Guest Bob Mahelp Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Just now, Snifter Pee Rot said: The 15% UK debt is exacerbated by the cost of covid and bailing out Sturgeon's calamitous SG every year, but they can raise the money on capital markets via debt instruments that are not crippling as the UK is a reliable payer. iScotland would have to borrow at a much higher interest rate and against a start up currency that would likely collapse quickly against sterling upon trading. You buffoons have no clue regards the extremely painful financial and economic correction an iScotland would visit on the Scottish people and it's most vulnerable members, you don't actually care truth be told. Sturgeon thinks she is the boss ordering new shutdowns but she isn't the one bearing the cost and if she ever had to find the money to pay the bills herself she'd run for her fat pension retirement home faster than you can say Scots Wha Hae. Deary me. The covid thread for this rabid, puce faced shite please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better to just worship at the feet of the blessed Boris, from whom all good things flow, and accept his utterances as fact. (But don't produce actual facts which appear to contradict him.

That's what governments, all governments, do, have done, and will continue to do. To quote from the UK Govt website. UK general government gross debt was £2,223.0 billion at the end of the financial year ending March 2021, equivalent to 103.6% of gross domestic product (GDP). UK general government deficit (or net borrowing) was £323.9 billion in the financial year ending March 2021, equivalent to 15.1% of GDP. Not all governments, some governments use their natural resources to their own benefit and have billions in the bank. It's a pity Scotland doesn't have whatever it is Norway has... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have extracted more than Norway. So where did all that revenue go? We should be sitting alongside them as the richest country in Europe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it any surprise that those at the top turn out to be the biggest liars? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 12 hours ago, Snifter Pee Rot said: Through horrendous mismanagement she's run up a deficit that's 22% of gdp which is beyond insolvent. If she had to live off her own coin and deal with the instant depression that any separation and hard border plus new currency would cause the whole Scottish economy and public sector would collapse overnight. She is a con artist and charlatan unless you have a head stuffed with lucky white heather and mouldy haggis. The flag shaggers don't care because her cult doesn't deal in facts or reality. Has zero impact on them. Half of the additional 20-21 spending was by the UK government. There is nothing about a large deficit that implies insolvency. I don't think you know what that word means. 22% would be unsustainable in the long term, but it's not a long term position. A hard border with England probably would negatively impact growth (compared to the counterfactual) but without knowing any of the practicalities it's a stretch to suggest an instant depression would result. There is no reason a new currency would cause a depression. That's just gibberish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
