If Scotland goes independent and joins the EU, so no longer independent ironically, then they will trade with the UK under the same terms as the rest of the EU nations. Countries are not allowed independent trade deals so if tariffs exist between the EU and the UK then they will exist between Scotland and the UK.

You need to stop referring to England. The UK is a combination of countries. I know that suits the story but it is inaccurate and misleading.

The UK is two countries, once Scotland leaves England will be the only country left.

Timing is more to do with the Scottish Parliament dates and manifesto pledges.

The scared people are the ones trying to delay it.
2014....27% support.......go ahead by all means.
2017....46% support........oh haud on a moment that's no fair.

46%? So a minority then?

Bit harsh on Wales and N.Ireland. Not sure they will approve of your comments 😁

The Scots hate Wales more than England apparently...
Though you wouldn't guess it from 'wings' ...

I'm presuming you are trying to be cute, Wales being a principality for example. I give them a bit more respect. There are four countries in the UK and if one of them leaves then there will be three. The UK will carry on nicely.

Isn't all this a Sturgeon fantasy? I know the A50 thread has taken some stick but at least that is actually happening. As far as I am aware indyref2 isn't.

Good point.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Passes the time though 😁

it is a good point, lets all leave this thread until Wednesday when the Holyrood vote is done and dusted, see how that goes first. This thread has followed the other political threads into an accusatory sniping contest...."you hate..., no I don't, yes you do" pantomime as usual to the point of most of us dropping out of any reasonable debate.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Unless the SNP are spiteful to the Greens Wednesday is just a formality isn't it?

 

[SocketRocket]

You are just being silly now, not like you to have a smart answer.

Well, you started it!

Steady on, My mother is Welsh.
Always the best six nations event........we have one thing in common:lol:

Northern Ireland isn't a region, it's a province or statelet.

Of course it is...basic error.....sorry.

No.......lets just have a great game of open rugby and sod the result.

I don't know if your on a wind up or just lacking in social awareness. I'm Welsh and I can assure you that it is a country.

Looks like we don't even need the independence supporting Greens for this one.....59 votes swings it.

Beats combined Labour and Tory vote
