few do. Heâs even the chairman of âThese Islandsâ which seeks to inform people about Scotlandâs economy
Now we know how good he is, how come the polling for Independence is higher than ever?
Itâs pretty simple. Good as his message is itâs far too complex. Far too difficult

to read and absorb. Even for journalists! The success of the SNP is primarily down to brilliant propaganda , the othering of the Tories and England and a set of simple messages endlessly repeated
Theyâve even managed to convince most Scots that Scotland pays money to England

Despite this, Kevin plugs on regardless using the same message. A message that has failed to work before and fails to work now
If you want to get the message to the people you first of all need to get the message to the politicians and the media. Most politicians and journos

arenât that numerate. Even if theyâre bright. To study and learn the accounts takes time, effort and hard work. And ability. Few of them can or will put in the time
in order to get the message across it needs to be simple. Where possible it must be one page pieces

Make it crystal clear and simple. I met Blair Jenkins, who ran the Yes campaign. He firmly told me that Scotland would be forgiven itâs scare of the National debt due to Scottish oil revenues. He was totally unaware that Scotland spent all of our oil revenues on ourselves!

This is the sort of ignorance that we need to combat. So. Any of you out there who know Kevin, ask him to make it simpler. If itâs longer than a single page, make it simpler. Release his datasets so others can read them

If he and others donât then the country could split away. Due to ignorance and brilliant SNP propaganda
Iâve been doing datasets for around 5 years now. I try to make it as simple as possible but the people who need to listen just arenât listening
The SNP even have the FAI

in their pockets. They utter refuse to release data about fiscal transfers or even oil revenues or even our share of the national debt or the debt weâve run up
They now donât print anything that offends the SNP
This is a fight to the finish now. Trying to play with

Marquis of Queenberry rules just wont cut it anymore
Am I worried about independence?
Nope. I could never live under a Nationalist regime. Iâd simply move to England but most people canât do that so theyâd be stuck with the consequences

simpler by the people who know their stuff we will lose. Journalists are lazy. Theyâre not going to do the research needed to combat the SNP
Itâs an easier life if they just accept what the SNP says as truth
