Proceeding contribution from John Mason (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 March 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Unemployment.
Unemployment
In the first place, the amount has not yet been worked out and we do not yet know whether the UK will survive this crisis. Secondly, it is possible that if we had been independent, neither HBOS nor the Royal Bank of Scotland would have been in such shape, and that they would not have been as large or as much trouble as they currently are.
