The single biggest argument for Scottish Independence - and it all actually boils down to this single issue - we have diverged politically from the rest of the UK and we are outnumbered 12 to 1, so the ONLY WAY we'll ever get what we vote for is with independence.

Labour have no mandate to bypass the devolution settlement. The people of Scotland voted for Devo, Westminster cannot be allowed to simply dismiss democracy in Scotland.
What will it take for the Scottish electorate to wake up and defend what's ours?
74% of Scots voted for a devolved parliament to take control of Scottish affairs. By bypassing Holyrood, Labour are again denying Scottish democracy. We may as well not vote here because clearly, like brexit, what Scotland wants does not count.

There's a reason for this. The ruling classes set the tax system so that they can exploit it to pay less taxes. Ordinary folk can't avoid PAYE or VAT...
