Scotland could be £12billion a year worse off

By *inkyHnS OP Couple over a year ago

The Council of Elrond

Scottish government analysis concludes Scotland's economy could be £12.7bn a year worse off under a so-called hard Brexit

Now how many would be willing to accept this to keep your wee UK union together?

Now can you see why Scotland's people must be allowed to make their own minds up with having a new independence referendum as Scotland's majority voted to remain in the EU and single market

Scotland in the UK and the EU is best financially for Scotland, for the UK and for the EU. We can get richer together, or get poorer apart. Just cancel Brexit.

CLCC are you willing to see Scotland be £12 billion a year worse off with a hard brexit ?

What is it you want Scotland to do just sit and wait to be hit with being £12 billion worse off ?

Thank you so much for caring about Scotland

Btw the Yoon nutter media up here is Scotland claim the want the SNP to stop talking about independence and get on with the day job

Well the Herald has this as a headline

''Nicola Sturgeon refuses to discuss referendum after criticism''

Also by yoon logic they want Nicola to talk about a new independence referendum they really should make up their minds

Well Nicola was clear as hell yesterday once the final deal on brexit is known then she will decide on if to hand in the section 30 order to downing st

Whyis it unionists never listen as Nicola has said this time and time again but for now she is seeking to find the best possible deal for the whole of the UK and that is to stay in the single market how clear do you want Nicola to make it before it registers in your heed ?

Has there been an analysis of the cost of Scotland leaving the UK? A hard indy and a soft indy?

There is no way Scotland could leave the UK before the UK leaves the EU, so Scotland would be doubly fucked if out of the UK and out of the EU.

That would be interesting as the last time they did that they based all their economic figures based on oil being 120 dollars a barrel...

I think Brexit also shows how complicated a split would be, and it would be much more complicated than leaving the UK, especially with a lot more national security complications on both sides.

Yet you "strategically" didn't reply and quote so you would see me saying that's because leaving the UK and the EU would make Scotland even poorer. You didn't answer my question though. Would you still want an independent Scotland know that it will cost even more than £12bn per year?

Figures from Glasgow University say that Scotland would lose £7bn a year from the ending of the Barnett Forumla, and it had previously estimated an income of £4bn a year from North Sea oil and gas. Now seeing how North Sea oil and gas was a net drain on the treasury last year, we will conservatively reduce that down to an income of £0. So £7bn plus £4bn makes £11bn a year loss to Scotland if they were to become independent, add that to the £12bn announced as a cost of leaving the EU, that would make Scotland at least £23bn a year worse off.

I would also posit that the effect of leaving both would compound, however I am unable to quantify by how much so we will have to leave that, and simply call the £23bn a very conservative estimate.

The population of Scotland is 5.3m, so independence would cost the people of Scotland, every man, woman and child, £4,339.62, each and every year. Do you think that everyone in Scotland can afford that Kinky? Or would want to pay that?

Norway a country of 5 million + people have as much oil as the UK do

Norway's wealth fund hits £1 Trillion

Norway is in the single market

Now lets look at Scotland

Scotland has 5 million + people and if Scotland were to become independent then yes Scotland has alot of Scottish waters

And at present our Scottish government are fighting to make sure the UK and if not the UK then Scotland remains in the single market

So how come people think Norway a country of 5 million people can be independent and really successful then how in the hell can Scotland not do the same ?

Oh wait i forgot Scotland is far too poor and stupid to be ever independent we need help from England to fund us and help us out lol

Many of the journalists going through the Scottish Government Brexit report with a fine tooth comb have spent the last 18 months pointedly ignoring the fact Westminster is forcing us out of the EU without any research plan or basic competence

The SNP campaign against Brexit, saying it would be an unmitigated disaster. Scottish voters votes against Brexit by massive margin. Scottish Tories branch conclusion? "The SNP should focus on making a success of Brexit''

GERS does not show what an independent Scotland would look like but it does show you what ill effects that Scotland has with being in the UK you know where the UK government control the money and where the present Uk government are adding to the debt and borrowing more and cant meet a single target and Scotland has no borrowing powers as thats not devolved lol

In your opinion

let me think what about 60 million in rUK if you take out Scotland

Neither CCLC, myself or many other who are in favour of the UK Union want to see Scotland leave the EU's single market. We don't want to see any part of the UK leave. If you also don't want Scotland to leave the EU's single market then, rather than using it as an excuse for your independence argument, why don't you work more with others around the UK, as Nicola actually is, to try and prevent it. Maybe you actually are willing to see the whole UK £120+ billion a year worse of if it makes Scott's independence more likely?

Scotland's share of trade with the EU has shrunk over the past few years but that is not what the OP wants to hear.

You can only state they are potential customers of Scotland.

We already have a solid customer base with the RUK.

Scotland would need to reapply to the EU and satisfy the other nations before entry.

Small matters like deficit and currency would need to be over come and remember we would not have T hatchers rebate when we start contributing! !!

I could twist that and say seems alot of people outside of Scotland do not care that Scotland could be £12billion a year worse off by staying in the UK and outside of the EU and single market

Now like i said i hope to god England changes it minds and stays in the single market but i aint hanging about living in hope that England chooses to stay in the EU or single market that may never happen and Scotland has to do what is in its best interests and that is staying in the single market

"Is this £12 be ON TOP of the £24bn they would be worse off from leaving the UK?

That’s a real shitter if it is!

Better pray for a soft brexit and staying in the union then?

Where you getting that figure from ?

Where is the so called leaving the UK and Eu impact papers eh ? Oh wait you have none made up bullshit to scare people off

One thing is for sure though unionists do not seem to be trying to say Scotland being £12billion a year worse off with a hard brexit is a lie ? VERY TELLING!!!!

I'm already convinced that the UK leaving the EU is going to cost us all billions, why would I argue against the Scottish impact papers when they say pretty much exactly what I'd expect?

Now there is impact papers telling you what Scotland would face by being out of the UK and EU so people are making up numbers "

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I believe that both Scotland and England would be worse off separated whether either or both are inside the EU or not. I also believe that both would be even more worse of if they are not in the same customs union and single market. So, while I don't want Scotland to be £12 billion worse of and the UK as a whole even mote so, by leaving the EU I even less want Scotland, England and the UK as a whole to be a lot more worse off by breaking up the UK's single market and customs union. Scotland's independence from the UK would do nothing to mitigate the effects of BREXIT and can only add to and compound the detrimental effects to both Scotland, England and the rest of the UK. Solutions are meant to mark things better, not worse.

say it is a hard brexit for the UK and it will make Scotland £12billion a year worse off staying in the UK would you accept this or would you be saying Scotland should get the hell away while they have the chance ?

I will be honest it comes across that way

Right this is to make things very clear

Scotland voted by a majority to remain in the EU and single market

England voted by a majority and so did Wales to leave the EU but didnt vote to leave the single market which is good as England and Wales still have a change to save themselves on that

You keep on telling me and other pro indy supporters we should respect the 2014 result to remain part of the UK i have done this and i also respect the wishes of England to leave the EU i hope England and Wales fight to remain part of the single market but like i said Scotland aint hanging about and living in hope to see if England changes its mind and stays in the single market or cancels brexit

Scotland has to prepare for a hard brexit and what we can do to stop this from happening here in Scotland now before Scotland is hit will being £12billion a year worse off by staying in the UK and out of the EU and single market

none of you can give a real true figure your making up numbers as there is no impact papers to say if Scotland will be even more worse off out of the UK and EU stop making shit up and produce figures real figures coming from experts

Wow just wow

yes i know Britain is an Island might wanna tell others that as some see it as a country lol

What i mean is Scotland does not have full control over non devolved matters

So why should English MP's for example tell Scottish people want we should get in a set budget and what powers we should get thats not neighbors thats dictating terms thats no family of nations

Anyone wanna challenge that ? Then i simply have to put the Scotland bill that was Westminster and unelected Lords telling us Scots what we can have in powers

You do know that this £12 billion is all assumption don't you, there is not one iota of practical evidence that makes that figure.

It's all based on assumption no one knows what is going to happen when Brexit comes around hard or soft.

Just reported on 5 live that these figures are guess work, but hey it's the bbc so you wont accept that will you.

Scotland is staying put matey and all your whinging and flag flying and going on about how hard done by Scotland is you aint going anywhere.

Your mostly just a lone voice that will not accept the true facts that are put in front of you.

So the economists that are experts are lying then ? Funny how unionists love trusting experts on anything anti independence but when it clearly shows Scotland will be worse off in a hard brexit UK no no the experts all of a sudden have not to be trusted lol

BBC 5 live ? Lol yeah ok trust the BBC they never lie to people lmao

Sadly for you that is not upto you to decide if Scotland were to become independent as you dont live in Scotland lol

lone voice ? yeah ok so i am the only one that supports Scottish independence now lol

You seen the youtube videos titled ''Journey to yes''

i would if i were you as that is no voters that now back independence

Bristol East

The two referenda - Scotland in the UK, and the UK in the EU - make interesting comparisons.

In both - and I'm being very simplistic to make a point - the arguments came down to:

- stay, you'll be poorer if you leave

- leave, and you can be a nation again

Scotland heeded the warnings and voted with the head; the UK (or more accurately England & Wales) ignored the "experts" and voted with the heart.

For better or worse, Scotland renewed its marriage vows with England.

We're all in this together, as someone who is best forgotten once said. And I suspect we are ALL going to be poorer for a while as a result.

So do you have the impact papers and figures there to show if Scotland will be worse off out of the UK and EU ?

I've already answered you. I think Scotland would be a lot more than £12 billion worse of if it breaks away from the UK. Independence will not mitigate the impact of BREXIT it will compound it, and here's the impact study to show it.

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/236579/scotland_analysis_macroeconomic_and_fiscal_performance.pdf

It concludes that Scottish trade with the rest of the UK could fall by 80% and average annual incomes in Scotland by 25% as a direct result of independence. Just to be absolutely clear:- The report says that Scotland's exports to the UK could drop by £40 billion a year leading to a decrease in average incomes in Scotland of £6,000 per year as a direct result of independence.

Don't try and tell me you actually give a shit about Scotland being £12 billion worse of per year when your solution is forecast to actually make Scotland £40 billion a year worse off.

Like i said, solutions are meant to make things better, not worse.

Wow listen to yourself

So let me get this right

your telling people that not everyone voted in Scotland on the EU referendum

fact not everyone voted in the Scottish independence referendum and guess what no voters keep saying the will of the majority of Scotland's no vote should be respected

Then by that logic Scotland's majority remain vote should also be respected

and the people that didnt vote well tough shit their vote dont count

England voted by a majority and so did Wales to leave the EU but didnt vote to leave the single market which is good as England and Wales still have a change to save themselves on that

The UK as a whole voted to leave the EU and the single market. All the leading figures of both the Remain campaign and the Leave campaign said a vote to Leave the EU meant leaving the single market. The Prime minister at the time David Cameron made this point numerous times on several occasions during the EU referendum campaign.

Scotland has never joined the EU as an independent nation. Scotland only has membership of the EU as part of the UK. That's why the EU referendum was a UK wide vote. It's also why the UK Supreme court ruled in the Gina Miller case that Scotland has no say in Brexit, because the UK Parliament took us into the EU in the 1970's and only the UK Parliament in Westminster can take us out now. It's about time you started to respect the democratic decision that the UK as a whole made to Leave the EU and the single market and also respect UK law as administered by the UK Supreme court that ruled Scotland has no say in the Brexit process because it is not a devolved issue.

There is no impact papers to say what Scotland would face being out of the UK and the EU so please stop with that shite

Did your UK government do brexit impact papers ? No they did not!!

But you are the person saying that to avoid £12 billion per year from BREXIT you want independence which would lose £40+ billion a year.
