"Scotland's Constitution Secretary Mike Russell said the new law will mean, on devolved matters, Scottish law can keep in line with those in Europe "when appropriate and practicable to do so"."
"The SNP politician also said the new law will make it much easier for Scotland to rejoin the EU if the country gained independence from the UK."

Now, you're cooking!

"Express.co.uk readers have reacted furiously to the news, as they claim SNP was wasting resources when it should have been focusing on the coronavirus pandemic and the needs of Scottish people."

#Express at it again - Telling readers how they should think & feel!
"One reader said: "For the love of God, why does this woman not give it a rest and focus on the NEEDS of Scotland ... Health, Economy, Infrastructure, Education for a change???""

Obviously never heard of MULTI-TASKING!!
"Another third said: "This woman and her separatists are dangerous and guilty of wasting shedloads of money, there is no one to keep them to account, they are out of control."

And exactly, what does this reader think is happening in Westminster?!? 🤣🤣🤣
A change of news source is strongly recommended or #Express readers risk being "LEFT BEHIND"!

And the dubious manner of awarding lucrative government contracts to cronies of Tory Party and UK Government, not forgetting the sheer scale of the wasted taxpayer money 👇

And UK Government's reckless waste of taxpayer money isn't exactly 'value for money'! 👇

"Other readers mocked the SNP for wanting to realign with the EU."

Whatever happened to, "the will of the people"?

This just proves the point - #Express is NOT representative of the views of men and women in Scotland!!

Yet, it claims to be the, "voice of Britain"! Image
#ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 is a matter to be decided by Scots, as and when, they express this as their will!!

Caveat: This article is sourced from @Daily_Express !!!

"End of Sturgeon?"

Frankly, an appropriate response from @NicolaSturgeon might be to quote the infamous Mark Twain response to an erroneous 'obituary' known to all...

"The reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated."
More accurately, the media have quoted:

"Ms Sturgeon said she had a “real job to do” and was focused on guiding Scotland through the Covid-19 pandemic."

It's very reassuring to hear that @scotgov and @ScotGovFM have prioritised safeguarding lives and Scotland, above all else.

"Speaking on RTÉ's Morning Ireland, Mr Martin said: "We need to dial down the rhetoric on both sides.""

"He added that people need to bear in mind that it is only about six weeks since the Brexit deal was agreed."
"I would say in the context of the island of Ireland and Northern Ireland and we all need to cool it down because I think that the debate around protocol got to too high a level, and tensions were rising unnecessarily."

Evolution takes time!!

...and it is generally easier to build on earlier successes, rather than creating something from scratch. Image

"No matter how bad the economy might look, no matter what government ineptitude might be revealed, no matter the injustices arising from people, corporations or institutions on the make – " 1/2

We need look no further than Tory UK Government, it's donors and loyal supporters!
"I believed that given the freedom of speech and expression, the freedom of association and reliable rule of law, British people – who enjoy those liberties and are innocent until proven otherwise – could tackle all the problems we face."

This glosses over Brexit corruption!
"I would ask why should Scots settle for running Scotland when we could run Britain?"

Frankly, this is a prime example of manipulation!

#LittleEngland, the mouse that is too feart to pursue #EnglishIndependence but dragged Scotland, Wales & NI along with it, seeks #Empire 2.0!

@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot The UK is no longer the UK it was in 2014, due to rampant corruption and illegalities in actions of Tory UK Government.

theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
@StarstuckT @Odiepops @YesScot Furthermore, one of many lies used to coerce and manipulate UK electorate is that #ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 would result in Scotland having to leave the EU.

In 2014, there was no open discussion that UK was considering staging a referendum on whether or not UK would leave the EU.

"Maugham has, over recent months, launched crowdfunding for a legal challenge to the appointment of Dido Harding – wife of Tory MP and government “Anti-Corruption Champion” John Penrose – "
"- as head of the newly formed National Institute for Health Protection, without any interview process or open competition."

"It has ongoing proceedings aimed at answering the question “Just how does public money end up in the pockets of Cummings’s friends?” "
"Separately, last week it opened the latest in a series of cases against the Department of Health to shed light on the award of PPE contracts worth more than £250m to Saiger, a Florida-based jewellery company with no experience of supplying PPE."
