    If the UK allows a second referendum the government will have to set out what leaving means rather then let it be argued about if the result is leave.

    They've been tweaking the laws up there, so as far as I know, they could go for it. My guess is Boris is about ready to put his feet up, as he can claim he's achieved his goals, and leave before the hard work starts.

    Flustered?

    Flustered by you spouting the same pish that's been shot down in flames countless times before?

    Tell us again about the Shetland Isles and how they want independence, that was a doosy!

    I think the rules dictate that the question has to be clear and unambiguous. I think the choice will be to remain in the UK, or become Independent and destitute.

    Prediction: SNP sweep the board in May. Tubs de Pfeffel says no. One SNP resignation a week. Returned with increased majorities in by elections. TdP runs up white flag in early '22.

    Years ending '22 not shaping up well for keeping the country together!

    I've never said they want independence, they certainly want more control though, as they feel very let down by wee Krankie, as they see she's out of touch and remote, which is amusingly ironic. If you want to try to wriggle away from your failure, at least try not to **** up your wriggle. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Yes you did. You think if Shetland or the Orkneys got their independence from Scotland they would take the oil with them. I schooled you on that just like i schooled you on your currency pish and every other mental thing you post about a subject you know fùck all about.

    Its the Little Englander in you. You and Sexpest and DuMD are all cut from the same cloth, Scotland would be "destitute" without England.

    The worst thing about this drivel is you actually believe it.

    Sheeple!

    Nope, you're obviously confused. The article I seem to recall linking, even quoted the local leader saying it wasn't independence, and I think it was even in the headline.

    You've not 'schooled' me on anything. You've spurted your deranged ramblings and scuttled off. The pure and simple facts are, you have no currency that would let you trade on the international markets, other than asking permission to remain fixed to the Sterling, over which you would have no control, would come at a cost, and would weaken your opportunities for deals with other Countries, as well as preclude you from applying to go on the waiting list to be considered for joining the EU.

    It's a tad ironic, that a one trick pony like you, who spurts out the same failed topic time and again, which is for Scottish isolation, which if it was linked to the EU would come with a fixed border, and no free movement over it, describes me, who is happy for other nations to do as the people choose, and welcomes the opportunities that trade with the wider world, including movement of people brings, as a little Englander. :emoticon-0136-giggl

    I think another vote would be a No again in Scotland, I'd keep a watching brief for a few years let the Tories do a bit of damage but the Nats seem to want everything yesterday and have no patience

    If there hasn't been enough damage done by this bunch of imbeciles to secure a Yes vote then there never will be mate.

    And Scotland will go down in infamy as the biggest steaming pile of cowardly shìte to ever have been shat into existence.

    And I shall move to Cyprus.

    Damage by the Tories? Hmm.

    There are some very long lists, including holding on to £1 billion of the funds sent from the UK to aid in tackling Covid, but just to pick out a few 'achievements' of the party that reckons it can stand on its own feet.

    As wee krankie said, “judge me by my record on education”

    Okay, down in maths, down in science, fewer young people from deprived backgrounds getting to university than England (where they increased tuition fees let alone abolished them), employers desperately trying to plug the skills gap left by the SNP’s reformed education system.

    Increases of racism and sectarianism in Scotland. Drugs and crime on the increase, and the Scottish Police Federation declaring that 'This SNP Government is increasingly seen as given up on Policing".

    Nine years to deliver a system to deal with Welfare Benefits, that amounts to 15% of total welfare spend in Scotland.

    Increased taxes – and raised LESS revenue for public services.

    Edinburgh’s new Sick Children’s Hospital was supposed to open at the end of 2012.
