This bringing back of control is what I support as a Tory Brexiter. Is it possible that once the national question is solved in Scotland, that we could return to normal politics? At the moment every issue in Scottish politics is mediated through the national question to the advantage of the SNP. If national independence was no longer an issue we could see a return to a contest between left and right; between big state/ small state; between liberalism and conservatism. Much like we are seeing now we have reclaimed independence from the EU in England.
I write this tentaively and purely as a discussion, but is it time that we developed a conservative position that acknowledged the desire of people to live as a "we" and control their own nation and yet join together as federal nations within the Kingdom?
To repeat, if this post appears with some slight differences I apologise.

The mistake many of us in Britain make is to assume that the EU is still some kind of Common Market and that all both sides wish to do is organise trade for the best of all. But this is not so and we lose sight of what is important to the German and French political classes - the politics and ideology - if we continue to think only of trade.
