Scotland might have better finances if the new Shetlands oil field comes online in 2019, but with the low oil price, it may not make a great deal of difference. Spain on the other hand, may be looking at Gibralter as a source of finance if it loses the handouts after we go. Gibralter turned itself into a bit of a tax haven when it lost the revenue from our navel bases, so is now self sufficient.

The Quitters have been spreading rumours that Spain would veto an independent Scotland joining the EU

Sorry John, it wan't a rumour. Spain has issues with it's Basque region, so couldn't support Scotland breaking away from the UK, without appearing hypocritical. Todays change of attitude by the Spanish government to now support an independant Scotland, is therefore a bit of a surprise, but doesn't actually prove that they would then support Scotland entry to the EU when the final vote comes in.
 
show me your source of these rumours that Spain would veto an independent Scotland.
 
You said you wouldn't post in here again and you have.

You said you wouldn't post in the electrical forum unless winston apologised. He didn't and you do.
Actually, I didn't say that.

So either lied or your word is worth nothing. I would go with nothing in your case.
I'm sure you would.

But that would be because your brain doesn't work properly.
 
But you could have checked yourself couldn't you.

No, I have no way of knowing what rumours you've heard.

"it has been believed Spain would block..."

"Ruairi Quinn, an Irish politician, said the secessionist movements in both countries meant it was "highly probable"

And does this Irish politician speak on behalf of the Spanish government's foreign policy?

The word "rumour" is entirely accurate.
 
Very worrying that lunatic Brexiteers think that Brexit gives the opportunity for a war between dUK and Spain.
I wish there would be.

I wish we would declare war on, and invade, Spain, France, Germany....

Within a few months at most we would be back in the EU.
 
You see John, this is the problem with trying to discuss things with you. You always want sources so that you can search through them for the bits that allow you to refute them. No matter what is given to you, you will always twist it to suit your purposes.

it has been believed Spain would block..."
This has always been the general supposition of how Spain would vote, and that's all. It's only a rumour to you, because that's how you wish to portray it; for eveyone else, it's a perception of how things would be, and perception isn't a rumour I'm afraid.

Blokes a fruit cake & a habitual liar, invents fake stories and claims it is news, particularly the immigrants and refugees.

Total disgrace imho.
