Confidence vote in Brexit Britain

Sir, The news of the GlaxoSmithKline expansion investment of £275 million in Montrose and elsewhere in the UK surely makes the Nicola Sturgeon doommongering forecasts look rather silly.

EDF of France still proposes a £25 billion investment in UK nuclear energy and international banks are increasing their uptake of office space in London.

These are hardly the dire consequences being predicted from Bute House.

UK unemployment rates continue to fall and the pound is at a level that is a positive encouragement to investment, and provides competitive benefit to our exporters.

What’s not to like about that?

Interestingly, the GSK rationale for its expansion decision is reportSir, edly UK skills levels and attractive tax rates.

That translates into Government behaviour in the realms of education and sensible fiscal policy, things that the SNP has proved to be not particularly interested in, so fixated are members on separatist ambitions.

How refreshing it would be to see a change of direction from the SNP and a resolution to work more constructively in the overall governance of the UK, with a smidgen of decorum and gravitas in place of the juvenile antics recently witnessed and the seriously flawed economic forecasting. irresponsible open-door policy, is catching up.

Unlike the AngloAmericans, these nations have competing regional and/or federal police and intelligence services as well as legislation preventing eavesdropping on proto-terrorists in a manner that has kept us relatively safe.

Human rights legislation has become a menace. We need to find out who has arrived here, initiate a mandatory immigrant resettlement programme and those who make no effort to integrate sent back to where they came from. and welfare state, repeatedly fail to win much support here.

He must be very sad that the SNP policies of free personal care, free prescriptions and free tuition fees are so popular.

Indeed, they are so popular that Nicola Sturgeon gets in with 50% of the vote here, a proportion that has not been achieved by a Tory UK leader, ever.

Our Scottish Government has a clear duty to fight for Scotland.

The views of Scotland are almost on a two-toone basis that we should remain in the EU.

The fact that our views are repeatedly trampled on by the Westminster Government is a major concern.
