Population of England is almost 56 million. Population of Scotland is less than 10% of that. In what possible world do they think they have the right to be equal partners ?

[STEMO]

I don't know where this idea of England and Scotland being equal partners in the UK has come from?    Well I do....  The SNP obviously, to feed the sense of grievance with their supporters. 

I've also seen Joanna Cherry claim that indy Scotland would be an equal partner in the EU.    Poor deluded woman! 

Here is a list of countries in the world, Sir Tig, anyone missing?

Nearly forgot that link

Scotland is an autonomous region, and autonomous regions don't get to join the EU. Ask Spain.

Too right Uncle STEMO! 

I don't believe the rhetoric that BREXIT makes Scottish independence more likely either.  Quite the opposite in fact. 

If they have a vote for independence while we're still in the EU, then they'll think that Brussels are likely to let them stay in as a continuing member in their own right.

However, if they have the vote for independence after the UK has left the EU then they will have to apply to join the EU like any other country like Albania or Macedonia.... 

Can't see the canny Scots voting for that, no matter how noisy the ScotNats are on facebook!

Project fear lies, or archetypal left wing economic illiteracy ? You decide.

Government ministers need to tread carefully when 'giving the impression' that the judges are bent.

He probably voiced the thoughts of many, but as a minister he should be more responsible. He knew his comments would inflame some people.

It's strange......shouty Farage and his ilk were always banging on that laws should be made in Westminster not Brussels. That we should take back control with our own 'elected representatives' in parliament. This is broadly what is now happening.

We are not yet a banana republic with a dictator but as Boris is dismissive of parliament we could be heading that way.

Boris Johnson needs to be accountable.

This is true, but the way every clunge and their dog was trying to pervert the whole process to their own amusement somebody had to do something to halt the chaos. Fair play to him for taking that step.

Timetable as I see it...

Mid October sees parliament reconvene.
31st sees us leave the EU.
Mid November sees a general election which will clear the decks of all the gravy train scum and whomever ends up in charge gets to lead the country forward.

31st of January, maybe.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

We voted to leave, so should leave.

Our 'elected representatives' will not agree to no deal.

We know the people voted to leave (albeit 3 years and 3 months ago) but we do not know if there is a majority in the country for a no deal brexit.....or even any brexit

It could be the will of parliament regarding 'no deal'  is in line with the country as a whole. We just don't know.

My brain hurts.
