Oh dear, the Nats are trying to convince the rest of the UK that Scotland is isn't part of the UK anymore. I do feel for for the 55%.

Not Yorkshire. Yorkshire isn't a country.

That's not necessarily what the people of Yorkshire think.

But we're happy to go along with the democratic wishes of everyone else in the UK. We don't think we're a different race requiring special treatment.

Nicola was just on the Marr show (again). They didn't ask anyone from Wales, N. Ireland. Or Yorkshire. Or the West Country. Or the Midlands. But they thought it important for someone from Scotland to put forward the views of a small number of people living in the far North of the UK.

Just crazy.

Crazy to you perhaps. Not to me.

Scotland may be a small country but a country nonetheless.

The BBC and Andrew Marr obviously think she is important enough and has enough appeal to viewers for them to tune in and hear her views. You obviously did

Once again this is being mistaken as some kind of racial issue. Surely you've read this thread long enough to see that it's not. It's about where people feel power best lies. Those who voted Yes obviously wanted Scotland to have full control. That's. It. In. A. Nutshell.

Make your mind up. Is it is or isn't? Can't have it both ways....

Can't have your cake and eat it so we are endlessly told.

And of course, you think the people of Yorkshire are second class citizens compared to the pure bread scots.

Ok, I was patient with you yesterday but I'm not playing anymore.

Seems a perfectly reasonable statement to me. It's not really a matter of opinion, it's a matter of international law. Scotland is not a state. Montevideo convention and all that.

And yet you're happy to accept without question any laws coming from the EU.

How curious.

Where did I say that?

How curious you should assume my views and opinions.

Accusing me of racism isn't reasonable.

Is or isn't Scotland a country?

The SNP loves the idea of being subjected to EU law.

I assumed you supported the SNP position.
