Let them have their referendum, the situation has changed since the last time and they deserve the chance to decide if they want to stick with us or with the EU.

Scotland is a smaller, uh, "nation", and it has its own things like free university and giving votes to 16, year olds.

And there's no need to be racist . It's "och", and also, the Scottish dialect is phonetically complete and so we enunciate the "th" sound and thus would never say "de noo". Were not Irish |

I oppose the entire UK benefits system, for a start, and UK wide (London-centric) economic policies have been utterly disastrous for Scotland over the last four decades. It's not about "wanting to change laws". Scotland and the bulk of England are socially an economically very different and English policies CONSISTENTLY fail to bother with implications north of the border. It has improved marginally with devolution and is still improving, until recently I would have accepted devo-max (full devolution of taxation and the social security budget) as an OK alternative to full indy... but Brexit isn't a minor consideration and Scotland will suffer badly from being locked into the isolationist hillbilly economy of the detached UK rather than the EU common market. There's no "apart from Brexit" any more. It is a major consideration.

I was listening to LBC earlier, a lady from the SNP said Scotland would raise taxes to make up for money lost if they left the UK ... why would anyone want that?

I am a strong admirer of Nicola Sturgeon.
I think she does a really good job as First Minister. As for another independence vote, I think if she has that passed in Holyrood. It's a disgrace the UK government could refuse it. We have this English votes for English laws in Parliament now. It would be shameful if the elected governing body of the Scottish devolved Parliament, was refused a new independence vote by English, Irish and Welsh MPs. England does dictate to the rest of the UK. With it's massively greater population as opposed to the 3 other, when it suits, so called 3 other equal Nations of the UK. If I lived in Scotland, I'd be with Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP all the way on this. Listening to the acidic comments I've witnessed from in the main the South of England against Scotland is frankly sickening. Scotland has been taken for granted, and been the testing dumping ground of dubious policies by the 2 main Parties of the UK for way too long and it should be the case now that enough is enough now, as to that. In my opinion. Last edited by joeysteele; 28-04-2019 at 11:08 AM. |

the financial aspects of independence won't enter into it. I can see an independence vote being successful purely from the mess that has been on display daily at westminster. I don't want to be ruled by that lot, not for a moment, and the feeling from the folks in Scotland will be magnified 10 fold

On a practical level how will the border be policed, NI style checkpoints, a Trump style wall If Scotland does achieve independence and then subsequently gets accepted back into the EU, free movement will pose a significant problem?
