Will voters heed this new warning?

-

JUST under two years ago the ‘Yes’ campaign told us we would be the sixth richest nation on the planet.

We were to be better off to the tune of £800 for every one of us — providing we said yes to independen­ce.

At the same time, the pro-Union group Better Together claimed tough times would lie ahead if we were to vote yes.

They were accused of scaremonge­ring.

Now an SNP MP has made a public statement agreeing with Better Together’s assessment, admitting we should expect ‘painful’ times should we decide to go it alone.

I wonder if voters will heed this new warning should a second referendum ever happen.

Politics watcher.
