hearthammer Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 de pfeffelll probably thought that the appointment of Keen, the Advocate of Scotland (??), to counter the Scottish Supreme Court decision was a master stroke. However, the 11 seated are takin' nane o' his snash 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Tbf to this guy he's talking details to the judges, Pannick was speaking largely to the gallery, ie us, in words we could easily follow. The judges don't look impressed though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because obviously it's going to be best for Scotland to be tied to a shower of raging gammon b*****ds. I kind of thought that's what he was on about. I was trying to make the point that anything Willie Rennie comes out with - on any subject, should be dispatched right back up his arse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTJohnboy Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 That vacuous bint, Swinson, banging on about how she is Scottish, British and European and urging Scotland to join her. What she doesn't seem to realise that by the end of next month she might no longer have the option of being European. If you want to be Scottish and European, there's only one party to vote for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They couldn't read all the thousands of pages over a few days and properly evaluate everything. Also I noticed they were getting fed up of hearing the thoughts of academics and retired judges' commentaries in the journals and the press, and wanted the nitty gritty from actual court judgements. I saw on the Guardian that the Cherry side were reading out blogs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not really an option. You are European by virtue of being from Europe. European existed as an identity long before the EU and encompasses a wider range of countries than the EU 28. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, it's not a change in geographic location that we are contemplating here, it's not cracking the seabed open and launching the UK a few hundred miles further into the North Atlantic that's got everyone worried (albeit after the NI to Scotland bridge idea, it can't be far behind). Being European in this context means being in the EU, as it's the political and cultural alignment on rules and regulations that is at stake. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
