Tax incentive for independence
We have all spent most of the last century hearing Nationalists yearning to break away. Then, when at last it gets through to them that the majority of us just do not want that, their leader starts reassuring us that nothing much will really change and we can all still be British. Then seeing that isn’t working, he tries to ensure he at least gets Devo Max on the ballot paper, or Indy Lite as it has been described.
Now, Mr Bayne, a leading Nationalist, reassures us further: in the event of the “Yes” vote winning, the Nationalists may not rule Scotland forever. I never thought they would. But I am amused at the thought of a Nationalist canvasser saying on the doorstep, “Don’t worry, we wouldn’t be in power all the time.”
