Wings Over Scotland


Not scared yet?

Posted on May 25, 2014 by

Recently we’ve been documenting a bizarre attempt by the No camp to terrify Scots with the thought that in order to continue to pay for pensions and public services and whatnot, an independent Scotland would need, um, almost exactly the same amount of immigration it has now. (Particularly alert readers may even recall when we pointed out that the UK parties used to have the exact opposite viewpoint.)

And it seems our critiques have already hit home.

Because a column by Gillian Bowditch in today’s Sunday Times has evidently realised that the “25,000 a year” line wasn’t having the desired effect, and ramped it up a little.

50k

By 100%, to be precise.

So just to recap in case you’re having trouble keeping score: in 2008, we didn’t need any immigration at all. In August 2013, we didn’t have nearly enough. On Saturday we needed 24,000 a year. And now, one day later, even 50,000 won’t get the job done.

Does anyone want to take a stab at tomorrow’s figure?

    EP2014 ‘Die Welt’ exit poll projection:
    UKIP – 24 MEPs
    Labour – 22
    Con – 17
    Green – 6
    Lib Dem – 2
    SNP – 3
    PC – 1
    SF – 1

    seems odd to get a German Broadcaster to give a UK exit poll but then it is a European Broadcaster.

    Here’s a wee teaser – if you got everyone in the world together, spaced just far enough to hold hands and/or touch the shoulder of the person in front of them, how much space would they occupy?

    I don’t know the answer. Just wondering.

    A wonderfully eccentric writer called Hendrik Van Loon did a similar exercise in one of his books (maybe ‘The Home of Mankind’) where he postulated putting the entire human population into some bizarre space (I think it was an underwater crevasse or suchlike) and it turned out they wouldn’t take up much space at all.

    Sorry if that’s distasteful to you, but it is a fact. Nothing is ever as simple as it is made out. No one ever looks for the unintended consquences of an increase in population.

    Certainly it means more people paying tax, but these people will themselves grow old and become a ‘burden’ on society. We shall only be delaying the day of reckoning by a few more years. Our current population of 5 million is adequate if we apply ourselves properly.

    But it’s all relative. 100 years ago Scotland’s population was only around 4 million yet we were leading the world in shipbuilding and other forms of engineering. Our education system was second to none. We were enjoying the benefits of the Scottish Enlightenment.

    There are other countries in the world that have a smaller population than ours but are doing much better on the world stage. Independence is certainly the main step in the right direction, but doubling our population won’t solve anything in the long run.

    As much as I find UKIP to be pretty awful, there are three points to make:

    2. Don’t just assume that UKIP voters are all racist bastards. Some will genuinely believe that the EU is bad for Britain and/or Scotland. There are people who buy Farage’s story that SNP independence is not independence at all. Being Eurosceptical is not an intrinsically wrong position and it’s a mistake to assume it’s all just scumbags who aren’t real Scots or any such nonsense. If anything, a UKIP vote shows where we’ve failed in letting people see the flaws in UKIP’s approach.

    3. Fuck the BBC. Farage on the Edinburgh QT was the turning point for me. Galloeay at least provided a “Scotsman abroad” perspective and he’s good box office. Farage on there but Patrick Harvie frozen out of most BBC media, much less given a fair shake of Euro coverage, is just absurd and as Dimbleby’s comments that night showed, the BBC does not care about balance in Scotland. That wasn’t even a Yes/No balance. It was just a rejection of balance on Scottish politics, period.

    Peter Kelner, head of YouGov (and Labour Party member and husband of Catherine Ashton) said earlier on the BBC that Labour would win the most votes in Scotland. What happened to that? Does that mean that YouGov’s polls are very innacurate, or Labour/Unionist biased? Just saying

    Was just about to say the same thing, he predicted with some confidence that Labour would win claiming that it was some indication of what would happen in the referendum. WRONG! And by 3%, tells you all you need to know about him.

    Folks, let’s put things into a bit of calm perspective. As some other posters have already said:-

    1. The SNP have HELD their share of the vote (29%). That is fairly remarkable for a govt that’s been in power for 7 years.

    2. The SNP are once more first place, Labour second on 26%. Compared to 2009 (height of credit crunch, banks going tits up, expenses scandal, crash Gordon as PM), the Labour vote was only going to go one way – up. Their increased share is 5%. A sweeping endorsement of Ed in in one of his ‘heartlands’?

    3. We need to be bit wary about too many generalisations : overall Scottish turnout is about 33%.

    4. Although BBC & Sky are predicting one Scottish UKIP seat, the indications are the battle is very close. The Western Isles don’t count until Monday.

    5. We need 50% +1. The SNP and Green vote can largely be taken as Yes. These Euro elections are not a reflection on how the referendum will go. A Yes vote was always going to depend on voters from other parties, particularly Labour. Indications currently are that 25%+ of Labour voters are Yes. The campaign has to focus on them between now & Sept. Tonight is another illustration for Scot Labour voters, as if it were needed, that ED IS NOT GOING TO WIN IN 2015. Although London results still to fully come in, Labour & Tories are almost neck & neck. And UKIP are first – who are UKIP voters going to go for in 2015 if they feel strongly about a referendum & who is promising to deliver it? – the Tories. The message needs to be hammered again & again to Labour voters that the only chance of getting a govt they want is independence.

    Keep the faith.
    (By the way, Brian Taylor is a tit. Despite SNP coming first, holding their vote, all he wanted to talk about was how, if UKIP do win a seat, it would adversely impact upon AS & the prospects of a Yes vote).

    Look on the bright side. In the event of a Yes vote, UKIP will need to change their name. At least. I don’t think actual policies will help them any. 🙂

    Scottish Skier will be the one to ask about this, but:

    Am I right in thinking that YouGov was closest to the result in the Scottish Euro crossbreaks? Survation and ICM had the SNP on 4 seats a couple of times, and all other pollsters consistently had them a fair bit higher than 30%. From what I remember seeing in the weeks up to the vote, YouGov consistently had the SNP much lower (although with Labour and Tories higher).

    Might this be worrying for the referendum polling, if YouGov are shown as most accurate in this case, and they are one of the pollsters with the lowest YES ratings?

    We’re all disappointed by tonight’s result, but it seems some of us have taken it worse than others.

    No they didn’t geeo, they only had 2 seats but had a sniff of taking a third. The Green’s also had a sniff of taking one seat as opposed to the SNP’s third seat.

    There also appears to be a wee story that might be developing over the UKIP candidate. Apparently it appears that he may have put false information on his electoral registration form. I wonder if anyone will pick up on this. We could yet see some fireworks or fire balls blowing up UKIP HQ. 😉

    So then the subs will be gone frae Faslane before March 2010 then? That is the only way they can level Faslane, while they still own it. Once it becomes Scottish only territory they have to ask permission and it isn’t like the site isn’t able to be overviewed or anything, is it?

    Then there are all the nuclear weapons at Coulport and Machrahnish. I doubt they can build bunkers fast enough. So, we hold them hostage until they return Faslane intact.

    It would have been nice if Tasmina had won.She will get a seat at some level soon. However from a Yes perspective this is a good result.It spells out clearly that a no vote will take us out of Europe in 2017. If you listen to the dialogue this morning the main stream politicos do not get it. I am tired of them saying they are listening. They are not. There is no indication that they will change their behaviour. There is a difference between welcoming immigrants. I do, and wanting uncontrolled immigration. I do not. In my view I am not alone in that view. The politicians cannot see the difference nor see any way of dealing with this. Either they will or the silent majority will take it out of their hands. This is a warning shot.
