Brexit Day: Famous Scots share their thoughts with The National
  • 4 năm trước
Angela Constance, SNP MSP
Scotland is an ancient European nation that voted decisively to remain within the European community to work with other forward-looking nations on the challenges we face. While today is a sad day for democracy, now more than ever we need to increase our resolve to decide our own future. The campaign for independence has turned a new corner.
Deidre Brock, SNP MP
Brexit will damage Scotland. It’s a stupidity we will all regret for many years to come – however we voted in that referendum. I’m heartbroken by the loss we’ll suffer and I’m devastated that people who have come from other European nations to settle in Scotland, to build lives, families and businesses here, might feel less welcome.
Scotland’s on a journey to self-determination but we are and will remain a European nation, outward-looking and inclusive. Our European allies should know that Scotland hasn’t gone away, we’ve just popped out for a while.
A sad and bad day for all the countries of the UK. We at least have a choice. This is Scotland’s time.
