Fuck all good news, so here’s some opinion. Unionists will dismiss the polling company, but me - an ex-cybernet - dismisses the NI fudge. I’d rather see control of a referendum tied to an election result or Scottish MPs get a vote with which rUK MPs don’t get to overturn. It is interesting that Kezia even comes round to these ideas though, I do wonder given another 5 years where she will be
Yeah, they’ll keep harping on about “once in a generation” as if multiple loads of crap hadn’t hit the fan. Brexit of course being the big one, but Labour following up the Tories with more austerity and generally conservative governance also won’t help.
The upcoming (Scottish) election cycle will probably matter a lot for indy and seeing how Scotland reacts to Labour. The SNP did get hit by a lot of scandals so things might get shaken up a bit. I wonder how many will put another referendum as one of their main points.
The need to unshackle ourselves from brexit britain isn’t going anywhere, I suspect cosying up to Trump isn’t going to help the UK either. Calls to rejoin the EU are only growing louder
Scotland should have that option
The “once in a generation” argument was always bullshit but over time it’s just got more and more ridiculous. If we had an independence referendum today people who were five years old in the last one could now vote. How could any sane person consider that the same generation?
