Scotland’s Brexit Secretary Michael Russell has claimed Holyrood stands to lose more than 100 parliamentary powers if the repeal bill is passed

SNP scare tactics. The Scottish Office has already said these powers would be immediately returned with additional powers. – Alan The trouble is, the UK Government seems to be incapable of thinking of more than one thing at a time . . . or maybe it’s simply an almighty power grab! – Thom Muir So they have no power over them now as they are controlled by Brussels and their complaint is that after Brexit they will have no power over them still. Aye, it’s a real quandary. I never had a million pounds before and I have not got a million pounds now. – Iknowyouknow So effectively no change then as Europe presently holds these powers and the Scottish Parliament doesn’t. – Shengusmckhan The Westminster government should not withdraw 100 areas but 100% from this deceitful bunch of charlatans that are the SNP! – Archie Bunker
