I disagree on this context. Scotland is almost as partisan as NI. I have no knowledge of what the Welsh think so don’t presume to speak for them. I know what the English think and they don’t give a hoot about whether NI is UK or not.Originally posted by TestMangler View PostAnd there's part of the problem right there.....It's supposed to be a 'United kingdom' you ******* moron.
So you’re the moron missing the point.See You Next TuesdayComment

And Scotland agreed to stay in the UK without resorting to killing each other.Originally posted by WTFH View PostSorry I didn't link to my source for the data, but here it is:

Scotland isn't as sticky a subject as:
1. They don't have a physical land border with an EU country
2. The question of Scotland being part of the UK has not caused 3,000+ deaths in the last few decades
3. Scotland has somewhere to house nuclear subs
4. Scotland has somewhere to house Paul Dacre
5. Scotland has oil
Kinda important that one.See You Next TuesdayComment

According to figures, the rest of England is a drain on London.Originally posted by TestMangler View PostAccording to 'figures', Scotland is also a drain on the UK. Shouldn't the UK government then be advocating its break up on financial grounds ?
I advocate the Independent Kingdom of London, with border posts at each junction of the M25.Comment

No, part of the UK.Originally posted by Lance View PostPart of the EU you mean surely?
It was something that I discussed with others recently (can't remember if I posted about it on here)
Option 1: UK (including NI) outside EU, Ireland inside. Issue: The Border, CTA
Option 2: GB outside EU, Ireland (island) inside. Issue: Free movement of goods and people for Ireland would be difficult, since geographically most goes through the UK, CTA
Option 3: UK & Ireland outside the EU. No issue with the border, no issue with the CTA, no issue with free movement of goods and services. Only the minor ( :lol: ) issue that the Irish don't want it.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

We shall see. By the time any deal has been fudged we’d be better off inside with a rebate, a veto and influence.Originally posted by Zigenare View PostUnacceptable - we have voted and the majority have chosen that we leave.

Who would negotiate that then?Originally posted by Lance View PostWe shall see. By the time any deal has been fudged we’d be better off inside with a rebate, a veto and influence.
There is no way on earth that the EU would offer that. Their treatment of Cameron the last time he went cap-in-hand certainly did something to contribute to the referendum result.Comment
