now why westminster?the logic — a young man whose life is in scotland, who wants scotland to be independent, go into the scottish parliament. yeah. so at that time in 2019, the battle for brexit was here. that was the big issue in politics. so we wanted to come down and make sure that we could be that loud voice for scotland to try and stop brexit. so of course what happened in england kind of made that a bit of a moot issue because boris won so handsomely. because there's an irony at the moment, the consensus amongst people who follow these things, the political experts, is the snp are going to lose seats in the westminster election. now i'm not going to insult your intelligence by asking you because you've got to deny it but that's what they think, 0k? and at the very moment everybody�*s talking about the snp going backwards, stephen flynn comes along, having just become leader and says, i'm going to be the kingmaker after the next general election. so how much do you want to be nick clegg to keir starm
