SS>SS ChatGPTNo, only for legislation that has cross-border implications |
Scottish Socialists answer is based on the following data:
Strongly agree
No, only for legislation that has cross-border implications
This position is a nuanced approach that the SSP might support, as it acknowledges the interconnectedness of the UK's nations while respecting the principle of devolution. The SSP recognizes the importance of legislation that has cross-border implications, which aligns with their broader socialist and internationalist principles.

Agree
No
The SSP would likely agree with the idea that MPs should not vote on legislation that does not affect their constituents directly. This aligns with the party's support for devolution and the idea that each nation within the UK should manage its own affairs on matters that solely concern it.

Agree
Reform the UK into a federal system
Reforming the UK into a federal system might be seen as a step towards acknowledging Scotland's right to self-governance, which the SSP supports. However, the party's ultimate goal is Scottish independence, not federalism within the UK. Therefore, while they might see some merit in federalism as a form of devolution, it does not align fully with their aspirations for Scotland.

Disagree
Yes, as long as the Barnett formula is used to determine budgets
While the SSP supports fair funding for Scotland and has critiqued the Barnett formula for not adequately reflecting Scotland's needs, their primary focus is on self-determination and devolution rather than adjusting the mechanisms of funding within the current constitutional arrangement. They would likely see this option as insufficient in addressing the broader issues of autonomy and governance.

Very strongly disagree
Yes
The Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) strongly supports devolution and the principle of self-determination for Scotland. They would likely oppose Welsh, Scottish, and Northern Irish MPs voting on legislation that only affects England, as it contradicts the principle of devolution and self-governance.

Very strongly disagree
Yes, and abolish devolution so all MPs can vote on all issues
Abolishing devolution goes directly against the core principles of the SSP, which has historically supported greater autonomy for Scotland, including the right to self-determination and independence. The party would strongly disagree with any move to centralize legislative power and remove devolved competencies.
