From a civil servant under the Labour government which sold out Scotland.
Highlights include:
- Labour hid from Scotland the extent of the oil reserves
- They rushed to get the money and gave away most of the value
- Thatcher made the SE of England the richest area of Europe on oil wealth
- Oil saved the UK in the 2008 crash
- In 2014 the unionists’ claim was that oil revenues had crashed. They hadn’t – investment in new fields had gone through the roof.
- With Independence Scotland could be the 3rd richest nation in the world, with the UK back at 28th position.
