@@donmacleod.7080 At the moment the polls suggest otherwise, a majority wanted to remain in the EU and that could've been the deal breaker

[@danielmacpherson8487]

@@joemorton9200 There's also the fact that the 2014 vote may not be totally legitimate, not in that it was rigged or votes weren't counted but. there was initially supposed to be 3 options, Stay in the UK, Leave, or Stay with more autonomy. the Tories thinking the referendum wouldn't matter just made it the first 2, but because the polls were split 50/50 a few days before the actual vote, the tories said that stay would come with those increased powers, this confused a lot of voters and MAY have lead to a lot more support for no. there's also the fact that the last one was 8 years ago and it's a very different place today. there's many thousands of people like myself that were too young to vote in 2014 (I was 13 at the time, voting age is 16 here) and many older people that did vote in 2014 that aren't alive anymore, interestingly, the old are overwhemlingly in favour of staying, and the young the opposite, couple that with the EU thing which yes was quite unpopular here. and it's not at all crazy to believe we'd leave. The Tory government of the past 12 years has been a complete embarrasment to the nation on the internal and international stage and Scots as much as anyone are fucking sick of it, most people want to leave not to not be in the UK, but to be free from the twats in Westminster. whatever we do I hope we do it soon cause as much as I think independce is important for us moving forward and the SNP are the only route to that. I am generally pretty disgusted with them as a party and want them gone ASAP.

[@boozy8659]

@@danielmacpherson8487 If the people want it they should get it but I’m not so sure now is the best time. The financial proposals look like they are up in the air which would be sorely felt at the moment. Also it’s not like you can just leave and join the EU, there’s a transition period (lasting a good couple of years if not more) which given the state of the world right now would be agony. I reckon it’s almost guaranteed, I just hope you can strangle a good enough deal out of Westminster when the time is right. Alternatively, England leaves and ditches you with Wales (and Liverpool) bish bash bosh, sorted.

it pays to be careful what you wish for, especially now that brexit is turning into a beaurocratic and financial nightmare - voting for brexit was a disaster mainly by people who had no idea what they were voting for and therefore deciding the scottish fate at the same time so there is small wonder that the scots are waiting for a referendum to be done very presently in order to save them from the uk fate of voting for stuff the voters there had no idea would bring a lot of tradeloss and unemployment, presently still masked by corona fallout, and at the same time the idiots who voted for brexit also had no idea of the accessory damage that would be caused to exchange and travel restrictions within the eu and right of stay. in short, the most important trading partner was voted out and the uk plus scotland voted a third world country tradewise, with all the great problems this entails - mainly loss of trade and travel. you can t do something more stupid and dangerous to livelihoods all over the uk, than this

[@shughume]

@@Nathan-yk5km I think for a lot of Scots, independence isn't about being all on our own. It's about having our parliament represent us to it's fullest extent. A large amount of Scots feel "left out" by Westminster. But we are also, en masse, pro Europe. A lot of rural Scotland benefits from EU grants and projects, and we have a large European immigrant population which works hard and brings their ethics and culture along with them. An Independent Scotland that is part of the EU would mean that local issues are wholly settled by the Scottish Government, which we vote for, and we would still be part of the free trade, movement and cooperation that the EU provides. The idea that we are held ransom by Brussels (or indeed the Bundestag as someone else said) I think is a gross exaggeration, perhaps fuelled by anti-Europe sentiment. For a lot of Scottish people, being part of Europe and sharing in culture, experience and humanity is a desperately important thing, more so than being part of the UK. Both referenda I think are proof of that. Hence the call for a 2nd independence referendum. These, by the way, are not necessarily my views, but more of a summary of what I think I see from my fellow countrymen on a daily basis. It's fair to say, that the promise that David Cameron made to the people of Scotland in 2014; our only way to maintain our EU membership was to remain as part of the UK (at that point the EU basically said Scotland being a member as an independent country was nigh on impossible) and then his referendum on the subject which is now seemingly going to strip the people of Scotland of that promise, has left a lot of Scottish people feeling betrayed and abandoned. And I think correctly so. As it stands, I'm anti-indepenence at the moment, as I was in 2014, but I'm sat on an exceptionally thin knife edge on the subject.

The whole project is controlled by unelected eurocrats in Brussels, slapping regulation after regulation on countries with little regard what effect it will have on them, and you can ask Greece, Spain and other poorer countries what a mess the EU have been.

Personally I can no longer find any justification or see any benefit in living under the control of an expensively educated, and over privileged elite band of idiots.

A group of charlatans that constantly repeat factoids that are eagerly amplified in the press and media, until they are mistakenly accepted as fact. Scotland leaving the UK can only serve as a source of motivation to the Indy curious people of Wales. The Yes movement in Wales has grown to such an extent over the last few years, that the same question once asked of Scotland are now being asked of Wales. Not if Wales will leave the UK, but when will Wales leave the UK? Weep for poor England. No seriously, weep for poor England. There's a disaster capitalist storm coming England's way. Her public services such as the NHS, and her assets are soon to be colonized and controlled by the USA.

They offered to proclaim an independent pro-German invasion of Scotland in the event of a Nazi invasion of England. In return, they asked that Germany stop bombing Scotland and give captured Scottish conscripts special treatment." The article goes on to describe in detail what was going on and finishes with the wry comment that "The files do not make clear if the contacts were ever followed up.", but mentions that MI5 "was already investigating the Scottish nationalists."

@@legandrydirk I fail to see what today's calls for a referendum have to do with a broadsheet newspaper report of twenty years ago but passing that irrelevance by, the next paragraph states: "The proposals were made via the German legation in Dublin and came in the middle of a campaign by Winston Churchill to force the Irish government to stop the Germans using the legation as a centre for espionage and subversion." Mention is made of the unease of the German minister in Dublin, Edward Hempel, that an alliance with Scottish nationalists might give the British an excuse to have him expelled told Berlin that he "obviously could not have anything to do with the business in any shape or form." And there is more, but I think that anyone with a less prejudiced and closed mind will have already got the gist of what was deciphered by British code-breakers between 1940 and 1943 in messages sent to Berlin. It was the view of the Intelligence services that passed the information to government that "though individual members are mischievous and potentially dangerous, the organisation, (which called itself "The Scottish Independence Movement") albeit full of sound and fury, is of little consequence." No doubt the Public Record Office can verify all of this if fact and history matter to an informed brain.

With the oil price low and the Barnett formula no longer payable from England, how will the Scottish economy survive???????? Free prescriptions, free university education? I don't really think so Nicola !!!!!

[@josephmiller3731]

And how do you think England would survive without our oil,our gas our fishing industry,you ignorant people think you subsidise Scotland you don’t,Scotland contributes more to the economy per head of population than any other country in the uk,if you are fed up with subsidising us then ask for a vote in England to see if they want rid of us.

[@josephmiller3731]

smile 2192 You need to get your facts right but then again entitled people don’t like facts that go against their agenda,you keep believing what you want but if we are such a burden to you poor people why not get rid of us and see what happens,it will not happen because your Tory gov knows it needs Scotland’s resources to survive,as I said look at the facts and how much Britain’s economy relies on oil and gas revenue which belongs to Scotland.

Joseph Miller oil and gas are running out haven’t you heard we are going all Electric to save the planet .coal will not be used .

@smile 2192 Curious... why do so many people think the SNP would automatically be in charge of an independent Scotland... do you really think we wouldn't have our own elections?

[@noodlyappendage6729]

Samur/Aye Try getting rid of the freebies once they’re already there. Near on impossible. The people won’t vote to get rid of their free stuff. The SNP will be in power from day one in an independent Scotland and you’ll see how completed fucked Scotland will become.

Scots: "We want to get out of the United Kingdom, because we're a minority in the Union, and we feel our voices is not being heard. We want to join the even bigger European Union, where we'll be an even smaller minority, and where our voice will count even less." Me: Okeeeee.
