If you Scots want to remain in the EU Empire, so you should.
Of course, you'll have to get your act together first and vote for independence from the UK.
Funny how most Scots don't want to leave, though, isn't it?

Are you worried that it will herald a new freedom from political suppression for us?

However, the way things are going May will not have us out at the end of March, so the problem remains.
If we are out on the prescribed date, all well and good.
If not, we may have to wait until the next GE. Hopefully then, the majority having been effectively ignored and overruled, the time will be ripe for the new Brexit Party to make its appearance.
Even assuming that we are still in the EU, which is of course what May is hoping for, there will still be the opportunity for the Brexit Party to do something about it, even if that requires another referendum.

I see Farage being on the scene again as another division and that can't be good. IMO, of course.

As you say, our politics are a complete mess at the moment: both the Conservative and Labour parties come across as incompetent and quite probably corrupt, certainly in the latter case.
The Leaver faction in each of the two parties tends to find themselves being overruled by the remainers, led by the two leaders, Mayday and Compo.
We really do need a new and independent political party, and the people who are being ignored in Parliament at the moment are the 17.4 million who voted to leave the EU.
Surely, those people deserve a political party which offers them their support, don't they?
I'd like to see the new Brexit Party fully established as soon as possible and, even better, the leaver factions in both the Conservative and Labour parties deciding to join it.
The fair representation of the majority in Parliament is surely a definition of true democracy.

Re: Nigel Farage's New Party To Fight Biggest Battle!
JBR,you are forgetting,old bean...for,t'is only thick,dim,stupid,ignorant exiters,who had the absolutely disgraceful front,to actually turn up at the polling stations and have the working-class temerity to vote! Why,it's UTTERLY beneath the educated,intelligent,supreme,insult-hurling autocracy that is known to we head-bowers as 'remainers' to actually get up from their Chippendale armchairs,have the chauffeur drive them to the polling-station,where they would instruct their 'gentleman's gentleman' to vote in accordance with their status. [after all,one never knows WHO was chewing that pencil last,hmm?] So-that just goes to prove the old adage,that 'ignorance' is bliss!
