Very well-written article.
The most compelling line in here is: "two wrongs don't make a right".
To win the 20% who were No in '14, Remain in '16 & Yes now, there'd need to be a public admission that Brexit was bad, a path back to Europe's family, and Labour to champion Union. https://twitter.com/afneil/status/1333686640485814273

Given that attitude, why should they now be demanding that Scots should put financial responsibility over ‘principle’ where they were not?
