Scottish Nationalists keep going on about a pro independence majority in parliament and that’s a mandate for a referendum.Well let’s put this to bed once and for all.
1/ You can’t have a mandate for something that’s out of a devolved parliaments control.
2/ it’s was an election on many issues not just one
3/ A parliament cannot have a mandate the winning party sets the agenda of governing .
4/ The SNP said they needed a majority they failed.
5/ The SNP lost 6 seats and 500K votes
6/ The SNP also lost heavily at the general election losing all but 9 MPs now down to 8.
7/ The greens did not have independence in their manifesto
8/ The Supreme Court ruled the Scottish Parliament cannot hold a referendum.
In conclusion the SNP have no mandate apart from to run a devolved administration and the Scottish Parliament cannot legislate for constitutional changes to hold a referendum which is outside of devolution as ruled by the Supreme Court.
@IanMurrayMP I have voted for you for the last two elections as I thought you were a decent and trusted mp,no more ,how can you and your party make these insane decisions,
Another vote lost.
@snapperup Why do we need a presiding officer who is also an msp,chances of impartiality are remote
Why not employ a complete outsider,say a retired judge who has no axe to grind,its getting more embarrassing daily
If you support @JeremyClarkson against the mob who are determined to bury free speech in a bog of self-righteous indignation please give this a like and RT.
There’s a power play going on between the politicians pushing through their own woke agenda and the general public who are sick of these woke policies Who will ultimately come out on top 🤷🏼♂️ People power or political power 🤷🏼♂️ retweet if you think people power ✅
