Ok, I was wrong in that one aspect. But Slovakias path is nothing like the path Scotland has chosen. I have laid out the path the SNP have chosen, let's focus on that.

Now can you answer the questions? No emojis allowed.

What’s the SNPs path got to do with anything? What is it with unionists and this idea that an independent Scotland somehow equates to an SNP Scotland? An independent Scotland may well reject the SNP vision. Independence gives us the power to do that.

It’s terrifying just how many people in Scotland have bought into the “independence = SNP = bad” narrative in the British MSM.

Try actually thinking for a change.

Because that's the policy and path that is in front of us today, I don't see an alternative.

It's legitimate to question what is in front of you, not a policy that does not exist.

Of course you don’t see an alternative. Parties that don’t openly support independence are hardly going to go public about any plans they may have in the event that it does happen. But I’d hazard a bet that even the tories in Scotland have some plan tucked away, just incase. They just aren’t going to mention them right now as it doesn’t suit their narrative that an independent Scotland is somehow economically impossible.

So you have a go at me for not considering the alternative plans, the ones that you tell me nobody has seen. Not sure you thought that one through.

You’re missing the point entirely. Any alternative plans are being hushed up by the parties that hold them. It’s not that there aren’t alternative plans, they just want people like you to believe that there aren’t any alternatives and you’re falling for it, just as they intended.

Do you have proof of these plans being hushed up?

If I had proof, don’t you think I’d be sharing those plans with everyone? There’s obviously not going to be any proof until after independence is achieved when the parties start sticking their economic policies on the table.

You only have to apply common sense though. It would be absolutely mental for them not to have plans of their own in the very likely event of independence in the near future.

I think you're giving UK parties too much credit for thinking ahead. Brexit, I rest my case M'lud.
