Subject: RE: BS: UK General Election
Allan, have you ever studied the views of Jim Sillars?
His and mine coincide almost exactly, I am a social conservative, and a socialist politically. David Carter UK obviously does not understand this philosophy.

Back to Independence and Brexit, I am Still very much in favour of Scottish Independence, but think it will be much easier to attain after we (the UK) have extricated ourselves from the EU.
I want to see our people in proper employment not existing in a parasitical lifestyle dependent on cheap foreign labour, which is bad for everyone including the countries that the immigrants hail from.
We need to spend real money on mass retraining schemes in which people will be taught how to perform jobs which are of real value to the Scottish economy.
I would also like to see one years compulsory work experience for all school leavers who were not capable of further education.
A life on derisory benefits must not be an option for our young people.

Independence must mean more than saltire waving, we need to create a completely new society for our new Nation. The little reforms visualised by Sturgeon and the comfortably fat Westminster Scottish MP's will not suffice. A new way of thinking is required for all our citizens.
