Completely agree on all points, facts are all that are needed to combat and win arguments. Name calling and exaggeration just lowers the tone to Nationalists levels.
BREXIT was a mistake, but a democratic one, and 1m Scots including a third of SNP members (including senior politicians) voted for it. Ironically they are true Nationalists. The rest are hypocritical political opportunists crying crocodile tears.
I believe the tide is turning against the SNP as their appalling record in Government can no longer be ignored and hidden by PR spin.
No3 …Sturgeon’s failures … I laughed a bit at this because I know I’ve indulged my frustrations on Twitter by saying some of the things you’ve described about her. I shall endeavour to bite my tongue in future- it won’t be easy.
In today's Herald is an article "What's so bad about Devo Max? Let's put it on an Indyref2 ballot" By Neil Mackay

"British nationalists and Scottish nationalists..."
