She really is the worst sort of disingenuous self-indulgent weasel.
The last Indy Referendum largely fell apart on the basis that there was no consensus on what currency would be used.
It seemed to hinge upon some notional whimsy that Scotland could somehow become the next "Norway", living high on the hog on untapped oil and gas revenue. Sheer nonsense, and it will be interesting to see just how she meets her ridiculously extravagant environmental targets whilst going down that route of financing her "vision".
Not sure how well that approach will play out with the Greens, a partner she is strapped into to get a majority in the Scottish Parliament.
Then we come to the absurd contention that Scotland will simply be allowed to somehow seamlessly hop back into the EU. I've no doubt that the Spanish will be champing at the bit to veto that suggestion.
Maybe Boris should allow her the Referendum but insist upon the proviso that the winning margin has to be at least 60-40 to make the whole matter conclusive enough to stand up to future scrutiny.
You know it makes sense.
