IT’S BEEN an interested few weeks in the insanity that passes for politics in the Benighted Kingdom. Nicola Sturgeon stole Theresa May’s Brexit thunder by announcing that the Scottish government is going to press ahead with a bill enabling an independence referendum, and a couple of days later an enraged Theresa May responded by announcing that she’s not disposed to discuss granting a Section 30 Order. Get back into your shortbread tin, Scotland, was the very clear message from Westminster.
Now is not the time.
