Lipsy I'm no Economist but what currency do you think Scotland will have and what about the financial support required to back it? I can't see Alfies Mum allowing them to keep the pound
I wouldn't have thought it was much fun you watching it judging by the amount of moaning you've done in this thread.
I quite like whiskey - you'd all be very welcome.Here's a lovely video of May-bot, irony turned up to 11:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4EZgngIdmA
No it doesn't. She is saying is that it will be best for the Scots to know what deal the UK can reach before they make a decision on independence.
So what you're saying is the UK should see what deal we get from leaving the EU, and if it's crap we should hold another referendum?
So if you think that we should also have a referendum once we find out the deal we will get from the EU, Theresa May can't be so wrong by insisting that Scotland does the same?
The two scenarios are different though. England voted to leave, and got it's wish. Scotland voted to remain, and didn't get it's wish!
So you're saying the very same information wasn't of significant influence in the EU referendum? And why is she happy to accept our uninformed decision buit not apply that equally?

Tariffs: how do they work? Excuse me for being a bit thick over this,but if we have to pay a Tarriff on goods exported to the Eu and the Eu has to pay a Tarriff on stuff they export to us,how can this be a bad thing for the UK?I can't produce the exact figures but we import 25% more than we export.

You mean what is left of Britain's meagre gold reserves after the very pro EU new labour sold loads off very cheaply?Should I be surprised that an expert on every eventual outcome of international trade negotiations such as you forgot to mention that Jockland would also be entitled to their share of Britain's debt,a debt that would wipe out all Scots public services,thats before the convergence criteria for joining the Euro would,but hey pander to virulent nationalism of the SNP variety,well the Brussels National Party,or henceforth known as the BNP
Right Glynn thanks for that, so we buy our lamb and butter from New Zealand again and Lamb goes back to being the cheapest meat, we buy our beef from our new bestie buddies the Argies and hey presto iit is half the price what we pay now.
What Scotland has to realise, is if they vote to leave the union then come running back cap in hand a broke Country they will not get back what they had, the rest of the UK will surely play hardball with them
