Kenny MacAskill: The UK’s Brexit chaos is Scotland’s opportunity, but just not yet

WATCHING the Cabinet after the Chequers summit declare that a deal had been agreed and a policy now existed, reminded me of Hans Christian Andersen’s fairly tale the “Emperor’s New Clothes”. For those who either haven’t read it or have long since forgotten it, a vain Emperor paraded stark naked as none of his ministers or officials would declare that his new suit, provided by swindlers, wasn’t lavish and perfect in every way. Eventually, a young girl blurted out that he was wearing nothing and everyone agreed, but he processed on regardless. . http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/16355216.kenny-macaskill-the-uks-brexit-chaos-is-scotlands-opportunity-but-just-not-yet/
