who were protesting about yet another cut in pensions by a left-wing government taking instructions from Brussels.
In Portugal, a socialist government has been told to ladle on more misery despite there being 2.6million people in absolute poverty.
Why would the SNP want us to join an outfit who do that to people?
The EU that existed in the 80s, when I fashioned the party’s policy of independence in Europe is no more.
Looking at the EU now, why would the SNP seek to escape from the union with England, then surrender ourselves to a far larger union where, as Germany’s dictation to Greece shows, a small country can be bullied into submission?
Nicola’s position is a mix of confusion and delusion. She harps on about the single market, and does not seem to understand that there is a difference between that and access to the market.
The single market gives access at a price that virtually means staying in because it has rules including public contract procurement and power exercised by the European Court of Justice.
Nicola keeps quiet on the single market rules that forced the Caledonian MacBrayne contract to go out to tender, and stopped the Scottish government making public contracts conditional on the winning company paying the living wage.
Nicola should pay more attention to trade statistics than a daily headline, because whereas the UK exports some £228billion annually to the EU 27, they export £290billion to us, facts that make the chances of a free trade agreement outside single market rules a distinct possibility.
Next time she goes to Berlin and Brussels, she might point out their £62billion trade advantage is not something they should throw away."
