No Nuclear Submarine base or Royal Navy on the Clyde if the SNP has its way.

 No Nuclear Submarine Base or Royal Navy on the Clyde if the SNP has its way.

An Independent Scotland will remove the Faslane base, its nuclear submarine docks, the Royal Navy facilities and repair yards. ( A lot of jobs will go with them).

The SNP has once again been trumpeting about independence for Scotland, and how that visionary First Minister Nicola Sturgeon believes her new version of Scotland will function on international matters. Totally ignoring all the economic implications of breaking with the United Kingdom, totally ignoring the implications of building Scotland's economy from scratch, totally ignoring the reality of building Scotland's 'new' currency from ground zero ( Euro's?).

More seriously Sturgeon says that the independent Scotland will remove all nuclear weapons from Scottish territory which includes closing down all the Royal bases on the Clyde and also shutting down the Royal Air Force bases in Scotland. 

No mention of how this is to be achieved of course, or what impact all that will have on Scotland's economy (thousands of jobs lost). Plus the great glaring question as to how will Scotland create its own military ?

Over to you First Minister Sturgeon.



Meanwhile on the Covid Front....

Now Nicola Sturgeon and her SNP Health Secretary are announcing a 'return to normality' across Scotland as Covid restrictions are relaxed (allegedly). But some controls remain in place and Sturgeon's concept of normality is being denounced by some commentators, who think that Nicola has become addicted to the powers that controlling Covid in Scotland gave her. powers and authority that she does not want to let go.

Of course Covid is to blame for all Scotland's current economic failings, and the failings of the NHS in Scotland - it cannot possibly be that the SNP policies have created those problems. 

It is always someone else to blame.

Time for Sturgeon and the SNP to go......
