WHEN the hurly-burly’s done and the SNP have won, what then? Will it be Covid as usual or the begging Section 30 letter to Boris, or will an indy majority put pressure on Westminster by passing the draft Referendum Bill, with a flexible date?
If the SNP go to sleep on the referendum, their membership will slip away like snow off a dyke. They cannot ignore the fact that their core support is for independence, not the myriad policies they’ve promised in the manifesto. The power grab and the Brexit disaster are here now, and the economic recovery will need rather more than the Tories’ Union Jacks and royal yachts.
