Scottish independence referendum Mk 2

[PurpleGorilla]

Well the Tories used tax money from Scottish tax payers to pay for a campaign no one in Scotland voted for.

Sorry you were saying something about saving?

UK Gov used £9mil of public money on the Remain toilet paper.

Get over it.

And the Leave campaign used tax avoiders (or should I say, offshore finances) money

yes I suppose you did pay a little bit towards the last Scottish Independence vote, I was hoping the SNP would fund the next one to save England paying for most of it again.

The Scottish parliament has no power to hold a legally-binding referendum.

If the UK PM wishes she could simply say "No".

Or "Not until we complete the BREXIT separation".

Scooterscot, what are your views on independence?

You seem to be anti-independence, but then pro-independence, depending on which thread you read.

Scotland has a lot more trade with the rest of the UK than it does with the EU. Why would it want to give up its largest trading partner?

The SNP only want to be EU members so they can continue to have a reason to exist, i.e. to then gain independence from the EU.

The SNP's stance in the last referendum was a lot more 'we want to have our cake and eat it' than Theresa May, and the business case was based on the price of oil which simply isn't there any more. I mean FFS, the SNP still wanted to keep the pound.

[SlipTheJab]

Technically if Scotland leaves the UK before Britain leaves the EU then who is leaving the EU? No one.

Check mate.

Fandabidozy!!

From snp.org, right?

Nicola has blown her wad, I'm afraid. South of the border, no one takes her seriously any more...

Only those with sense take her seriously. There absolutely will be another referendum the way things are going and after the result of the last one and recent events, only a fool would be blase about the result. She made it clear immediately after the referendum result another indyref was on the table if Scotland's interests weren't taken into consideration and once again, the government has totally ignored what scotland wants... so where you get the idea she's flip-flopping or not serious I've no idea.

Indyref feels like the last major political event that went the way it was 'supposed to'... and even that was touch and go for a bit.
