A monster of the SNP's own creation waits to make Swinney's life hell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You might not have thought John Swinney, of all people, needed to be reminded he’s in the business of breaking up the United Kingdom. The First Minister has waxed tedious for years on the subject, talking of how he became persuaded of the case for Scottish independence as a child and simply never changed his mind. For more than 50 years, he has spoken of little else. To the naked eye, Mr Swinney is the very definition of the fanatical Scottish nationalist, relentlessly scheming to cause grievanc
Debate wasn't about independence, it was about Swinney's own party... (opens the original)

At what point, I wonder, does John Swinney begin to realise just how ridiculous he’s become. A proud Scottish Nationalist for more than half a century, the First Minister has spent his adult life dreaming of breaking up the United Kingdom. And, during the best part of two decades in government at Holyrood, he has gone further, promising supporters that independence day is tantalisingly close.

Few people have thinner skins than politicians. Theirs may be a rough – even brutal – business but parliamentarians really can be a fragile lot.

After pledging to support the investment bank with £2billion of taxpayers’ cash over the coming decade, Ms Sturgeon said it would help tackle some of the biggest challenges facing the country. The SNIB, she added, had the potential to ‘transform, grow and decarbonise Scotland’s economy’. Last month, it emerg
Swinney's world view is too wee, his political vision too poor... (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of John Swinney’s greatest gifts to the independence movement was establishing the myth that Unionists think Scotland is ‘too wee, too poor, and too stupid’ to go it alone. The First Minister created this straw man in a speech more than a quarter of a century ago and since then it has been invoked relentlessly by Nationalist politicians bent on generating grievance and disharmony. The truth, of course, is that no Unionist politician has ever denigrated Scotland in the way their Nationalist o
