However, I applaud the SNP in a way. If Scotland achieved independence, it would help our economy enormously.
The SNP were against the EU membership until the late 80s where they changed their view because the Scots would never vote to be isolated from the EU and the UK.
Sturgeon has her last stand during the election because if the Tories win (which the polls suggest they will with a majority) we will soon be out of the EU and the independence quest dies a death.
Scotland voted to remain in the UK and 38% voted to leave the EU. The SNP is a busted flush on 1st Feb.
