A Deal, Any Deal vs No Deal
I don't understand how the SNP can vote for No Deal when they've spent four years calling for one. And making increasingly alarming forecasts of what would happen if Britain "crashed out" without a trade deal. They even went to the Supreme Court to prevent a No Deal Brexit. https://t.co/lJmhhqN7fq

Herald columnist Iain Macwhirter triggered a lot of angry responses after poking fun at the SNP's 'No Deal' stance on Twitter.
The obvious solution was, of course, for the SNP to abstain in the vote, or not show up at Westminster at all.
But then again this is all about showboating and making a lot of noise rather than serious politics.
A Deal, Any Deal vs No Deal (29/12/20)
Politics can be a confusing business sometimes - only days ago Nicola Sturgeon was insisting that a deal, any deal was better than a 'No Deal' Brexit.
Yet SNP MPs at Westminster will be voting against the trade deal agreed with the European Union even though this is the only deal that is now on the table.
The only alternative at this late stage is No Deal which would be the worst possible outcome, as Nicola Sturgeon said herself recently.
