DAILY MAIL COMMENT: A very good day for our united kingdom

No substance however galore contortions helium performed during his unedifying bid to cling connected to power, Humza Yousaf's resignation arsenic Scotland's First Minister was inevitable.

A proponent of the SNP's disfigured maneuver of demonising governmental opponents, his belated effort to physique bridges astatine Holyrood to debar losing a ballot of nary assurance unsurprisingly failed.

Rather than endure defeat, Mr Yousaf discontinue with a characteristically charmless speech. But 1 happening helium said couldn't beryllium faulted. This was the 'right decision' for Scotland. It is for the United Kingdom, too.

Not lone does it awesome the opening of the extremity for the SNP's 17 years of misrule, it besides dashes immoderate hopes of Scottish separatism for a generation.

If the Nationalists can't adjacent tally a devolved authorities competently, however could they beryllium trusted with an autarkic country?

This time, the SNP cannot laic the blasted for their troubles connected the evil Tories oregon Westminster establishment. The ghastly soap opera is wholly of their ain making.

Ordinary Scots privation fairer taxes, a decent acquisition for their children and a functioning NHS to look aft their health.

But nether the woke authoritarianism of the SNP and their ex-coalition partners, the Scottish Greens, they got divisive trans policies, unattainable and unaffordable clime alteration goals and absurd hatred laws. They merit little clueless leadership.

With the SNP unravelling, Labour has much accidental of winning seats successful Scotland successful the wide election. That would marque Sir Keir Starmer's way to No10 easier.

This is troubling due to the fact that helium is much apt to manus caller powers to Scotland – worsening the disastrous experimentation with devolution.

And erstwhile it comes to the lunacies of wokery, you could hardly acceptable a cigaret insubstantial betwixt the views of Starmer and the SNP.

Migrant mayhem

What a jolly jape it seemed astatine the time.

In a bid to sabotage Brexit, Dublin and the EU remorselessly insisted connected an unfastened borderline connected the land of Ireland.

Then, past month, they chortled arsenic the Irish High Court ruled the UK was not a harmless spot to region migrants to due to the fact that they could beryllium sent to Rwanda.

Today, the smirk has dropped disconnected the look of those smug governmental elites.

Illegal Channel migrants are flowing into the Republic crossed the unguarded borderline with Northern Ireland successful immense numbers to debar being fixed a one-way summons to Africa.

With delicious irony, Ireland is present shrieking that Britain instrumentality them back. So we are a harmless state aft all!

Rishi Sunak is close to refuse. The PM should lone hold if France lets america instrumentality each migrant who arrives successful a tiny boat.

By doing so, French president Emmanuel Macron could extremity this lethal commercialized successful a heartbeat. In the meantime, Ireland finds itself good and genuinely hoist by its ain petard.

The benefits of work

The quality that the numbers claiming benefits for anxiousness and mild slump has doubled successful 5 years is profoundly troubling.

Yes, immoderate volition endure superior intelligence wellness issues. But determination is an evident information we are medicalising the inevitable misfortunes and disappointments beingness throws astatine us.

So ministers are close to see overhauling disablement allowances, with immoderate radical being offered attraction and therapy alternatively of currency handouts.

The purpose is to promote them backmost to work. After all, a fulfilling occupation whitethorn beryllium precisely the medicine they need.
