Sir Nigel Farage

[Ryler]

Scotland overwhelmingly voted to stay in the EU

Irrelevant and a tired old argument.
Scotland is part of the UK and always will be.

It still has not sunk in has it?
Remain lost.

 

[Ryler]

then you simply cannot deny them

And you think the eu won't deny them?

 

[Mottie]

when you ticked that box did you vote for the United Kingdom to be just England and Wales?

No. Just England.

 

[KenGMac]

still has not sunk in has it?

No not up here in the far frozen north with the oil coming ashore, all the fishing rights, all the renewable technology, the IT Gaming hub for the UK and at this time of year all the Whisky revenue?

 

[Ryler]

with the oil coming ashore,

Its a dwindling stock and well down in price.

 

[Ryler]

and at this time of year all the Whisky revenue?

If you go independent whiskey exports will dwindle as scots will be drinking it themselves when the scottish economy tanks.

There is no tired old argument Brexit is happening now which changes everything. The govt has already agreed on a future ref date, Scotland will insist they will have one ASAP to protect themselves from the inevitable financial fall out. It will happen

 

[Ryler]

The govt has already agreed on a future ref date

When is that?
Can you post a link?

 

[Ryler]

to protect themselves from the inevitable financial fall out. It will happen

What about the financial hit when Scotland loses the Barnett funding after independence?
At least it will mean extra finances available for Wales, England and NI.

 

[Ryler]

Scotland will insist they will have one ASAP

Only the snp will insist on rushing things.
Not Scotland.

Nigel campaigned for years to leave the EU.
What really tipped the balance in favour of independence was Blairs blatantly anti British action of opening the floodgates of uncontrolled immigration from Eastern Europe and beyond.
Blairs assertion that the white British population were too insular and needed to have their noses rubbed in multiculturalism annoyed a lot of people.

It was Nigel Farage who formed UKIP and shocked David Cameron on their success in the EU elections at the time and the large number of votes UKIP achieved in the 2015 election.
It was Nigel Farage who forced David Cameron to agree to the Brexit referendum.
It was Nigel Farage who resigned from UKIP when he saw it was going militant Left.
It was Nigel Farage who formed the Brexit Party and achieved record numbers of 'paid up supporters' with large levels of support from the working class regions of the north.
It was Nigel Farage who forced all parties to include immigration in their manifestos for discussion without being condemned as 'racist'.
It was Nigel Farage and his Brexit party who run away with the EU elections 2019
It was Nigel Farage who always declared 'Country before Party' and decided to not stand Brexit party candidates in Tory constituencies.
It was Nigel Farage who 'won' Brexit.

Arise Sir Nigel

There is not a single mention in that post of any benefit to leaving, only how farage helped it.

Which entirely sums up the brexit argument.
Brexiteers argue how brexit should be done and when. Brexiteers have no interest in why.

Show me any person who was decorated for their 'future' services to this country.

Scotland overwhelmingly voted to stay in the EU, if that means being given no option but to become independent from the UK to remain in the EU then you simply cannot deny them. Good luck when the wrath of the EU get involved! Will pan out nicely for the corporate carpet baggers to hoover up the most valued UK assets . Like taking candy from a baby!

Maybe you should start putting your assets (if you have any) into gold, before the rush! Oh and get a good supply of lube in too. ROFL

Afaik the snp got 45% of the vote?

About the same amount that voted for I dependence in there referendum?
