What a waste of time and energy.

It will be blocked and sturgeon and her ridiculous party will use that block to play on the anti english idiots anger and rage at the english to spread more hate and division at a time the country needs to come together.

Parhetic and predictable.
.sit down and shut up sturgeon you are hapless at the day job and this is merely an effort to deflect that fact.

I wish Nicola Sturgeon the best of luck with this.
I hope when the referendum comes,after the Westminster govt. decide to stop dictating and allow one.

I hope the Scots this time vote for independence too.

I'll be happily settled in Ireland and it will be sad to watch the break up of the United Kingdom for sure but most of England's MPs dictating across the UK is no amicable or compromising way to govern any Nations.

The SNP lack a majority in Holyrood and needed the Greens to get this through. The Greens said there should only be a second referendum if 1 million people sign a petition for it and public demand was irresistible which is clearly not the case

Greg! 28-03-2017 07:19 PM

yeah and then Brexit happened

I can accept that Brexit does meet the SNP criteria of 'a material change of circumstances' for a second referendum (though I still find their actions cynical), however there has clearly not been a 1m petition or the irresistible demand for a referendum that the Greens set as their criteria

Greg! 28-03-2017 08:31 PM

It was made policy by their members recently I believe, so they're well within their rights to vote for it. Also even if they had abstained, the bill still would have passed without their support

MTVN 28-03-2017 08:31 PM

Lib Dems are the most pro-EU party out there and they voted against the referendum because they appreciate that a Remain vote in the EU referendum was not intended as a green light to the SNP to pursue independence again

Greg! 28-03-2017 08:32 PM

The Lib Dems are sellouts and hypocrites so I'm not really bothered about their opinion

MTVN 28-03-2017 08:41 PM

Point remains that its misleading for the SNP to equate supporting Remain in the referendum with supporting Scottish independence, obviously Scottish Labour and the Scottish Tories also wanted to stay in the EU. Whatever the case though I accept that the Scottish parliament has approved this and so a second referendum should take place, the timing is still a matter of debate though

Not Brexiters opposing democracy when it suits them when they've been spouting that not getting their way would be undemocratic for the past four years.

No Johnson has stated

was for a lifetime.
