• scottish government doesn't have the powers to borrow the billions required to fund a publicly owned venture like the article suggests, though. The SNP had plans to set up a publicly owned retail energy company in the past, but even if they'd done that, such a retail company would have nothing to do with energy generation/infrastructure.

    Or were you actually posting this because you're in favour in scottish independence and this is a great example of how a lack of powers has hamstrung scottish economic development?

  • I was just getting in before ol' Hurricane tbh. I cant even read the article, not subscribed.

    I like your response though.

    There are very very few things that would prevent me from voting for an independent Scotland. Saor Alba.
