LABOUR are in a “conspiracy of silence” with the Tories about the harmful impacts of Brexit on the UK, top SNP figures have said on the third anniversary of leaving the EU.
Stephen Flynn, the party’s leader at Westminster, said the matching support for Brexit from Keir Starmer and Rishi Sunak made clear there was “no route back to Europe” for Scotland as part of the UK.
And Angus Robertson, the Constitution Secretary, pointed to research suggesting Scotland had lost some £3.2 billion in tax revenues to Brexit – calculated as a fraction of the estimated £40bn lost by the UK as a whole.
