Hopefully the Euro

The Euro's strength would leave Scotland - like all the southern EU countries - shackled and unable to compete.

We should also join the Schengen zone as well to maximise free movement and efficiency.

iScotland is going to have to chose between Schengen and free movement with the rest of Britain. It won't be able to have both.

surprisingly Nicola was not entirely happy after her meeting with Theresa
It seems Theresa didn't say anything that wasn't in the public domain and didn't guarantee that Nicola would determine the UK brexit strategy nor did she guarantee Iscotland

Nicola Sturgeon says Brexit meeting was 'deeply frustrating'

quite a surprise really
but more importantly : are the polls showing 60% yet

Her interview outside No 10 after the event was great. This was interesting coming out in media circles at little later.

Faisal Islam ‏@faisalislam 32m32 minutes ago Understand Scottish Government looking at EFTA membership for Scotland as one "flexible Brexit" proposal to be put forward in coming weeks

Faisal Islam ‏@faisalislam 16m16 minutes ago... Perhaps biggest irony here - very influential Vote Leavers who want EFTA membership for whole UK. Scotland will prob suggest it first.

Michael Gray.@faisalislam beats me to it! I've heard the same. I consider this EFTA strategy in my column tomorrow

Michael Gray 44s45 seconds ago In last month @NicolaSturgeon & @AlexSalmond met with the Prime Minister & Foreign Minister of Iceland. Wonder if Efta membership came up...

Oh and there's been no polls since the Conservative Party Conference. For some reason...

Good of you to post links supporting your POV.
In response here's one supporting mine which I think you may enjoy:

NOT that I am a supporter of Ms Hopkins but here she does give a very insightful response.

the reason Nicola hasn't organised a poll is she knows the answer..........(and it isn't 60% for iscotland unfortunately)

Isn't the party conference for devotees of the party concerned. Personally I have no interest in any of them. Without the media hype they would pass relatively unnoticed.

Let's hope she isn't promising something that cannot be delivered. All bluster and no substance really. As outside of Scotland is anyone taking any serious notice of what she says now.

Thank you for the links.

Katie Hopkins is not one of my favourite journalists but she absolutely destroys Sturgeon and exposes her for the liar and charlatan she is.

Why would Westminster confide in a liar who is committed to the break up of the UK.
I am quite convinced that Sturgeon would leak any brexit term discussions to the EU Mandarins to get one over Westmnster.

I doubt that MI5/MI6 will allow the dissident that chance.

What "discussions" when there have been none....... The department is still being formed that will handle the talks. Words are easy to make. Putting plans into place takes a lot longer. With people being transferred around and replacements to find. Doubt the EU is bothered. As they'll have their own agenda. Ultimately it will be a question of compromise. If there's any to be had.

Well I think it,s niave to think discussions are not already being held.
