The United Nations states that each nation should be able to self-determine without the need for the oppressor to give permission.

You "self-determined" in 2014 ya fooking roaster!

We have to ask permission in the form of a section 30 order from Westminster. Imagine if you had to ask permission from the EU to hold the Brexit referendum?

If it's refused we can test it in the courts which will be the way we go. The United Nations states that each nation should be able to self-determine without the need for the oppressor to give permission.

Bloody hell, you really are paranoid, aren't you? Oppressors?

Freeeeeedoooooom!

As far as I am aware no one is stopping you

except yourselves

because you had one a few years back

and there are some people in scotland who want to keep asking the same question over and over again in the hope they eventually get the answer they want.

but like some people in England really.

Norway has rejected the UK idea of joining EFTA as a Brexit solution, as they view the UK as a trouble maker.
I believe that an Independent Scotland would be able to join EFTA and therefore enjoy the same rights as Switzerland, Norway and Iceland.

So the UK is a "troublemaker" and Scotland isn't? Haven't they heard of Nicola Sturgeon?

And following the Indy Vote in 2014, that was delivered upon.

Right up until 2016, when the whole of the UK (including Scotland, which had voted to stay as a part of that same UK) voted by a majority to LEAVE the EU.

It is such a simple concept that even a guileless piece of plankton like YOU ought to be able to grasp it.

Nope. He's still struggling...

As I said, circumstances have drastically changed and so have Scotland public opinion. england promised Scotland something and then delivered the opposite (and, by the way, something the vast majority of Scotland did not vote for).

england holding on to that old vote is just proving my point: you guys are literally TERRIFIED of being abandoned.

I said you're like an old girlfriend that we've outgrown but actually you look more like a child afraid of the dark. Don't be scared of being alone. It's time for you to grow up and let us go.

Does Shetland have the right to self determination?

Ireland had to fight a war of independence. In these enlightened times, Scotland had a vote and decided it would rather stay in the union.
