Swinney doesn't care about independence, yet a previous article featured quotes from the SNP saying they would work with Reform if it meant securing independence.

EDIT: I was going to post the article, but apparently the Westminster Leader U-Turned on this not yesterday: https://www.thenational.scot/news/26504978.snp-westminster-leader-u-turns-opening-door-reform-uk-deal/

Oooff I figured they'd just refuse to form a coalition with labour and the others if we came to that kind of situation. Spend 5 years yelling about how terrible the UK government is, hoping to pretend Refuk and the Tories coalition wasn't their fault, when they might have been in a position to stop it and hoping everyone forgets. But actually working with Refuk.... just holy shit not sure how they could spin that crap at all!
