Great debater, clearly.

Answer his many, some would say valid, points with remarks more erudite than “shiny ****” and “melt”, whatever these mean.

There’s also a potentially valid argument to say that Scotland takes a lot more out that it puts in.

Which is why we need Kate in charge.

She’d ask the second question.

1/ what do we want?

2/ how do we pay for it?

Thought about your armed forces comment and still not getting it.

I do believe you could well be a hun troll.

There's an equally valid argument that says that those wanting Scotland to remain in the UK would say that.

Tell me, when unionists talk about all the dodgy accounting by the SNP over ferries and party funding, how exactly do they feel about ppe and Michelle Mone's companies or unelected peers as ministers?

She speaks quite well but I’m not sure if her history degree qualifies her on fiscal matters, to be frank.

That may well be right but I suspect the fact she is a fully qualified Chartered Accountant makes her more qualified than the majority of UK Chancellor of the Exchequers/Scottish Cabinet Secretary for Finance past and present.

I stand corrected. She has a naturally good figure but I’m not sure that she’s naturally good with figures.

That we take out more than we put in. This has been the case in recent years but the counter-argument is that this has been cancelled out by our earlier greater contributions.
