Scottish Independence Vote Shelved Until Autumn 2018

Actually, I don't think Scotland would be better off remaining a European Union member. It would be better off remaining within the European Economic Area, along with the rest of us.

Don't believe it. Trying to tell my elderly mother at the airport she'll be standing in 'that queue' in a few years time instead of just walking through - she doesn't understand why.

Even still Scotland (and for that matter I've very sure the UK) cannot afford the EU fees that Norway and the Swiss pay to trade with the EU.

If she voted for it serves her right.

Scotland would be better off remaining an EU member. Very few members of my own family talk about Brexit anymore, they are defeated and exhausted and yet know leaving the EU is going to screw them over. Feel sorry for them.

But it's too much for you to return and share their pain. Much better to whinge from afar...

Just blame the Bastard English Bastards. I'm sure she'll get the message...

So just whining then....

Better to have the 2nd referendum and get it over with, when the overwhelming NO vote will leave her without a leg to stand on. But not until after Brexit or she'll only claim there are grounds for another one once the details of the deal are finally known to be unpalatable to Scots.

It was the silver lining to the election cloud.

Can't they just take £350 million per week from the NHS and spend it on an EU single market access agreement?

You need to up your game sunshine.

Hard border with England would be tough from a trade perspective, even if Scotland remained in the Common Travel Area for movement of people.
