The sooner they get independence then the happier I will be, I just hope that the next time there is a referendum on Scottish independence then I hope that the rest of the UK will get to vote too as I am more than positive that they will then get their wish with a resounding majority........fucking whingers, I am sick to the back teeth of their high pitched voices telling us how hard done by they all are. /S:

When will there be an acceptance of the referendum vote if they vote to remain in the union., or will it just go on and on until they get the result they want?. They did say they would accept the result for a generation.
Corbyn in power would give them everything they want, what the Argentinians want with the Falklands, and what the republicans want in Scotland.
Always remember that t was the Labour party with devolution that set the whole sorry business in train..

I suppose, as I said in another thread on here recently, I never believed a word the Lying Scotsman said, least of all that this would indeed be the vote of a generation. Of course Sturgeon is going to go on and on dragging this up time after time until they get the result they want, they wouldn't be politicians otherwise, and they have the EU behaviour with Ireland's "error" over Lisbon to hold up as precedent.

Sturgeon: the Union is living 'on borrowed time'

Unquote.

There are factions within Scotland that are moving to break up the Union, and the SNP are moving towards that end. It does not even make any difference whether the UK remains in EU, as the end game remains the same, the break up of the Union.

Scotland just wants rid of the Tories, and with good reason.

While you're at it why not shed Wales another "annoying parasitical state".

Just using your argument. ;).

That whining Scottish voice of hers is starting to get on my nerves. Her problem, of course, is that the majority of her countrymen do NOT want to split from the U.K. That won't stop her from droning on about it; but Sturgeon has no more of a clue about the answers to the really pressing questions on independence, than her predecessor, wee Alec. They gloss over the problems, in a Micawberish way, and rely on "it will be alright on the night" in place of sound policy.

It amazes me that so many of her countrymen seem prepared to risk all on a very doubtful outcome.

Love to.

Large chunks of land round here were in england prior to being handed to wales to manufacture gwent in 1971.

And as I said elsewhere if plaid did declare UDI they'd be really pissed at the lineup to be the new head of state. Charlee Wingnuts need not apply btw.

I'd hazard a guess and say that Sturgeon is worried at losing votes to a newly left wing again Labour party.

It's time that the U.K, government reverses the thrust of this on going saga and offers the rest of the U.K, the opportunity to vote whether or not we want the whinging Scots as part of the Union. The nuclear submarine base will have to be re-located sooner or later and this Tory government was wrong to invest further in it's upgrading in Scotland. The S.N.P, have stated that they do not want an independent Scotland until certain issues, such as the shortfall in state pensions, were sorted to their satisfaction. In other words, they'll make the break when it suits them. Someone with the political courage, (like Margret Thatcher and the Coal miner's Union bully boys) needs to call the bluff of Sturgeon and her kiltie rebels and tell them to take the high road to hell. No use of the pound sterling, ( they can have their own Scottish pound) strict border controls, no automatic membership of the E.U. and a total ban on anyone saying ark aye the noo outside Scotland.

Could be true in Scotland especially if Comrade Corbyn promises to print Scottish versions of the £Sterling and drop these from helicopters over Glasgow. Pity Sturgeon does not just get on with raising more taxes locally and building her Socialist Paradise.

A rare example of being astute.
The Scottish will surely be more inclined towards Labour once they ditch their 'Establishment' credentials. Those newly acquired seats being at far greater risk .......

You need educating. Put down your tabloidesque broadsheet and listen up.

Helicopter money? It sounds so catchy doesn't it? Corbyn flying over our towns and cities shovelling out money to grateful citizens, but that is not was he was talking about was it? What he was proposing was cutting the private banking system out of the loop and using the BoE to fund much needed infustructure, mad? Well not really the present system involves giving banks low interest money and the banks then lend the money back plus interest!

And let me remind you that the Bank of England WAS set up to fund state projects, after a series of calamitous naval defeats at the hands of the French the Bank was set up in 1694 to bankroll the armed forces and the industries needed to wage wars, bailing out private banks was not part of it's remit until very recently, why even a parasite, sorry hedge fund manager, by the name of Paul Marshall (of City firm Marshall-Wace) has said it could work, although ironically he claims it could lead to inflation, presumably like the present property boom Mr Marshall?

So there it is, it's neither mad nor unworkable, what a shame a mere uneducated, coarse, blue collar worker had to explain all this to a former captain of industry!

File under I blame all the cold showers and canings of the 1950's education system.
