⏰ Tune in now: bbc.co.uk/iplayer/guide/…

.@Ianblackford_MP: “Mr Speaker, In the last few hours, the President of the European Commission said that the ‘next few days are going to be decisive’ in the Brexit negotiations.”

.@Ianblackford_MP: “With just two weeks to go, it is a disgrace that businesses and people have been left with this crippling uncertainty and the real threat of food and medicine shortages ahead of the new year.”

.@Ianblackford_MP: “One year ago, at the general election, Scotland rejected this Prime Minister, rejected this Tory Government and rejected their extreme Brexit.
 
People in Scotland now need to know the price they will be forced to pay.”

.@Ianblackford_MP: “Ahead of any vote in Parliament, will the Prime Minister commit to releasing a detailed economic impact assessment of the cost to the UK of his extreme Tory Brexit plans?”

.@Ianblackford_MP: “I’m not surprised the Prime Minister didn’t want to answer the question because he knows the UK is poorer and worse off as a result of the extreme Tory Brexit, and the cost continues to soar.”

.@Ianblackford_MP “The Warwick study estimates Scotland has already lost £4bn as a result of Brexit. Bloomberg Economics estimates the UK has lost £200bn by the end of this year. And Scottish Government analysis estimates every person in Scotland will be £1,600 worse off.”

.@Ianblackford_MP: “Scotland has been completely ignored by Westminster throughout the Brexit process - and now we are being kept in the dark over the devastating price we will be forced to pay.”

.@Ianblackford_MP:”People in Scotland aren’t willing to suffer the consequences of this economic vandalism.
 
Sixteen consecutive polls have shown a majority independence and Mr Speaker it’s little wonder.”

.@Ianblackford_MP: “Isn’t it as clear as day, that the only way left to protect Scotland’s interests and our place in Europe is to become an independent country?”
