I think the Brexit severance with the EU should be OK. There's been a bit of posturing from the Brussels elite, but they are on trial at the moment as Euro-scepticism is a rising problem in many countries.
On Scotland mentioned briefly in passing. The nationalists are just playing the politics of division. The SNP's "compromise" was a pipe dream and their reasons for holding indyref2 are contrived. They are just out to complicate and make it all difficult, because they have no other agenda but that. A good deal on Brexit would make them look like fools.

The EU will not last forever, why are some Scots so desperate to remain in it?
By the time Brexit happens and Scotland gets its referendum the EU will be weaker... they will be desperate to join a club that other nations will be desperate to leave.

The rest of the EU will see it unfold and if their citizens have any sense they will get the hell out.

Scotland got a vote?
Wales had a vote?
Ireland had a vote?
England had a vote?
ALL four countries had a vote in the referendum 51.9% voted to leave
As for keeping the £ that is UK currency you cant cherry pick the bits you want
You may have to restore the 'unicorn', the 'groat' or the 'merk'.

over 60% voted to stay in europe in Scotland. one of the main selling points of the remain camp at the scottish referendum was that Scotland's only chance to remain in the EU wa to vote to stay part of the UK..Another lie..
As for the Pound, i dont really care if we use it or not, considering it's on it's arse.. i would prefer the Euro though. There is nothing stopping Scotland from using the pound if we so wish. That's the beauty of the game..any country can use whatever currency it chooses.
If you think the £ is 'on its arse' the value of the euro has more than halved,
and they have made countries keep voting to join the euro till they eventually
get the answer they want ..... dictatorship!! The best thing the UK did was to
keep the £ the euro ruined Greece, with Italy and Portugal not far behind.
Please someone mention a hard border and trade between Scotland and England....please. 80 miles of land and limpet mines is not hard enough as far as i'm conerned. Keep Englands sticky fingers from Scotlands wealth.

It's a big world out there, the EU is just a fraction of it.. To me the idiot is the one who locks himself into a trade deal with just that small part of the world.

Nothing lasts forever. The EU being a modern concept as it stands just now, why wouldn't anyone, never mind Scotland wish to break apart from a 600 million peoples trade structure?...The real question should be, why would anyone other than a idiot leave it.?
The only nation desperate to join some other club at the end of the day will be England...feel free to fill us all in on your Brexit plan? Feel free to fill us all in on how leaving the European union will change your life for the better....as i suspect....you got nothing, nada, zilch...Nothing but wishful thinking that this is the end of the EU.
The tories made a election promise that they thought they would never ever have to fulfill. hence the reason they dont know what the # they are doing. They actually thought that the people would see through the racist bull# pushed by the daily mail the Sun and the msm, farage johnson etc etc...well here's the kicker. They underestimated the dumbing down of society. .Politicians are so far removed from the people?...well no #ing wonder.
Over half the population appears to be as thick as #. but dont worry...rule britannia a stiff upper lip old bean, the dunkirk spirit and all that..bollocks. Once again the people of England votes for # and 3 other countries have to live with Englands choice...go # yourself.

On a plus side, there was an Italian Journalist on the News last night saying that Britain are gonna be delt a rough hand for wanting to leave the EU
and that Scotland would be given a warm welcome if it became independent and wanted to become an EU Member. I believe she said it would be easy for Scotland to retain membership...
