Think of the opportunities for the Scottish politicians who hand out the newly created, highly paid jobs.So how are you going to pay for Defence, Universities, Health etc as Devexwarrier posted, are you going to blindly vote to be independent and hope they can sort it later or have all these details already been discussed so the move will be quick and painless.
I think I see what you mean. How can they make a choice if they are not reliably informed of the consequences of voting to leave. Yes, good point. We can take the Brexit referendum as a case in point. One would hope that the voters are reliably informed, but we can't guarantee that. Then again, there will be those who vote to leave at any price and those who vote to stay at any price. Not ideal, but it doesn't mean that a third party should necessarily deprive Scotland of its status as a country and it's individual democratic rights.This is the point how can they make the right decision when they don't know what will happen as Devexwarrier posted.
How can you vote at a General Election when you don't know howbthe next 4 to 5 years are going to pan out?.....I think I see what you mean.

You vote on what is in the Manifesto and hope over the next few years they do what they said they would.How can you vote at a General Election when you don't know howbthe next 4 to 5 years are going to pan out?.....
Exactly. Often they don't. We don't however, use that as a reason why we should no longer have General Elections.You vote on what is in the Manifesto and hope over the next few years they do what they said they would.
If the results of elections forecast the result of referendums then the UK would still be in the EU.She has, through the various elections she and her party have won since 2014.
The difference is they tell us what they plan to do, have they told you how they are going to pay for Defence, Universities, Health as @devexwarrior asked earlier in the thread?Exactly. Often they don't. We don't however, use that as a reason why we should no longer have General Elections.
I don't think anyone voted for Sunak!I completely agree, but they are the MPs that have been voted in. An argument for fptp, but that's for another day/thread.
