For the hard of thinking Natz among us, an explanation of why their great victory on 12th December is just another defeat for the SNP.

 

Literally no matter what happened you would claim it's a failure for the SNP though to be fair.

It wasn't the will of slightly more Scottish people, over 5 years ago (longer than the time between general elections).

 

How do you know what the will is now? Have you held.... a referendum? 

Latest survey 2 weeks ago

56% against Indy ref 

too bad No happening

Ah right. What date did the referendum become invalid?

 Same would be said here for any other party. And it is. Ad Nauseum.

 

Nice to have some balance.

I suspect Johnson will say the UK Government will allow a referendum if there is a pro-referendum majority after the 2021 Scottish election. If that is the case, could the Scottish Government dissolve parliament for an early election?

That's not the latest survey. Here's one from last week

https://www.thenational.scot/news/18087994.scotland-back-post-brexit-independence-new-poll-reveals/

 

"The poll of 1020 voters in Scotland between December 3 and 6 found 51%, would back independence if the UK leaves the EU, while 49% would vote against it."

Of course it does. We were lied to, the result of the last referendum is invalid. Politicians should not be allowed to say any old crap to win a vote and then do the opposite once they've got the result they wanted.

Who was lied to?

 

Nobody really gave a shit about remaining in the EU at the Independence referendum. People were voting for Scotland to be Independent or remain in the U.K

 

Sturgeon used Brexit as an excuse to get another referendum. She's an opportunist who will not stop beating her Independence drum.

 

It's ALL she cares about

All of us were lied to and 62% of us gave a shit about staying in the EU.

Not should Scotland be an Independent Country within the EU ?

The national is just reporting the result of a panelbase survey, which tories were happy to give credence to in the run up to the election.

There isn't a constitution in the UK. 

 

Ok.- in that case explain why constitutional matters aren't devolved matters to Holyrood and a Section 30 order is required for the nationalists to hold a legally binding referendum?

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proposed_second_Scottish_independence_referendum

 

I really don't see where the SNP could go with this as any legal challenge looks pointless.  Notably I think Sturgeon knows this as I haven't heard her talk about it.

We have had three referendums this decade. 

The PR one in 2011.

The Scottish Independence in 2014.

The European Union on in 2016.

 

Why do you feel you have a right to overturn any of them?

 

Because we live in a democracy, people can change their minds, and people who couldn't vote on those previous ones can now. 

 

It is not more democratic to have one single vote, the result of which is binding forever. 

 

It's why we have a general election every 5 years or less.

The Tories had another vote recently because they didn't like result of the last general election. Why is it OK for them but not for Scotland?

But the No side heavily campaigned on remaining in the union being the way to guarantee Scotland kept its place in the EU. A year later England voted to take us all out.

Didn't say that on the options on my ballot paper.

 

One question

 

Should Scotland be an Independent Country ?

 

The choice was Yes or No to that question wasn't it ?

 

An isolated question

 

It wasn't a General Election vote

Why is The Sturge wanting to be Independent but still be part of a Union ?

 

How does that work ? Just choose a Union you want to be part of and claim your Independent because you have broken away from another Union you don't like ?

The Torys won’t be wanting another vote up here for a long long time. 
 

They were FIVE-ONED. 

 

Most pleasing.

Keep saying that and maybe you might convince yourself.

 

There isn't going to be another Indy Ref this coming parliament.  Tories hold all the cards and have said categorically no before, during, and now after the election.

 

Its not happening, mate. 👌

The majority they needed to deliver the democratic vote of Brexit without any stumbling blocks like Corbyn put up.

 

If Brexit had been rejected, Cameron would still be in until next May and if Corbyn was still leader of the opposition probably in until 2025 !

There was a democractic vote that did not give the Tories the majority they needed - in fact there were two of them. They gave themselves three chances to get the majority they needed. THREE.

 

SNP only get one through and that's the only one they are ever allowed, despite a massive change in circumstances from the last time and more time passed than between the maximum for general elections. Aye, sound.

Sturgeland would be powerless in the EU compared to the UK as a whole. And the goal of the EU is a federal Europe and ever closer community. That chart, if accurate, is only going one way.

The vote was for the UK to leave the EU

 

That is what the government were told to do by a majority of people living in the UK

 

Not their fault they have arseholes like Corbyn to contend with. There was no other option to have a GE to get rid of him once and for all.

People moan about politicians not engaging in sensible debate and instead having slagging matches, posters in here not doing any better.

 

Instead of all the petty insults on both sides can you not just articulate your point and answer questions directly?

 

Also, “Sturgeland” ?!? **** me that’s bad 😂
