Two polls (admittedly both from the same company) putting support for independence at 54% is a significant moment https://www.independent.co.uk/independentpremium/editors-letters/scotland-independence-brexit-nicola-sturgeon-polls-snp-a9613801.html
Four questions for the SNP: 1. How will you pay for Scotland’s increased deficit? In the short term there will be a hole in Scotland’s public finances that is currently filled by the UK’s rules for sharing tax revenue
2. Are you happy to have a currency controlled by a foreign country? You could have the euro, in which Scotland would have as much say as Slovakia, or you could have your own currency, but no, you propose to use the currency of the big colonial oppressor
3. On what terms would you join the EU? You would have to sign up for the euro and the fish
