Shall we add this - Nigel Farage bid to scrap human rights law could 'accelerate end of the Union' - to the already lengthy list of things that were supposedly going to accelerate the end of the Union?

| Trying to figure out WTF is going on
Shall we add this - Nigel Farage bid to scrap human rights law could 'accelerate end of the Union' - to the already lengthy list of things that were supposedly going to accelerate the end of the Union? None of them did, of course. But this impeccable record of failure will not be enough to stop people believing it will be different this time - just as it was going to be different all those other times.
That's the problem with such faith positions. Faith is belief against evidence. The stronger the contrary evidence, the stronger the faith. Faith positions are strengthened by the very evidence that proves them fallacious. The fact that Brexit, Boris, and the rest did not have the accelerating effect predicted is if not proof, a very powerful reason for being sceptical about the accelerating effect of Farage and his mad agenda. Believing that the Farage-effect is real is a faith position. Those who hold this position take pride in their ability to maintain their faith even in the face of the most incontrovertible evidence.
Quite simply, it is not safe to assume that Farage becoming British Prime Minister will have any positive implications for the fight to restore Scotland's independence. Maintaining that it is a safe assumption only encourages complacency. It promotes the fallacy that independence is inevitable. It emphatically is not!
Scotland's independence will not be restored by any external agency or development. It will not be restored by the EU or the UN. It certainly will not be restored by anything the British state imposes on Scotland. The only safe assumption on the basis of evidence is that the people of Scotland have an infinite capacity for tolerating the iniquities that flow from the Union.
Scotland's independence will only be restored by a process WE identify and implement here in Scotland. If WE don't do it, it doesn't get done. Stop thinking of independence as something that will be 'delivered' like an Amazon package or 'won' like a prize in a beauty contest. Think of it as something WE must go out and TAKE!
If we want our nation back, WE will have to wrest it forcefully from the jealous grasp of covetous Britannia.
Take back our government!
Take back our parliament!
Take back our nation!
