topcat(The most tip top) Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 If I lived in Buckinghamshire then my opinions of whether Milton Keynes should bother applying for city status, or the road works on Aylebury high street or Bucks council proposed change to taxi fares would probably count for something But I don't live in Buckinghamshire so I'm quite happy to trust @The_Kincardine's opinion on those matters far more than I would on things concerning where I Iive Spoiler To pick out example for that post I looked at the website of "Bucks Herald". It seems like an incredibly dull county (and I've been to Somerset so I know Dull). Their local press is dominated by roadworks and horrible sex crimes. It's clearly got a lot of HGV drivers 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A nation of 60+ million people should not be held to ransom- nor subverted by -a thicket of grievance-junkies. Wow. If you look past the pathetic name-calling, you get to the truth. Even if every voter resident in Scotland voted for independence, Kincy would still want the UK to remain a nation-state because he thinks that a 1707 treaty cannot be repealed. Even though the 1707 borders were changed when the Isle of Man left, and then changed again when Ireland joined and a third chagne was made when a big bit of Ireland left, he believes that these 1707 borders are inviolable!

The extreme Britnat still considers himself to believe in democracy, though... The Treaty of Union was created under international law so it isn't Scotland's to walk away from. I know you don't like that but it does bring us neatly back to why I started this discussion yesterday. You cannot uphold principles abroad whilst ignoring them at home. A pretty simple concept for most people who can do joined up thinking. IF the Treaty of Union is to be set aside then it's a whole-nation decision. There is nothing controversial about this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pretty simple concept for most people who can do joined up thinking. IF the Treaty of Union is to be set aside then it's a whole-nation decision. There is nothing controversial about this. Isn’t it disguising and hypocritical when people witter on about a country wanting to uphold internationally-recognised treaties whilst supporting nations (and people) who are all about smashing them up. Dirty b*****ds. “The Treaty was signed by Edward Heath, the British Prime Minister, in Brussels on 22 January 1972. The European Communities Bill was then introduced in the House of Commons to give parliamentary assent to Britain's membership of the EEC. Although the bill itself consisted of only 12 clauses (accepting all previous EEC regulations, the Treaty of Rome, and the terms of entry), it was subject to some 300 hours of debate before becoming law.” ****** “Since the enactment of the ECA in 1972, EU law has been a major part of the UK’s constitutional and legal framework. EU law is currently incorporated into the UK’s legal system in a number of different ways. For example, the EU Treaties and EU Regulations are incorporated into domestic law by the ECA and are therefore directly applicable, whereas EU directives are largely given effect by statutory instruments under the ECA. They will need to be “saved” by the Great Repeal Bill. Repealing the ECA is necessary to change the status of EU law within the UK constitution. The Great Repeal Bill will need to replace the ECA with an equivalent framework that reflects the UK’s new relationship with EU law.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite, the dark depths of unionist Twitter doesn’t seem to plumb Kincardine’s views. The problem with that platform is that it tends to ban those who share his extreme positions before anyone can take them seriously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
git-intae-thum Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 The ultra Britnat view harking back to an Uber Britannia is tragic......but is also f@ckin hilarious. Just point and laugh. It's all they deserve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
