Toepoke Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Interesting debate on GMS earlier between Andrew Wilson (SNP) and Ian Murray (Lab). Andrew Wilson - Edinburgh will flourish as a European capital city to rival Vienna, Stockholm, Copenhagen etc. Increase in diplomatic and government jobs, saving in cost of London government offices. Ian Murray - New government jobs will be offset by 1000s of losses in financial services and academia due to funding cuts. Edinburgh would become too much of a focal point of power in Scotland. Given current opinion polls from Edinburgh it would appear the electorate side with Murray?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
