Britain is basically a Poundstretcher USA at this point. Any more like this post, and the seethe will get near to erotic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivo den Bieman Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 another omnishambles in the press. May manages to combine the least attractive characteristics of both Brown (a bit inhuman, aloof, unable to relate to most other people, with Cabinet Ministers shut out largely of decision making) and Cameron (vapid headline chasing and policy-making-on-the-hoof, playing to the Tory right wing gallery) whilst seemingly being less competent than either of them. She will be hounded out once the full grimness of the Brexit process is revealed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're wrong though, the UK doesn't even have a hand, it'll get the deal the eu tells it its getting. Scotland would be in exactly the same situation.

dorlomin Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 The government seems to have backed down and now accepts it will release some negotiating outline to parliament. Just as soon as someone works out what the plan is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 10 hours ago, bob the tank said: Hey, I thought during the run up to indyref1 that Scotland was to help lead the UK and was a vital part of the great britain. Apparently not according to "our" advocate general at the supreme court, he has been talking Scotland down and basically saying that we should just kowtow to our Westminster/English betters and go back to eating our cereal. Advocate general "for" Scotland ffs, glad he's not against us.... He's correct though. Sections 1&2 of the Scotland act may present a political impediment but are a legal fiction. Holyrood is no more permanent nor has any more right to block primary legislation from Westminster than the Forestry Commission. I don't think they thought they would be in a position where that was exposed so soon though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop Briggs Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 2 hours ago, John Lambies Doos said: They could have been leaving for Edinburgh; if it wasn't for the wee narrow minded britnats No they couldn't. If Scotland had voted Yes, it would have left the EU because it had separated from a Member State. The Coalition Government had a ruled out a currency union with an independent Scotland. The banks that had head offices in Scotland were planning to move them to London to keep the Bank of England as their lender of last resort. The SNP's White Paper did not have a credible policies on trade with rUK, the currency union or EU membership. It needed to have a plans for an independent Scottish currency, a Scottish central bank and a process for joining the the Single Market and then the EU. The failure to have such credible plans and the related uncertainty produced the No vote - not narrow minded British nationalism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
