Proceeding contribution from Ian Blackford (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 November 2015. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.


Scotland Bill

I always agree with my right hon. Friend the Member for Gordon (Alex Salmond); the point is that it is the Scottish people who are ahead of this Parliament. We have to reflect on what is happening in this Bill. We were promised devo-max—as close to federalism as we could get; home rule in the spirit of Keir Hardie. It is this House and those on the Government Benches who are letting down the people of Scotland, and the people of Scotland will reflect upon that.
