Scottish Independence

[Coatigan]

More people voted in Scotland in the indy-ref 84% than in the GE, this is where the SNP will probably lose their objective again. But let them have it what harm can it be, democracy would win either way.

You are david cameron and i claim my £5!

I laugh when I read the once in a generation pish.that was one man who said that. One fucking man. No single perswon decides what we do. The SNP stood on a manifesto of another Ref. The Tories had one objective, a vote for them would prevent Indy 2.

They lost 60% of their seats. The SNP won 81% of the seats, gaining 13 more than 2017. We deserve a vote. We voted for it. The SNP had a higher % of the vote than that lying fat bastard and more seats. Yet all I hear is his overwhelming mandate. Well if that lying Toffy nosed Bellend has a mandate, so do we.

It really is simple, when you get your THIRD referendum all you have to do is vote LEAVE, the fact you haven't managed it twice is telling its own tale really.

Indeed. Once a trade deal with the EU has been secured it would be a more accurate picture for Scottish citizens to know what kind of UK union they'd be remaining in.

If I were a Scottish citizen, told to vote in an independence referendum, only to learn a few months later that the UK had secured a trade deal with the EU, whilst the newly independent Scotland would have to negotiate all on it's own, i'd be pissed.

It just makes sense really sturgeon is being a dick because the timing is right for her and not the inhabitants of Scotland.

It's interesting to see so many EU/remain advocates now move into a pro Scottish independence stance.

Fastest way back into Europe maybe?

Not as fast as you'd think.

I'd wager the majority of posters I'm referring to are not living in Scotland so I'd say not.

UK negotiates future FTA and then Scotland can decide which way it wants to go.

Seems fair.

How fast do you think I think?

Why does negotiating a FTA take precedence over Scotland’s democratic right?

Don't know what he's on about I was always Remain and also believe in giving Scotland the chance to leave the UK if they want to. Just like most Brexiteers have been spouting anti Scottish bollocks.
The logic behind my position is that like most Scots I loathe the Conservative party and that party has foisted Brexit on us both North and South of the border.

Unfortunately it’s what most English folk voted for. I can see why just about, they didn’t exactly have a brilliant set of options. At least we have one reasonably competent bunch we can choose to vote for.
