During Brexit 62 percent of Scots voted to stay in the
EU. But when the United Kingdom voted to leave the EU many
Scots felt their voice had been ignored. As a result, the Scottish National Party, or SNP, has vowed to
hold another referendum on Scottish Independence. UPSOT: “Scotland’s future must be in Scotland’s hands |

Daniel IV outside Castle |
Daniel (08:48): What Brexit has done is just shown the
political divide that exists between the two countries. England's a
conservative country and always kind of traditionally has been, Scotland's
always been more left leaning in the past, that used to be labour, now it's pretty heavy SNP. And it's just we're going in two completely
different directions, and Scottish people are just fed up of having a
government that they don't vote for. |

Evan:
(17:13:39) Nicola (17:13:46): Scotland is split down the middle on the
issue of independence right now. So although it is
an issue that divides Scotland, it divides them more evenly than it did
before. And we know what has driven people towards independence, modestly, at
least. We know what has closed that gap, and what has closed that gap is
Brexit. |
20.
|
|
Nicola (17:27:17): A phrase that you will hear a lot from
Scottish government ministers, from Nicola Sturgeon, is that Scotland has
been taken out of the EU against our will, and it's this idea that Scotland's
voice cannot be heard or accommodated within the United Kingdom, and Brexit
is the biggest manifestation of that. |

Hey big fella. |

SCT_EW_070721_FS7 @
18:20:44:01 onwards Boat heading out to sea |
He now owns the town’s biggest boat and he hunts for
prawns the traditional way – using “creels” - or small cages, what we might
call pots Bally 18:26:40 “So we’re fishing
in this bit of water called the inner sound, so it’s a channel of water
between the Isle of Skye and the mainland of Scotland about 5km wide and 20
km long most of our creels have been left there for the last few days / which
means there might be some tangles and hopefully there’ll be some prawns in
them” |
28. |
SCT_EW_070721_FS7_DLOH_4920 Bally in Wheelhouse Duncan chopping up
fish Preparing pots to be
thrown over board |
Bally (18:32:53): We've got a huge sea
area, huge fishing industry in Scotland, disproportionately bigger than
England. In fact, it's bigger than England even though we're only 10% of the
population of the UK. We've got 60% or something of the UK's fishing
industry, but we don't get invited to the fisheries negotiations. |
29. |
|
He says Britain’s current Conservative – or Tory –
Government fails to listen to these smaller Scottish fishermen or invite them
to assert their claim on annual national quotas |
30. |
SCT_EW_070721_FS7_DLOH_4920 |
Bally (18:33:27): These are the kinds
of things that drive people towards independence, the fishing industry in
Scotland, not myself, but much of the fishing
industry in Scotland is traditionally Tory voting. But when you see the
Tories behaving like they are towards the Scottish fishing industry, then you
know, they're just incentivizing previously Tory voters to vote for
independence and the SNP. |

Bally looking at prawn |
Bally (19:38:14): he's a good prawn, I
mean, that kind of thing is coming in at about 20 pounds a kilo to us. I have
no idea what they pay for them on the continent, but I would imagine it'd be
twice that. |
32. |
Cu prawns in box 070721_FS7 Shots of prawns 19:02:50:02 |

Standing on the deck
of the boat looking at prawns SCT_EW_070721_FS7_DLOH_4984 |
Bally (19:29:16): if this isn't alive he’s only worth, I don't know, 20 pence in the pound
in comparison. And we wouldn't get anything. Evan (19:29:23): Yeah. Bally (19:29:23): So, if this died on
the truck on the way we don't get paid for it. Evan (19:29:26): Really? Oh, you
don't get paid here? Bally (19:29:28): We don't get paid at
all. Evan (19:29:29): So, if it doesn't make
it you don't get paid? Bally (19:29:31): Well, our buyer won't
get paid. So if our buyer lands and his boat and
turn says, "Well, we have 10% dead," then we'll just get 10% taken
off, whatever we landed. Simple as that. And if the whole lorry load dies,
then nobody gets paid. |
34. |
|
When Great Britain was part of the EU, Bally’s prawns
were transferred seamlessly Brexit imposed paperwork, bureaucracy and delays. |
35. |
SCT_EW_070721_FS7_DLOH_4984 Evan Bally chatting whilst Bally pulls
prawns from net |
Bally (19:29:51): I mean, that's what
shut the fishing industry down so hard. I mean, they still wanted prawns in
Europe, and it was still theoretically possible to get them over the border.
But nobody was willing to sell them or to try and risk putting an Arctic
lorry load of these is quarter of a million pounds. And so
if you have an Arctic lorry load stuck in a queue for three days, just
because of some paperwork anomaly. Then not only does the buyer lose a
quarter of a million pounds. You know, that comes all the way back to us.
People start going out of business quick. |
36. |
SCT_EW_070721_FS7_DLOH_4984 Evan Bally chatting whilst Duncan pulls
prawns from net |
UPSOT: Yep, more
again Bally (19:35:37): Yeah. I mean,
there's areas of
the shellfish sector that literally just vanished. I mean, we are lucky. We
got three months of no sales, and now we have depressed markets on a poor
price. And that's going to stay until we eventually get back in Europe. Evan: (19:36:07) |

Evan (19:40:12): And how does this
play into the feeling this whole independence thing. Bally (19:40:15): I think if you're an
inshore fisherman and you voted for Brexit, you've kind of shot yourself in
the foot. And I think you may be resentful as well of the fact that the
Brexit that you were promised didn't materialize. And so
I would argue that we've very, very few inshore fishermen who are now
thinking about whether or not we should rejoin Europe. As far as I know,
there's only one proposal to achieve that and that is via Scottish
independence. *BREATH* |

the average salary on the

Allan: (23:42:03) I think business people
have a fear that there is a gradual politicization of the government agencies
that interface with the economy. Allan: (23:42:29) |

Allan believes the ability to voice an opinion without
fear is key to Scotland understanding the pros and cons of independence. Especially for business
owners like him, who rely so heavily on frictionless trade with the rest of
Britain. |

Since
the pandemic Scotland’s deficit has doubled. Last
year they spent 36 billion pounds more than they make in taxes, a gap
currently subsidised by the UK government. Business people like Allen ARE
worried an independent Scotland would have to raise taxes in order to pay the
deficit, And
he thinks if taxes go up the people who pay them will simply move south of
the border |

I’m here in Scotland, where talk of independence has
ramped up in the aftermath of Brexit. Upsot: street
scene A recent report has
found that the cost of independence could be two
to three times greater than the impact from Brexit. |

But Professor of territorial politics, Nicola McEwan is
more optimistic Nicola (17:31:52): There's no doubt that there would be an economic
impact of independence in the short to medium term, there is widely
acknowledged to be a fiscal deficit. In other words, Scotland spends more
than it raises in revenues, Nicola:
(17:41:12)
But the interesting thing about this time
and this context is that, unlike in 2014, where the risk was all on the
independence side, there are now seen to be risks with opposing independence.
The UK is no longer necessarily the risk free
option, and that's because of Brexit. |

Despite the growing support for another referendum, The
SNP has a legal hurdle Under the rules of the Union both governments have to agree to another vote and Westminster has so far
said it will refuse |

Nicola (18:02:06): I
think on the international stage, if the UK was to lose Scotland, then I
think it would further diminish its status in the world, and I think that's
one of the reasons why they are some determined for that not to happen. |

Many in Scotland are now hoping a large new
oil and gas field of the Shetland Islands will fund independence. But the SNP can only rule - and call a new
referendum - because it formed a coalition with the Greens giving them a one
seat majority (FACT CHECK) UPSOT; 0:30; the
Scottish Government has reached a proposed Co-operation Agreement with the
Scottish Greens 3:30; Upsot; We also reaffirm in this
Agreement our shared commitment to securing independence for Scotland But will the Greens agree to opening an oil
field that will generate carbon emissions equivalent to 16 coal fired power
plants a year. (ref guardian) Evan comment |

UPSOT: Splash + boat driving along VO:
While I’ve found it's not so much the idea of independence in itself It's
more a sense that Scotland is moving in a different direction and Brexit
reinforced for many the idea that Scotland’s voice is constantly ignored in
London: Paying
for it will be a challenge, legally it might never happen
but Brexit has brought the possibility of independence closer than ever |
