told you

[Zacs-Master]

She's said "We must and we will find another democratic, lawful and constitutional means by which the Scottish people can express their will.............."

Note the word 'lawful'. This is just another example of her delusion / blind ambition. She's said this just after being told that Westminster would legally need to give permission. It's like watching a stubborn goat banging it's head on an Oak tree, thinking it can move it.

[douglas9401]

If only she would acknowlege that it's not 'the Scottish people' but instead 'a few of the Scottish people' then she might sleep easier at night.

[Peter Pedant]

another democratic, lawful and constitutional means
yeah I clocked that
I thought it was that she would NOT declare UDI (*) for 'er nation'
and
that was a contrast to Trump ( vox pop as she is) who advocated all sorts of naughtiness to get what he wanted....

(*) UDI rhodesia 1965 and that .... yeah yeah I know 1000 ABers will whine in unison triumphantly - "what Rhodesia den", sortta kinda inevitable innit?

well she's not going to give a speech promising to do it unlawfully is she... but that's obviously on the cards

[davebro]

she's p1$$ing in the wind

[youngmafbog]

Quite Dave. Problem is she just wont shut up will she.

Let them go and lets have some peace - but no coming back.

[maggiebee]

Have noted that many of the English are drintling again today. As TTT would say PMSL - Tena to the fore.

[douglas9401]

I've learned a new word today, maggie, thanks. :-)

[perseverer]

Maggie - as a Scot, had to look up drintling - very appropriate - making a noise like turkeys.

As a Scot, I am not in favour of independence, but I am constantly amazed that people cannot grasp that a party whose raison d'être is largely indepndence might be trying everything they can to achieve it.

// I am constantly amazed that people cannot grasp that a party whose raison d'être is largely independence might be trying everything they can to achieve it.//

And I am constantly amazed that Scots who don't want independence repeatedly vote in large numbers for the party that does!

[perseverer]

Davebro - I don't vote SNP, but many who do, it is a dislike of the Tories, (although when Ruth Davidson was their leader in Scotland there was a bit of a resurgence) and to poor performance by a succession of Scottish Labour leaders, but with Anas Sarwar now doing better.

[youngmafbog]

//it is a dislike of the Tories,//

OK then explain why they dont vote labour?

[perseverer]

I thought I did.

[ToraToraTora]

perseverer: "As a Scot, I am not in favour of independence" - neither is the wee un, she just wants to prostrate herself at the foot of the EUSSR. She is basically driven by a pathological hatred of England. Which is odd because it is England that pays for Scotland.

[THECORBYLOON]

"She is basically driven by a pathological hatred of England."

You keep repeating that claim yet you have never been able to substantiate it with even a single example.

[naomi24]

Dave, the electorate don’t like Labour or the Conservatives so the SNP get in via the back door.

[Zacs-Master]

I'd say constantly wanting to leave us might be a reason, TCL.

[THECORBYLOON]

The UK is not only England.

[Deskdiary]

It's probably me, but she's coming over a bit Trump-like in not accepting the outcome.
