It's great isn't it.

The SNP asserts that currency union is in everyone's interests. The top mandarin in the Treasury says it isn't, so he therefore is wrong. The Chancellor says it isn't going to happen (as does his shadow, and his Lib Dem deputy), so therefore they are wrong. It's just a negotiating tactic, and anyway they're just bullies.

The SNP asserts that Scotland can join the EU, on its own terms, within 18 months of this September. Now the head of the European Commission says it will be difficult, and may be impossible, for Scotland to join the EU. So therefore he is wrong, and his views, coming as they do from the man that runs the machine and knows all the heads of government Scotland would have to negotiate with, are "preposterous".

John Swinney is preposterous. I can't believe the Scottish people are going to turn out in September and vote for what the SNP is selling. I wouldn't even buy a used car from them.
