THE SNP need to place Brexit and its impact on the cost of living crisis “front and centre” of their case for independence as part of keeping it…
Stephen Gethins, who was the SNP MP North East Fife from 2015 to 2019, said the party needs to put more focus on how “pivotal” Brexit has been as a way of refreshing the independence argument almost a decade on from the referendum.
returned , with the way parliamentary democracy unfortunately works in the UK, then you might have a change in government but you will not have change in approach in terms of our relationship with Europe.“So I think it’s absolutely still front and centre . The UK has cut itself off from its main market, it’s cut itself off from a Europe that’s changing in response to the war in Ukraine, and it’s cutting itself from a union that respects each and every one of its member states.
“Next year you will be a decade on from the independence referendum and you should always be looking to refresh that argument. “I think, yes, there’s debates about strategy, but central to that for SNP members needs to be a debate about how you move forward the arguments for independence.”
