Summary
The SNP has claimed that Brexit's negative economic impact on Scotland will worsen if Nigel Farage gains political power in Downing Street. This statement follows research from the Scottish Parliament Information Centre (Spice) showing that UK GDP growth (5.5% since 2019) has significantly lagged behind EU nations (7.3% cumulative growth), with EU growth being roughly a third higher than the UK's over the same period.
