vikingTON Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Your country is in the EU. The UK is your country. No, Scotland is my country. The UK is a state which contains several countries. Unlucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Perhaps H_B could fill out some very straightforward country/state identifiers for each of the below failed states: Czechoslovakia: ______ state containing ____ countries. Yugoslavia: _______ state containing ______ (this is tricky) countries. CDU: _______ state containing _________ (excluding the failed statelet, very straightforward) countries.

H_B Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 It depends on your definition of country. There is no singular definition of country. I consider Scotland to be a nation, and I only regard countries with international law personality to be countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I only regard countries with international law personality to be countries. How convenient. Unfortunately this isn't cheeseandchateauneufdupape.com though, so your international law posturing isn't going to pass muster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it is reflected in your other posts on this matter? Your country is in the EU. The UK is your country. The UK is currently in the EU. Scotland is not. Scotland aren't in the EU. Nope. Scots are in the EU though. Ah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Rational Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Gilmertons going to full count, labour thought they had it in the bag, the first count was neck and neck. They should still win it though..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeGas Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 How convenient. Unfortunately this isn't cheeseandchateauneufdupape.com though, so your international law posturing isn't going to pass muster. Your problem (if it is a problem to you) is hoping Scotland votes for Independence,otherwise you remain Scottish and British/UK-er. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't an international law point. International law doesn't seek to prescriptively define a "country".

SuperCaleyGoBallistic Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Some terrible posters emerging on both sides of the debate recently. Although DeeGas still remains as the worst of the lot. I wonder how many of them are Paulo Sergio characters. This #WINNING appears to be PS. The GIF's give it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Awful lot of ambiguity there. I hope it is reflected in your other posts on this matter? All of what I have said there is correct. Scotland isn't an EU member. The UK is an EU member. Scots are EU citizens by virtue of being UK subjects. Post secession Scotland will have to apply for EU membership. The UK will retain its existing EU membership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#WINNING Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 The unionists seem very upset today. The three Yoorosceptic's also don't seem to be bringing up another total fail from UKIP north of the border. Awkward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just pointing out a fact,just so you know your democratic place,Northern Britain. If Scotland votes to leave the Union then fair enough. In the meantime sunshine, you're British.

xbl Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 And lets not forget this! Kevin Pringle @KevinJPringle 30m SNP by-election survey of 19,183 voters in #Donside on #indyref - Yes 34%, No 29%, DK 37%: no #Yes majority yet, but all to play for in 2014 Expand Reply Retweet Favorite Amusing as it is to watch HB do the hokey cokey, that poll is exactly along the lines that I've been describing things for a long time. Awfully soft no vote there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Again we see the vile side of British nationalism, dressed up as 'unionism'. Still, this never happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My passport says I'm a citizen, not a subject. Indeed: Briton's haven't been 'subjects' since the early 1980s. Cheers anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
