Indeed like the 60 billion Euro bill.Originally posted by vetran View Postas I say if you vote to leave and can encourage the EU to keep you then fine.
Last time Scotland voted to stay.
I would like to see Scotland pay for the next referendum after all its only fair. We also should make clear what you walk away with if you vote to leave before you vote.
I wonder what's for desert.

Lets see if they have the guts to finally leave.
It would only be the UKSSR if we were intent on centralising government not devolving power.

Is there much difference between Wilders and Sturgeon? Both extreme nationalists.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostFrom the story:
A bit like the deranged elderly Brexit voters dreaming of a return to the 1970's
There is no chance Wilders will get a majority. The Dutch are not that stupid.
