Re: Starting Date announced.
Well, as expected,100% of the SNP are going to vote against invoking Article 50 in parliament today.
Nicola is also expected to launch for a second referendum for Scottish Independence today also.She will argue that the changed landscape of the country following the EU referendum legitimises a second vote.
It is interesting to note that a YouGov poll taken last week shows that 54% do not want a second referendum on independence.
The findings have disappointed the SNP. YouGov found that with just 37% backing a second referendum and 50% opposed, should they be successful in forcing another vote, the results would be almost identical to last time, 54% of Scots against Independence and 46% in favour.
So it looks as though the sensible majority of canny Scots have blown a huge raspberry at Nicola. We can but hope that if the above is what it is, she will finally shut her mouth and start doing what she is meant to be doing, looking after the welfare of the people of Scotland instead of continuously causing division within the union by voting against the will of the people of the United Kingdom who, by a majority, voted to leave the EU!
