The Positive Case - Softcover

Reseña del editor

Where is the positive case for Scotland remaining in the United Kingdom, can unionists not come up with one? So goes the constant gripe from nationalists accusing the No campaign of negativity, scaremongering and "project fear". But the claim is no more than a bluff designed to seduce undecided voters by suggesting better times ahead through breaking up the most successful political union ever known. This book offers an alternative view. As Scotland is already in the UK it is only right that questions should be asked about what would happen and what it will cost if we leave - in The Positive Case ThinkScotland.org provides not just one positive argument but thirteen authors giving their own positive reasons why Scotland is better off remaining in the UK. Scotland s influence abroad, being able to afford the best public services and welfare at home, our shared culture and values, maximising our economic opportunities, and recognising the solidarity that comes from our common heritage and more are all covered in this follow-up to How to Bluff Your Way to Independence. If you have not yet made your mind up or intend to vote No this book is for you. If you are voting Yes take some brave pills first.
