Or does he think f**k you and remove the Barnett formula and further punish the Scots for their uppityness? I think you have to give the jocks some credit, I reckon they have been clever. I don’t think there is a massive groundswell in Scotland to leave the union but they have elected MPs to represent them. I think in another referendum they would still vote to stay. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Where do they go once independent?? EU doesn't want them, can't support their own economy it's just fantasy. But if they keep pushing and pushing ....careful what you wish for... They are simply using leverage to get the most for Scotland, Cant blame them for that. As for independence, a little trip across the sea to a country with the same size population and vehemently pro EU will show them the empty shops, derelict towns, brand new industrial estates that have never had a tenant and economically suicidal swathes of regulation, red tape and generally long winded way of doing things should be enough to see where being a small country in the EU gets you. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the scotts have got any sense I think they should let boris do his stuff and see how the whole of the uk looks after a brexit then decide on weather or not they want to stay in the e.u. I wouldn’t be rushing for independence just yet as we could be onto a winner breaking from the eu. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have to look at Catalonia to see where that would get her, she has no legal right, she got around 1.2 million votes out of over 3mil. It looks good on paper but she is still a vile little cranky that is trying to ignore the results of a once in a lifetime referendum that she lost, plus she still has not told her fellow Scots that they have absolutely no chance of becoming members of the eu as they fail to meet many of the basic requirements, there oil is running out and English subsides and the Barnet formula are about all that is keeping them afloat, all she wants is mass immigration to replace the number of Scots that f**k off every year nothing more and when this is highlighted her support for independence will collapse in a similar way to corbyns return to socialism, i have not been a sleep in over 24hrs have just been and done a shift in work but I,m still buzzing my tits off and enjoying all the liars on telly trying to tell us we’re it went wrong, have not felt this good since I stayed up all night to watch the referendum 6 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If nothing else, thank f**k we have binned off proper socialism for another generation and fieldsports are safer this morning. Unfortunately, we might lose Northern Ireland as a result... I'd say, we might lose each other Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Personally I rather like the Scots, but that crazy little bint really is very annoying with her constant brave heart shit. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
