DeeTillEhDeh Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 We've just seen a vote to leave a political union without an economic plan (or any kind of plan) ... But I do agree with you re: currency, especially.

Free trade deals with the whole world.....apart from Scotland, who they share a land border with.....nae bother And whom they love dearly - but apparently only if we agree to be their northern region and ruled from London; if not, we must be their enemies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 She hasn't played a blinder......she should've kept her big fat cakehole shut. By saying softbrexit or indyref she blew it. She should've kept quiet until AFTER May's speech this week. She gave May the opportunity to call for Hard Brexit and therefore call her bluff and now Sturgeon has nothing left to play with and has painted herself into a corner. She's fucked. End Of! Sturgeon HAS to call a 2nd ref NOW, this week, or look forever weak and indecisive. May has won this little battle in spectacular style. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, changing now will have the regionalists gleefully saying, "you're admitting you got it wrong last time!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look how that turned out, they don't have that argument this time either. Fact is if the UK government hadn't squandered all the revenue generated over the last 50 years we might have been able to protect those jobs. Yep,the money is spent and the oil industry struggling so no white paper with our economy based on the revenue from the oil industry. I'm probably wrong but I think she will need to fill that hole to win votes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUFC90 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Didn't oil exports prop up Osbournes budget last year or the year before ? I seem to remember the BBC banging on about it, the 2nd biggest industry in the UK isn't worth a bean though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
