      Oh that’ll be a great way for Reform to not get a single vote in Scotland lol.

      Anyway, this is all part of a Reform-style power grab designed to reduce democracy in the UK.

      Reducing the size of the Scottish Parliament is hugely beneficial to Reform in the longterm. Because it’s part of a plan to make it easier to consolidate far-right power.

      And for those in England who think this is irrelevant to us, it is not. If they’re willing to go after Scottish parliamentary democracy, which most Scottish voters support, don’t think they’re going to be friendly to your democratic rights either.

      Poll: [Where do Scotland and Wales stand on devolution?](https://yougov.com/en-gb/articles/50542-where-do-scotland-and-wales-stand-on-devolution) suggests that over half of Scots want devolution with more powers than they currently have.

    3. So it’s ok to overturn a referendum by winning an election. Good to know

      Doesn’t sound like that will be a popular platform in Scotland. Perhaps it is intended to gain support elsewhere?

    5. This is purely for the section of their brainwashed who hate Scotland and think we are a drain on their (English) resources

      Try to think of a choice that would do more damage to the union.

      You can’t

      Makes you wonder which country this idea came from.

      Catnip to Unionists, and sadly this is a ‚thing‘ because Unionist parties have basically spat the dummy out since the SNP started winning elections.

      Every successive government in WM since 2015 has chipped away at Devolution and the *’Scottish’* arms of the corresponding parties have shrugged their shoulders and whistled.

      Comes from a party lead by Tice (split time between uk and Dubai) and Farage who is never in Clackton.

    9. Yay just the distraction we all needed a good ole Scottish revolt. That’ll stop us thinking about the economy or realising they sold the NHS.

      The point is to force division.

      Their Russian donors want as many tiny states as possible, all with their own agendas and weaknesses to exploit rather than fewer relatively harmonious nations in opposition.

      They are the party of traitors dressed up as patriots.
