Scotland's First Minister John Swinney has said the time for the country's independence from the United Kingdom is getting closer. According to him, decentralization of power from London is no longer enough and Scotland needs full powers to decide its own economic and political future.

Swinney, leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP), made the statement during a meeting in Cardiff, where Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland appeared together in demanding more autonomy and rights from the British government.

One of Sweeney's main arguments is related to Brexit. He recalled that in the 2016 referendum, 62% of voters in Scotland voted against leaving the European Union, while at the level of the whole United Kingdom the result was in favor of Brexit. According to him, Scotland left the European Union "against its will."

The Scottish First Minister argued that Brexit has had an economic impact on the country, citing a decline in economic activity, inflation and rising living costs. He said many Scottish companies have been forced to change their activities or give up trading with European markets because of new barriers after Brexit.

Sweeney also called for closer ties with the European Union. According to him, Scotland needs closer relations with European countries and international partners. He particularly stressed the importance of the movement of European students, researchers and professionals, arguing that this would help Scotland's economic and academic development.

Another issue he sees as important is immigration. Swinney said Scotland needs more immigrants because of its demographic structure and job market needs. He said a more flexible immigration policy would benefit the Scottish economy, which is suffering from an ageing population.

Speaking about relations with London, Sweeney acknowledged that there is room for greater devolution of power. However, he argued that this would not be enough. According to him, Scotland needs more flexibility, especially in the fiscal area, so that it can design economic policies tailored to its needs.

“Devolution is not enough,” was essentially his message. Suinney believes that full powers of an independent state would give Scotland the ability to make independent decisions on the economy, immigration and relations with the European Union.

He also spoke about the possibility of a new referendum on independence. In the 2014 referendum, Scots voted against secession from the United Kingdom, with about 55% of the vote. However, according to Sweeney, the situation has changed significantly since then, especially after Brexit.
