Rejoice and rejoin

Clever folks those scots!

EU should ‘hang out welcome sign’ for an independent Scotland


Letter signed by 170 cultural figures seeks a ‘unilateral and open offer’ to rejoin EU ahead of Holyrood elections

European leaders are being urged to make an “unilateral and open offer” to Scotland to rejoin the EU should it vote for independence in a future referendum, in a*letter signed by more than 170 prominent cultural figures*from across the union.

Their letter calls on EU leaders to recognise Scotland’s special position, after it voted to remain by 62% to 38% in the*2016 referendum, by clearly signalling a path for the country to return as a member in advance of any independence referendum so that voters can make an informed choice.

Especially considering how the EU are treating Ireland and Northern Ireland that is genuinely quite possibly the funniest thing I have seen posted in these forums for a long, long time.

You are right. It was quite stupid of the EU to believe in the good faith of the UK. Perfidious albion is a well deserved title for the country and its people.

Oh dear, you really don't learn.
Displaying such hatred towards out country in a part of the forum regarding a UK issue isn't very clever.
Much like the EU as it turns out.



BTW I was talking about the EU's deplorable treatment of Ireland & Northern Ireland and the EU's obvious and blatant disregard for the GFA.

Another stupid, reckless stunt by the cretins in the EU commission.

The world is watching.

Yes, brexit and the gfa cannot be reconciled. Those voting for brexit broke the gfa.

Yes, and the europarliament agrees with you. Therefore they took it onto themselves to decide if and when the UK deviates from the WA or TCA. And to use the teeth to gnaw the UK. 😈

We had an independence referendum in 2014 up here in Scotland Solasch. The result was 55% against.

Stop making off-topic posts!


In response: Brexit alone isn't responsible and you know it.
Barnier & your EU schemed to weaponize the issue rather than have the same sort of workaround that is OK by the EU in other countries like Sweden & Norway.

What teeth is that then ?

The ones belonging to Ursula Von der Leyen who so far has become the figure head of the EU for perpetual humiliation and embarrassment ?

Nobody takes her seriously.
