And they seem blind to him being the biggest asset the Scottish independence movement has. Maybe they secretly desire to live in an independent Scotland. Boris Johnson is making people look away from Nicola Sturgeon and Ian Blackford, to think being separated from Westminster might not be a bad thing.

In England core Tory supporters are turning on them, that isn't happening with the SNP up here. Both parties' enemies still don't like them of course, it's inevitable that you think the SNP are doing badly, but their support seems to be holding strong.

Unfortunately James it's been 6 (SIX) years of half measures and it'll likely be another 6 years of half measures as the architects of Brexit and their supporters had no idea what they wanted or indeed any concept of the implications of going through with it.

SectionDJambo Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Personally, I don't think we should be having another independence already, but I can understand why some think that there is some justification for it, mainly because of the broken promise of remaining within the EU being only certain by staying in the Union. One thing, I feel, is absolutely certain. If the Brexit vote had gone the other way, Farage and his pals would not have stopped pushing for another referendum to take place quickly. They would never have accepted a Remain result as gracefully as they think the "Remoaners" should have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are suggesting that 1.3 million (approx) Scots voted for Brexit because they wanted to keep out brown faces. By that logic, you are suggesting that 1.3 million Scots are racist. I disagree. Although I don't like result, and think we shouldn't have had vote, i don't believe racism was at heart of it. I think electorate in some parts had simply had enough of government telling them what was right and they basically told them to **** off.

Cade Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 After a week or so of grandstanding speeches, dire warnings, bluff, bluster and threats of legal action, the Government has withdrawn all action against P&O Ferries. There's this thing called "international maritime law" that kept getting in the way. P&O knew what they did was legal. They knew they'd get away with it. The Government knew what they did was legal. They had failed to close the loopholes that allowed it. So that's the precedent set. Goodbye to the entire UK merchant navy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
