THE SNP seem to be waiting on everyone other than themselves to create a situation that may, possibly, magic Scotland to independence. Whereas in 2014 Alex Salmond raised the Yes vote from 25% to 45% by drive and determination.
The current leadership seem to be waiting on the polls rising to 70% without actually doing anything to encourage independence support. The polls have only improved by 2-3% under the current leadership despite the absolute chaos and disrespect shown by the Westminster government and the media.
It is high time the current SNP leadership started fighting for Scotland before it is too late. I do believe there is only a matter of days remaining before it’s too late. We are all waiting on your lead SNP!

IF Scotland doesn’t get out this corrupt UK by the end of March I won’t be voting SNP again. The whole of point of nationalism is self-rule. Scotland had no voice or say on the poll tax, Trident or austerity, and has been totally disregarded over Brexit. Why should we save a union that has plundered Scotland’s wealth for hundreds of years?

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
