the british prime minister will have to invoke article 50 in a few mths time which takes britain out of the EU..........the scotish national party will claim scotland will not want to be part of that process - based on todays EU vote - and will hold a referendum to opt out of that process and stay in the EU..........its on the way lads...........THIS WILL BE INTERESTING

I want a referendum in Scotland to decide if we want a referendum?
SICK OF THIS CRAP - GET ON WITH LIFE. the SNP is in power. For fifty years they were the fringe party... the side lined nutters in the corner. Start governing NOW. stop looking for some utopia that does not exist. You have power now you SNP twits. Do something you want to do? Such twits ? |

Can't see how the Scots can remain in the EU if England is no longer in?
They would be totally dependent on the good will of England to transport goods coming and going with the rest of the EU. This scenario also has big impact now for southern Ireland. It will also be a big bargaining chip for us when negotiations start with the EU |

Id agree with that bdj.
You'd think they'd appreciate the chance we all now have, Other countries might get out - so why on earth would you want back in  |

Do they honestly believe that the EU will let them keep the free prescriptions, eye tests and university places that they currently have subsidised by other tax payers?

It's interesting how democrats appear to shun democracy when it brings about results that they do not like.

If Britain was voting on whether to Leave or Remain in the EU & Scotland
voted in favour of Remaining in the EU, how can Nicola Sturgeon assume this means Scottish people would rather Remain in the EU but break away from the United Kingdom? Does she really think people would more or less vote exactly the same Sounds like Scotland have got a right little trouble maker on their hands there |

They cannot have another referendum they had one two years ago....they decided to stay part of the UK, so have to accept
the majority democratic decision of the UK. They cannot just opt out of any democratic decision that does not suit Scotland. If they rejoin the EU then factories my move to Scotland from other parts in the UK, to give them access to the single market. Other areas in the UK will lose out, as will the remainder of the UK will as a whole. Immigrants will come into Scotland, what is to stop them moving to other areas of the UK? So despite leaving the EU the UK will still be taking in immigrants. Unless we establish a border between Scotland and the rest of the UK, this is expensive and inconvenient. In fact if Scotland rejoin the UK then so will the rest of the UK. So another referendum on the EU will be needed. The one we have just had will be invalid, because it was for the whole of the UK including Scotland, we now need another referendum on the UK without Scotland????? |

By:
In fact the majority of Scottish voters voted on the whole of the UK remaining in the UK.
Now this includes Scotland Iknow, but there was no option on the referendum voting slip just to say Scotland could stay in? So strictly speaking, this is not the same. |

When the Scottish referendum took place it was known that Cameron would offer the UK a referendum on membership of the EU (he announced this in 2013). Therefore any vote to remain in the UK would have been placed with full knowledge that there was a fair chance that, when the EU referendum took place, the UK would exit. To therefore call for a second referendum in Scotland over membership of the UK insults the democratic will of those who voted to remain in 2014.

Lets call Sturgeon's BLUFF. Let her have a 2nd Indy ref. Scotland will NOT vote for it. As already stated the SNP are a one trick pony. I'm fooked off listening to the same old shiote spouted by them

Quite correct Evgeny, I think this is a bit of a stitch upmyself.
Well if you are sure it is a bluff Kriskin????????? |

I wonder how many scottish people live in england v scottish people in other countries ?
English & the Scottish get along fine (apart from sporting events, then we get drunk and kiss and make up), even though scots would like to be in the eu i reckon they would rather be in the uk given the ultimatum. |
|
By:
I would also add Ebul that it insults the intelligence of those who voted to remain as a call for a second referendum in Scotland implies that they would not have considered Brexit when making their decision in 2014.
Since Friday's result there have been some very silly people trying to make spurious arguments as to why the decision should be overturned. These people are democrats yet they could not be behaving more undemocratically if they tried. The people of the UK have spoken and the majority have said that they wish to leave the European Union. That is all that matters. |
|
By:
Well all the referendum is telling us is that the majority of Scottish people would rather the UK remained in the EU,
nothing more. It says nothing about Scotland splitting off from the UK? The SNP are trying to use it to further their cause of Scottish independence. I agree with your last line Evgeny. |
|
By:
What hypocrites, why dont they argue to stay in and try to reform it. Also I doubt they would put in a double lock so no area gets dragged out of the UK against its will.

"Also I doubt they would put in a double lock so no area gets dragged out of the UK against its will."
Exactly, if the results were similar to the last referendum and most of Scotland voted to stay but Glasgow voted leave and it totalled 50.01% out, all talk of people being "dragged out against their will" would be forgotten. The SNP take hypocrisy to record levels. |

Twice the world establishment lined up warning the Scots how to vote and twice we obliged. Imo we would do the same in a second indyref. What we would be told to do is the question....
