There's no legal framework for this to happen, so it would need unanimous agreement from the other 27 countries. You still have the Spain/Catalonia issue, so that's still a big ask. But it's still worth a shot in the dark.
On the subject of the Euro there's entry criteria that obviously the UK has never been through. Would the EU waive that? Doesn't seem likely which means Scotland would need its own currency for a few years first. I think we've been here before. It's CUK 2014 all over again.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

Originally posted by scooterscot View PostAll day yesterday we've been trying to make rational sense of the news without success. Our family is broken and our way life we've taken for granted pulled out from under our feet. Just profound sadness. I still can't quite believe it that the UK fell for the absurdities spouted from the likes of Farage, Johnson and Gove.
I'm lucky to be living in the EU but my heart goes out to all my friends and family that will now suffer in Scotland and indeed in the rest of the U.K. as a result of a weak prime minister who abdicated his elected responsibilities and asked a largely uninformed and misled nation to make this choice for him.
Yesterday was glorious.Comment
