You could have knocked me over with a feather or a perhaps more appropriately a small thistle.

Which I believe demonstrates quite clearly that the Conservative Party does have something to offer Scotland.

An offramp.

To be fair he did go on to natter about “constitutional reform”, “devolution”, etc.

The Unionists “strong” economic arguments for the “Union”.

That is, no doubt in contrast to today?
