      No, for once I can see where Scooter is coming from - Here's an example:

      See? All one sentence

        Is that it LOL 160,000 EU nationals from other countries in the whole of Scotland.

        160k in a population of 5.2 million.

        3.07% of the population.

        We get 160,000 arriving every month.

        The UK has 3.2 million EU citizens (https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulat...sh-nationality)

        So 3 million living in Wales, England and NI

          Ah, but according to Scooter, that tiny proportion were responsible for derailing IndyRef#1. You couldn't make it up!!

            The SNP would hold a referendum every year if it could. They only have to get lucky once...

            Is there really a demand from the average punter for another vote? The last one wasn't a good experience for Scotland. Or was it?

              Well it was for the majority 55% who thought they'd put the issue to bed for a generation. Sadly, the minority tartan mafia are still bumping their gums about getting another go, and blaming the first failure on bloody furriners!!

                  Jeremy Corbyn says a second Scottish independence referendum would be 'absolutely fine' | The Independent

                  Well Komrade Korbyn is supporting it, so we can safely assume it won't happen, on the basis everything he touches turns to rat-tulip. I hear he claims to be an Arsenal fan, which explains a lot.

                    He he. And everything the Tories touch at the minute shines with a gold like colour eh?

                      The SNP has a target for immigration of 25000 per year which is never met as, let's be honest, nobody really wants to live here. With the aging demographic they know the pension numbers for independence will never work out unless they can attract people of working age.
