It gets boring after a while, the continual harping on about the same basic mistakes of the SNP/Scottish government, and that is what seems now as the deliberate policy of non-preparation for a future referendum.
I attach a link to a blog I did a year ago which was just one in a litany of warnings, none of which have been heeded.

We are at a stage in the Brexit negotiation the lays bare the total inadequacy and incompetency of the British government (not that it wasn’t there before ) but Nicola Sturgeon continues with the policy of appeasement of the British establishment, I wrote another blog on the same subject named “A road map to unionism “ which I copy below ,on the same theme .

The whole point of these and many more blogs is to highlight the lack of preparation of the SNP for any future referendum by neglecting to put in place the basic building blocks for another go at independence.
Ok there is the Growth commission headed by Andrew Wilson which has been lost in the long grass so long that I believe they are sending Hendry Stanley to look for him. He has been tasked with, ( among other things ) deciding on a currency for a new Scotland.
Right I will tell you what that will be. It will be a Scottish pound and for the sake of clarity I will tell you what plan B will be. We will in fact have a choice of plan B’s, they will be (not necessarily in this order) The Euro, A Scottish pound linked to the euro, A Scottish pound linked to Sterling or even a Scottish pound linked to the Dollar. You might not realise it but it was only in 1992 that the British pound ( Sterling ) became a freely floating currency after many years of links to the Dollar ,the German Mark and the Euro exchange rate .
So the growth commission will adjudicate, and about three and a half years to late, come to the very same conclusion I came to around two o’clock in the morning on the 19th of September 2014 when I saw the results coming in and started planning for the next stage of the road to independence.
Honestly , the SNP under Nicola Sturgeon and her Husband , the chief executive of the SNP Peter Murrel have been abysmal in their preparations for a future referendum . They are the main impediment to independence and they both have to go, it is as simple as that.
If they are not replaced, we will end up with a dogs breakfast of Brexit with “an attachment to the single market and EEA which will leave the SNP with nowhere to go on the road to independence.
So Nicola, my message to you is ,either get your act together or get out, it is as simple as that
