Re: Another Blow for Scottish Independence
1. We already know the answer
2. A referendum would divide Scotland even more
3. We already had one and it was for a generation.
4. What would the question be ?
Scotland doesn't want another referendum either. The results on Thursday prove that.

Scotch people from all over the world allowed to vote ?
English people living in Scotland allowed to vote ?
I think that before they arrange another referendum the % required
to achieve a result should be raised to about 60% in order to
avoid the arguments we had with brexit ??
Donkeyman! 👍🤔🤔👍
If its a referendum on breaking up the UK then the whole of the UK should vote.

Put that way l would agree then !
But the zealots wouldn't .
Nicola seems to have got the bit between her teeth now she has
gained a mere 1% of them vote and is rarin to go !!
Imo, she should wait a couple more to allows things to settle after
brexit, and meantime we should reform the rules regarding
referendums, such as the % required to obtain a result and
clarifying the length of time needed between referendums !!
But of course Nicola will scream the house down ?
Seems that Boris's tactic at the moment is the correct one ??
Donkeyman! 👍👍

Re: Another Blow for Scottish Independence
She'll lose it... again.
Then she'll demand yet another... again!
I think it's best just to ignore her.
However, any money sent from England should be accounted for. There have been accusations that she's been sidelining it to use for her independence campaign!

Re: Another Blow for Scottish Independence
Well....I think thats pretty common right across the board...they are all happy to take the money but hazy as to where it goes or what its for. If Nicola wants her way, she'll have to come up with a better, more transparent agenda. I really cannot be doing with this vague faffing about.
