Not talking about global warming? That's weird, I could've sworn you said Quote: How's your argument against global warming going? :wink: in a thread about Scottish Independence. Dry your eyes, Bobby, watch me give a fig about any of it. You are wasting your breath, seriously. |

Dry your eyes, Bobby, watch me give a fig about any of it. You are wasting your breath, seriously. The point was not that it was about global warming, but that you have the nerve to accuse someone else of cherry picking facts when that is all you ever do. The global warming was simply an easy example, of many. You do nothing but cherry pick, you ignore reasoned argument, fair enough but to accuse someone else of it is beyond the pale. Furthermore, it appears you are a boorish twat to boot. 'dry your eyes'? Grow the fuck up. |

Watching the Grauniad feed of the First Minister's speech. Nicola Sturgeon calling for 'INDYREF2: the empire strikes back' at the end of the Brexit process. Which gives her plenty of wriggle room, and puts the UK government in a tricky corner about granting the vote. |

Going to have to listen to this later. Latest quote from the 'Guardian' is: Sturgeon denies wanting to fight ‘fact-free’ referendum campaign. from fact-free referendum campaign wrote: 'we give the English, Welsh, and Northern Irish £350m a week. Let's spend it on Buckfast instead'. Giphy "scottish independence": http://media1.giphy.com/media/jDbC8wdWbUcRa/giphy-loop.mp4 |

Oh man, I don't think I can stand another 2 years of non-stop whinging and fact-free propaganda. Can you imagine the mess they'd be in economically if had voted for independence, knowing what we know now - and were reliant on the SNP to actually, like, govern the country in all respects? I pity the people who live there and have to endure it all, every day. |

With all that is going on, I'd say they should go. No point hanging around this shambles, if they think they could make a better fist of it. Good luck to them. I'd vote for them to go. |

Unlike last time, I'm not even sure there's a clear, all-encompassing leadership team for any putative 'Stay' campaign. Ruth Davidson's feisty and great, but comes with the baggage of being a Tory. Labour are more or less dead, and afraid to share a stage with other parties lest they get accuses of being 'Red Tory scum'. A straight re-run of the economic doom approach won't work this time round, the UK having decided to trash the economy anyway. And on the critical emotional level, well, if you lived in Scotland, it's hard to be very encouraged by a future within the Union as things currently stand. We've come a long, depressing way since the 2012 Olympics. |

I'd Rather the UK stay as one, but if the following all happen, there is part of me that would quite like it for selfish reasons: 1) The UK leaves the single market and we don't have access to unrestricted movement around Europe 2) Scotland leaves the UK but joins/remains in the EU 3) People with a Scottish parent/grand parent are allowed Scottish Passports 4) I can actually get dual passports for myself and my kids (and my wife?) |

Just occurred to me that both Nicola Sturgeon and Theresa May are acting from positions of weakness within their parties. Mrs May has to appear to be going for the hardest possible Brexit to appease the Tory right who would otherwise depose her if she showed signs of wanting a closer relationship with the EU. Similarly, Nicola Sturgeon needs to appear ready for another fight to appeal to the mass of independence supporters who flooded to the party after 2014 whilst they are still in government. Neither really faces a decent opposition from Labour so they can't use that threat to keep their party's extremists in line. Both are heading down lines they probably don't really want to be on in order to hold onto the leadership. |

Last I looked, Stu's latest fundraiser was at over £120,000(!) Say what you like about the (IMO absurd) stuff he spouts, but by crikey, he knows his audience and the whole boiling's paying very, very nicely indeed. The £2-a-month debacle seems like a very, very long time ago now, I bet. To be fair and in the interests of accuracy, though, surely it would be better to say "Bath's own mini-Milo"? |

Some Lords have published a Bill to do a hard reset and reboot of the UK, with a series of referendums in each part confirming the Union, one on the House of Lords, and, for England, a vote on whether for a single English parliament or a set of regional ones. Westminster would be left with just a core set of functions. Essentially, it would create a federation. It's got no chance of becoming law, of course, but it's an interesting idea, in particular the statement of the aim of the Union set out in the first clause, and a list of the primary purposes that all would have to have 'due regard to' in the second section: Quote: The purpose of the United Kingdom is to provide a strong and effective union between the peoples of the constituent nations and parts.
... The following are the principal purposes of the United Kingdom: 1. The rule of law and equality before the law. 2. The protection of fundamental rights and freedoms. 3. Defence of the realm and the conduct of foreign relations. 4. The promotion of tolerance and respect. 5. Equality of opportunity. 6. Provision of a safe and secure society. 7. Provision of a strong economy. 8. Protection of social and economic rights, including provision of access to education and health and other social services (including the National Health Service). 9. Benefiting from shared history and culture. |

He's allegedly supposed to be up in court today; is that not massively unusually fast to be in court the same day you're arrested? I find it especially odd that no one seems to know what he's been arrested for given how quickly it's moving. |
