Can't quite agree with my fellow remainers on here that leaving the EU didn't mean leaving the single market, customs union and ECJ. What exactly did leave mean then?
Leaving the EU means leaving the EU, all the rest is just wiggle room.

What he means is 17 million voting for Brexit (from an electorate of 46 million) is overwhelming.
It is, to find out we have 17 million racists in the UK is overwhelming, it is disturbing.
38% of Scottish voters is below half but still overwhelming.

Absolute dereliction of duty from the PM, putting (temporary) self-preservation ahead of the national interest. This hapless government should already have been skewered and filleted, but Corbyn the Imposter is hardly Vlad the Impaler. Sturgeon attempted to rouse him into action via Twitter, but she was clearly labouring under the misapprehension that the eviscerated husk masquerading as leader of the opposition was still breathing.
Most accurate description of Corbyn that I’ve seen today (on the comments section of the Independent website): ‘a bumbling ideologue who’s a bit thick‘.
Labour leadership still defiantly trying to avoid taking a position on a second referendum despite the membership being overwhelmingly in favour.
Both May and Corbyn stalling pathetically as the Doomsday clock ticks relentlessly on.
It’s long past time to take on the extremists, not pander to them as the cowering incumbents of the major political offices have done for far too long.
Time to confront the utter folly of Brexit, discredit it and dismantle it.But it's not going to plan for the ERG.

If Labour back May this will isolate the Gammons, they will be right out the picture.

I'm starting to think that a hard brexit or no deal will make winning indy ref 2 all the harder. There will be a hard border, that much is clear and i doubt many nos will change their mind on the back of that.
What would their concerns be?

Celtic have scored 10 goals in their last two league games but before that they were only scoring a goal a game. A return to that form would be good.
We need to try to bully them in midfield, they will not like that with no Broony to protect them. We need to put the ball in the box, even though they don't concede too many they look weak in the centre of defence when Boyata is out.
We beat Celtic last time but Brendan put out a weakened team. This time he's taking the game seriously but we can still get a result.

51.89% voted out.
72.21% of the eligible electorate voted.
About 36.72% of the eligible electorate voted to leave the EU.
Only 36.72% of the electorate. Brexit should be cancelled instead of pandering to the minority.

I would counter this, and only because I have in-laws in Carlisle. They do not find it relevant. You are right that the jurisdiction is the same as Kent but the problem is their lives are not homogeneously English, they live and work both sides of the border, are affected by decisions made both sides of the border and in turn find the London (or SE) centric views that come from the main media outlets as frustrating and annoying as those of us North of the border.
Seeing lots of English liking to whine about BBC being biased against Labour and pro Tory.

The Unionist print media in Scotland going full pelt in trying to manufacture a split in the SNP/Yes movement with their headlines.
It's not even reporting, it's fake news and they are all working to an agenda.
This one is quite funny.

If it was that serious, why has it taken 5 years to come to light ?
Is it maybe because it's people playing politics ???
So going by your mock "outrage" here, I'd be interested to know how you all feel about Donald Trump ??
Maybe not but maybe the girls were asked to keep a lid on the allegations for the time being as it would have been bad for the party. Maybe they just felt that way themselves.

Of course he's not the devil incarnate. Loved him as a player. Liked his first managerial stint with us. Took brave decisions on Budgement Day that almost all turned out to be spot-on. Steadied the ship when Cathro went and stopped us being soft as shite. But recruitment quality and scale ( and failure to hold on to some of the better players for longer ) had been very poor. He's over 4 years into his 5 year plan and talking about needing 9 players. Thin ice.
This is it, he needs to do it now. His 5 years are up at the end of the season. I think we have been patient, we have watched some amount of rubbish.
Good luck Craig Levein.

Edinburgh City Council continue to plough ahead with the trams down Leith Walk. Despite saying that no decision has been taken given that they have already started building the new tram stop and gyratory at Piccardy Place it seems only a matter of time. What is perhaps most galling is that the council has spent about £5.5 million pounds and another £3.6 million from the SG to do up parts of Leith Walk, resurfacing roads, new cycle lanes and other decorative bits and pieces. These of course will need to be torn up when the tram works kick off representing a staggering waste of money.
Do you know the names of the individuals given responsibility for looking after this money and making sure it is used to it's best effect.
The way that money is wasted in Edinburgh, it always seems like we have some boys from the bowling club and ladies from the local bingo being told they can spend it how they see fit.
It would be better if clever people were put in charge.

Actually think the relationship between Scotland and England would vastly improve after independence
It could be a lot worse, with England being independent and Scotland in the EU we will not have frictionless trade.

What benefits
Boris has been chatting.
Imagine Trump doing Brexit... He’d go in bloody hard… There’d be all sorts of breakdowns, all sorts of chaos. Everyone would think he’d gone mad. But actually you might get somewhere. It’s a very, very good thought.

The fear of short-term disruption has become so huge in people’s minds that they’ve turned into a quivering wreck. Unless you make the change, unless you have the guts to go for the independent policy, you’re never going to get the economic benefits of Brexit. You’ll never get the political benefits of Brexit.

After we leave the UK Andrew Wilson wants us to have a frictionless free trade with the UK as well as us being a member of the EU?
This sounds like the cake and eat it thing, I did not think that this was possible, this is what the Tories are asking for?
Am I reading it wrong?

And they wants to keep the pound for the frictionless trade and market access with the UK.

I've suspected for a while that the SNP are more interested in establishing an apparatus than campaigning for independence but i'm genuinely surprised that they actually knifed the independence movement in the back.
Years of piggybacking on the pound after the dissolution of the Union and a commitment to a decade of austerity are policies designed to fail. In 2014 the independence campaign was positive and seemed ahead of the curve. Today's document is regressive and reminiscent of the pre crash SNP when Salmond was brown nosing Goodwin and Trump and Ireland's tax avoidance schemes were aspirational. 50+1 will never be achieved by beige managerialism.
You read this?

Solid backing for pro-Brexit parties though.
As much as it's a horrible nightmare the sizable majority of the English want Brexit and to give the EU a damn good licking, 27 sore bottoms to one.
The English voted for their independence from the EU and foreigners in England voted against separation?
The English need to go all the way and have a vote for independence from the UK.
