2019 Year Of Salvation

[rich47]

A guid New Year to all. Perhaps 2019 will be the year we dump brexit and all its fanciful follies and finally be rid of Trump. I live in hope.

Trump looks to be having second thoughts about his Syria pull-out

Some of you may not have noticed that the majority in Scotland voted by a significant margin to remain in the EU.
Democracy obviously does not apply with you guys when it comes to Scotland.
By the way the UK is not a nation, as is often repeated in these posts, it is a union.

Of which Scotland is a part and it was the UK that voted to leave the EU.

Scotland voted as part of the UK.


Tell me...what have polls during 2018 consistently pointed to re Scottish independence?

rich; "Some of you may not have noticed that the majority in Scotland voted by a significant margin to remain in the EU." - so did Islington high st, no doubt, but the vote was a UK wide one, not regional, not constituencies, councils, towns, countries etc
"Democracy obviously does not apply with you guys when it comes to Scotland." - it does, they have MPs, MEPs, MSP,s all elected democratically, they even had a referendum on whether to leave the UK in 2014.
"By the way the UK is not a nation, as is often repeated in these posts, it is a union. " - The UK is a nation state, look it up.

"gulliver1, how come you say the yanks deserve what they voted for yet you don't want what we voted for. A bit 2 faced if you ask me"

a phrase containg words like shot, yourself and foot, springs to mind..that or a total lack of political nous...probably both

[rich47]

poor tora, Scotland is not a "region" but a Nation joined by treaty in the UK. Look it up!!!!

Some may also remember that back in 2014 before the referendum Scotland was advised that the only way to guarantee staying in the EU was to vote to remain in the UK. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha what a trustworthy bunch.
