@WingsScotland What I think is interesting about that is that they never paid 380k for it, so let's say they paid, 200?250? They've been married for 12 years or so? The house is around 380k, so over the course of 12 years they've paid off perhaps 40k of a mortgage while earning 250k
@afneil What I love about this is SNP supporters keep saying that they don't have any powers to change the outcome and that it's westministers fault...so why hold a roundtable when you can't do anything?
@theiaincameron When Argentina had the islands it also had no defined border between Chile, Paraguay and Brazil...how can you claim the island was yours at that time when you can't say which other parts were Argentina
@DandyDonSF Fair enough if he's making things up, but he's stating facts. They may be uncomfortable to SNP supporters but this was party policy only a few years ago
@ewangibbs Yes it can, 95 % effective tax rate when decom is taking into account. Governments have been hostile to the industry for the past ten years, flaring restrictions, how much tax relief on decom and windfall taxes have caused this.
@Innealadair@davi23111 Perhaps Ur missing the point. Neil is calling out Swinney for his crocodile tears. It was only a few years ago that the snp were wanting an end to the oil industry in Scotland, some of Swinney's colleagues at the time were standing Infront of grangemouth wanting it closed..
