HappyG(rrr) Sep 2022 4:24pm, 26 Sep 2022 44,012 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) Proud to be in a part of the UK that is rejecting the tax cuts for the already very wealthy and high income earners. If only we were truly independent of these horrible, money grabbing, morally abhorrent leeches running the UK into the ground, while lining their own pockets and that of their big donor friends, at the expense of the poorest in society. Shame on them.

I was however thinking on my run home tonight on some what if scenarios. So let’s say Scotland were independent and truss/kwarteng pulled the current stunt, would Scotland be totally immune from the impact or would our close ties mean we felt some impact anyway. Also would the impact differ if we were at different stages of the snp strategy of (i) using the pound or a Scottish currency pegged to the pound (ii) a Scottish pound with our own central bank or (iii) in the euro.
