    Oh dear, how sad. But cheer up, once Brexit happens then Nicola will call a second referendum, during which they can all vote to stay in an Independent Scotland that is neither part of the UK NOR the EU!!!
    Course there won't be any jobs left for them because the big cosy umbilical connection to the Westminster coffers that underpins most of them, will have been cut! How we'll laugh!
    Won't affect you anyway, you will still have your job as a lollypop man in Bavaria!!

      Merkel shifts on FOM:

      I will be honest, if a concession on FOM had been made prior to the referendum, I think remain would have won. I probably would on balance have voted for remain in those circumstances, also.

      I'm not 100% brexit. When I voted I was 60% brexit. It's a complex argument on both sides so on balance I favoured one choice. I can't believe that this is not also the case for many others.

      But...

      Today, having taking the collective decision to leave the EU, presented now with a EUlite minus FOM option I am NOT INTERESTED.

      My views on the EU have moved too far away from the centre, it would be too little too late.

        So the main reason the Scots voted to remain in the UK was so that they would also remain in the EU? Why didn't Nicola Krankie just say that Scotland would simply apply for EU membership post indy referendum? I'd like to know where your "significant influence" figures come from, btw. Smells like sour grape flavoured bullsh!t to me.

          What was wrong with the question? Juncker wasn't elected by anyone.

            And you know that the judge would have had to put the alternative argument I. E. The pm could use RP. Just seems the Indy didn't bother reporting that bit.

            And ultimately, the Government can just ignore the verdict if it oversteps their remit.

              Nor was May...Try reading the question, maybe you can work it out, eventually
              Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                The electorate of Maidenhead would probably disagree...

                  May was elected by her constituents. They can unelected her too. The Conservative majority was elected by the people of the UK. We don't have a President in this country.

                  Try to understand how the system works here before writing nonsense.

                  And Juncker wasn't elected by anyone. That was the question.

                      he was unfortunately, the council elected him. He wasn't elected by any normal voters.

                      The real question is who in their right mind would elect Juncker?
