‘Slippery slope’ for SNP?

-

Madam, – Watching the news tonight, I heard the words of the Ms Sturgeon and Mr Blackford again.

Words like the ‘SNP will show the gold standard in democracy’...

How on earth can they speak these hollow words?

The SNP does not know what democracy is at all!

Democracy means accepting the results from the ‘once in a generation vote’ in 2014.

The choice was

No, and SNP rejects this result: how undemocrat­ic is this?

I hear words towards Labour and Lib Dem if you want our support you need to give us a second Indyref, otherwise don’t bother to call us!

That is, in my opinion, pure blackmail, and has nothing to do with politics any more!

This behaviour shows that the SNP is walking on a very dangerous path, a path with a very slippery slope.

It shows me, that the SNP only wants ‘the best’ for themselves, and not the best for the country they say to love.

If they would really love Scotland, they would pay attention to all the trouble people go through, the poor, the homeless, the elderly, the jobless and so forth.

If they would really love Scotland they would make sure that the provost from Glasgow pays back the £8,000 she used to spruce up her wardrobe!

The £8,000 could have helped a lot of people that really need help.

If the SNP really, really loves Scotland, they would respect the choice of the people made in 2014.

Only that would be the ‘gold standard of democracy’!

Mrs Maaike Cook. Cash Feus, Strathmigl­o.
