last try valenciasman, by 55% to 45% Scotland voted to stay in the UK, amongst other reason to ensure we stayed in the EU. Also in the recent referendum by 62% to 38% Scotland voted to stay in the EU unlike England, resulting in a UK decision by 52% to 48% to exit the EU.
The point is although some might consider Scotland to be a junior partner it is a country in its own right (not just technically) with different values than England (one more panda in Edinburgh zoo than there are Scottish based tory MPs in Westminster), so why should Scotland allow England to drag us out of the EU and down the same economic plughole that Davis, Johnson and Fox will undoubtedly take us ?

Because at the moment Scotland is part of the UK that voted to come out of the EU. What are you trying to convince me about? You know? the facts, thats it. The UK voted to come out the EU based on lies, why don't we have another vote on that. What official referendum did Scotland vote to come out the EU? Do you mean a survey
Personally I dont think anyone in Scotland should consider leaving, the EU say go to the back of the queue, what will happen to money, what exports do Scotland have?

It's pointless being in a partnership where one party wants to leave and the other won't let it. That's where resentment and bitterness begin. If Scotland has another referendum and votes out, then it's better to split amicably on friendly terms.

Sorry I give up. I think I might have a large one of Scotland's exports with a splash of water and go to bed.
