Brian Cox Criticizes Trump Comments on Scottish Independence
During his visit to Scotland, US President Donald Trump commented on the prospect of a second Scottish independence referendum, suggesting there should be a 50 to 75-year gap between votes, arguing that a country "can't go through that too much." These remarks were strongly criticized by Scottish actor Brian Cox, a vocal supporter of independence, who called Trump's comments "bollocks" and "rubbish," urging that Scotland should move forward with independence. Cox also highlighted the damage caused to the independence movement by the ongoing police investigation into SNP finances, mentioning the harm done to the party and wider cause. Trump expressed his admiration for Scotland’s current First Minister but joked he might be eligible to run for the position himself. The debate reflects ongoing tensions around Scottish independence politics, with Cox continuing his vocal opposition to what he views as undermining from external voices like Trump. The US president’s remarks and Cox’s response have reignited discussions around the timing and legitimacy of a second referendum.
