British economic decline makes the case for a ‘European future’, argues SNP MP

At business and trade department questions today, SNP MP Richard Thomson clashed with minister for international trade Nigel Huddleston.

Mr Thomson said: “Isn’t it truly time for voters in Scotland to be given the choice between continued British economic decline or a prosperous, independent European future?”.

The minister replied: “I think it would be a good thing for all of us in this place to talk the British economy up”.
