May agrees to referendum - Reunification of Ireland

The average swing voter views these conspiracy theories for what they are, ramblings of people who are beyond help.

Sturgeon has chucked her cards in on independence. Right now she gets to fly to Argentina for a 2 days visit to talk to Bianca Jagger about climate change. She incorrectly gets referred to as a head of state on her regular needless visits abroad. Her ego has expanded beyond her position.

If she does another referendum and she loses which is almost certain her 150k salary will go, her husband will lose his more than 100K salary as SNP chief exec. The family income will go from 250k to 62k which is the salary for a MSP.

There is absolutely no way this woman will ever agitate for another referendum. Never.

Wrong again and where to start? I know - lets start with Bianca Jagger who came to Edinburgh to speak to Nicola Sturgeon and they did not meet in Argentina:

Nicola's visit's abroad are not needless. They are laying the groundwork for Independent Scotland's place in the world.

Nicola doesn't take the full £155,680 salary she is entitled to.

The first minister's salary entitlement will rise to £155,680, but all Scottish government ministers will again choose to freeze their pay at 2008-09 rates.

The additional money provided by the pay freeze - which will continue until at least 2021 - is made available for public spending.

If Nicola is no longer First Minister, her husband will still be Chief Exec of the SNP. It's not a tied job !!

My mistake, she flew to Germany to talk to Bianca about climate change.

I've lost track of all the free holidays climate change meeting she attends.

Maybe someone should track the air miles used for all those climate change conferences.

She flew to California to sign a bit of paper on climate change...

The car expenses alone on that trip were 8 grand.

Mind you it's tiny compared to Alex Salmond's legendary trips to the US. 500k so he could watch the golf..

All the promises in 2014 have not been kept so it's only right we look at Independence again.

One of the biggest lies was that oil was running out and would be finished within 5 years. This is before we can drill at the west coast which we can't do at the moment because of the nuclear subs. Once we get rid of them then we're good to go.

What are you going to do with all that oil when the EU bans petrol and diesel vehicles?

Of course, they may consider the Scottish economy to be too risky for them to be allowed into the EU anyway. Problem solved.

The tricky thing now for an independent Scotland within the EU (if that is the goal) is the hard border with England.
