Has anyone asked her this vital question?
If they get their 2nd independence vote and 1 or more constituencies vote no while the majority vote yes,would the no constituencies be dragged out of the union against their will?Or would they be allowed to stay?Maybe some constituencies are more equal in Scotland than some others?

I posed it to a few snp mates on fb but nobody seems to have answered me.

Because...unless you are part of a group that is genuinely discriminated against, persecuted and repressed, Nationalism is a load of emotive identity bullshit that won't solve anyone's real life problems.

It was utter utter carnage. How he could not have been better prepared for the anti-semitism questions and the Waspi pension funding, god only knows - everyone knew they were obviously going to be asked except clearly jezwecan. It was delicious, tragic, depressing in equal measure.

Massive own goal the Waspi stuff

If Labour cared so much about it then it surely it should have been in the manifesto

Thought he did ok overall though

Thought Corbyn did alright really. Didn't turn anything around granted but I'd say we're pretty much where we were before the interview.

This was always going to be Johnson's election to lose.

He will be just as pressing and that's what makes him the best political interviewer. Johnsons people would have looked at that and really prepared him for an onslaught.

Massively disagree. Sure, he's the same for all but he's a terrible interviewer. An interview involves asking questions and getting answers. I've never heard him get an answer that told me anything useful.

Neill never was an interviewer as a journalist, he was an editor. On TV he editorialises at a politician while they're in the room.

I don't like Corbyn and I think the Rabbi has a point, but I didn't learn anything I hadn't got from reading the papers.

That he tears everyone up the same just contributes to the narrative they're all the same and there's no point in expecting anything from any of them, which is exactly the attitude that ends up with a crook in the White House and people saying "So what? they all lie and cheat just as bad." Johnson will prob do OK because no-one expects much from him anyway. Even the Corbyn stuff won't change many minds.

Neill is getting paid very nicely for a valuable media product, and IMO it's a cancer on politics.

He never even managed to ask about student debt and how Corbyn says it will be free from now on but those who have the debt already will be stuck with it.

Aside of the racism, it's scary how Labour policy is so ill thought through.

Corbyn genuinely didn't have a clue how to fund £58 billion on womens pensions. If by some miracle he got in, it would take less time than Callaghan's or Blair/Browns Labour government to bankrupt the country once more.

The Tories would get back in, then another 10 years of austerity to give the nations bank account some respectability, and then no doubt a new reinvented Labour party to come in and wreck the place all over again.

This cycle needs to stop. Give the Tories a chance to have a go at something other than austerity. If they screw up then kick them out.

I don't know if the young have noticed but whilst they're understandably peeved about their lesser chances of climbing the ladder than we had, it might be worth noting that all the over 60's with their houses, savings and pension funds, largely accumulated them from the kick start we got in the 1980's and that era was overseen by the erm... Tory party.

I believe that this ‘round’ of austerity was caused by the banks, not a labour government?

Yes, I believe that was the main cause of a worldwide recession which started in the USA with lending money to people who could not afford to repay it. However, I think the Labour administration at the time did not help the situation. It's always worth remembering that since WW2 the pound has been devalued twice, in 1949 and in 1967, both times under a Labour government. However, like Brian, I won't be voting as I don't feel it would be right to do so because I no longer live in the UK and pay no tax there.

“However, I think the Labour administration at the time did not help”

Yes they could have spent slightly less on health and education (their main expenditure) during the boom years which may have meant that the credit crunch crash would have been slightly less deep. Although that is arguable. Similarly, the coalition government of 2010/2011 did not help by cutting spending too hard and too fast.

It was, totally the banks, but don't lose sight of what went on before.

Labour were overspending from 2000 to 2007, fine if the golden goose kept laying its eggs, but once it stopped there was no way to meet spending commitments hence this prolonged period of austerity (too long to be fair).

So what caused this over reliance on the golden goose? Basically, Blair and Brown committed a gross act of negligence by handing the keys of the economy over to the banks in the late 1990's.

It was done on a quid pro quo basis, whereby the banks were asked to keep interest rates low (the key to getting re-elected, which they did) and in return the banks had free run to make profits pretty much however they liked. Profits make taxes etc, hence the plan to cover Labour's mental overspend.

So how do banks make money out of low interest rates? Simple, they lend more and at ever increasing amounts. Why lend £100 grand to buy a £120 grand house when you can lend £200 grand which, via supply and demand, forces the house price up to £220 grand.

And that is why, when the market saturated, they carried it on by lending subprime mortgages and the whole fckin roof fell in.

That is the salutary lesson about having a Labour government, they are economically illiterate and it bites everyone on the árse, even after they're long gone and forgotten.

Haven't the Tories borrowed around £850 billion in the last 9 years ?
