You obviously haven’t heard of the Tartan Tories. Whilst conservative in their morals, they have decided to vote SNP just for independence. They are unlikely to continue to vote for the SNP if independence is achieved.

The Tories were voted into power in Westminster by the English electorate. There is one Scottish Tory MWP. The Tories are not in power in Scotland. They are, however, sharing aplatform with their soulmates, Labour, in order to try and keep the Scottish people in thrall to London.

Do you accept the right of peole who do not share your views across the UK at present to vote in as Tory government though?

I don’t want the Tories in power in the UK or Scotland but we have them in both Westminster and Holyrood.

I’m glad you accept my point that an independent Scotland would NOT be immune from Tory goverments at Holyrood.

Well, that’s democracy, I guess. I wouldn’t be happy, but hey, in a democratic Scotland, I would have to accept it.

Where did I sday give no choice?

I’m saying you should start advocating different hues of independence so we can have every option given to the people.

Wait… that isn’t practical is it?

No what we should do is give people the option of devolution or independence.

Your attempts to paint this as some Westminster conspiracy show up the poverty in your argument.

If you don’t have anything useful to say……..
