Project Fear 2 and Europe for Scotland
With less than a week to go to voting at Holyrood the media has been awash with nostalgia as all platforms and mediums beamed out Project Fear 2. Nicola Sturgeon was hounded from studio to studio and a sort of feeding frenzy emerged as papers and programmes tried to out-bid each other in the war against a referendum: “Nicola Sturgeon struggles to answer key questions about Scottish independence” tried the Telegraph, “Independence would result in a hard border” said The Scotsman, “Nicola Sturgeon dealt ‘hammer blow’ as RBS warns it will move to London under independence” cried the Daily Express … and on and on. The Herald focused on the fact that the FM didn’t claim she’d remove Trident immediately and banks and companies lined up to say they’d leave if people voted to govern themselves.

Just recently Keir Starmer has been busy wrapping himself in the Union Jack, with the suggestion that by doing so Labour can win back the “red wall” seats. There are three very obvious problems with this.
First, “progressive patriotism” isn’t a new turn for Labour, anything but.
In 1997 Tony Blair had a go with his “vision for a young country.” Then Gordon Brown stood in front of an enormous Union Jack and declared “British jobs for British workers.”
Ed Miliband coined the phrase “one nation Labour” for his version.
