Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

The Nats really don't give a crap about Scotland or its people. They are just obsessed with breaking up the UK and getting independence no matter the cost. Using Brexit as an excuse to get what they want is diabolical.

The vote was to remain and was promised any many occasions to be a once in a lifetime vote. Whatever the people decided, they would accept it and be done with it. But for the last 2 years they haven't shut up about it.

The sooner the zombie population realise the SNP are a disease and a hindrance to Scotland and its economy the better.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

If only it was that simple Stephen i think a pretty decent sized bunch of scots will fall for all the rubbish and pie in the sky dreams and vote for it. Much as i don't want the union to break apart i also don't want to be going through this on a regular basis and that's what we're all in for.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

May isn't CMD, hopefully this time there will be less appeasement, plus everyone is tired of elections/referendums/politicky bs in general.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

All the things that the Bremainers were going on about with Brexit are even more so, if Scotland left the UK. How much of what goes or out of Scotland doesn't go through England? They are not exactly that near mainland Europe.

No way should she have it ASAP, We have had enough of her making rules to suit herself, Let her stew till after Brexit, We had enough of a division in Zscotland in 2014". Families falling out etc, She is now going to privitise our bus service and that could mean our pensioner tickets taken away, She cannot be trusted,

I agree Stephen, I will sign every petition there is going about to try and stop her, and hope everyone else does too

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

Has anyone given a thought to the currency? At present the Scottish pound is guaranteed by the Bank of England. Does Nic the fish expect that to continue if she gets her way and Scotland leaves the Union?

Dream on girl!

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

That was a major point last time about currency. The Nats have no actual clue about how it would work. Just focussed on getting independence no matter what.

I hope the Government tell them to bolt as it was promised to be a one time deal, and that if we choose to stay then they would accept it and not bring it up again.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

So will our first trade deal with Trump be a wall built between the UK and Scotland lol

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

Dont we already have one, its just in need of a few repairs :erm:

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

Why would someone want out of a club with only three other members to attempt to join another of soon to be 27 members some of which don't even want you in it. Makes no sense to me unless you charge it full of anti English rheteric and bs, if people are daft enough to fall for it then they get all they deserve and if they do I'll be moving my magic bean business north of the soon to be rebuilt wall

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

I just think the whole thing is a smack in the face for so many scots who took the snp at their word that it would be a one off vote families were divided, friends fell out with each other and just general division and now before those divisions have healed the snp want to kick it all off again. This will be another very nasty affair and who knows what economic fairy tales the snp will try to sell this time though it's a safe bet oil won't feature as prominently as last time. I like most scots I've met but as a Brit I'm tired of the snp foot stamping like little children in pursuit of an agenda only they care about. The timing is just ridiculous i can easily believe that there are others behind the scenes applying pressure and sturgeon for all the talk is not a strong enough leader to do whats right.
