Minky Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 There is a minor issue that EVERYONE is overlooking. It doesn't matter what anyone on here thinks or whether there is or isn't a referendum AND whatever a result. Scotland won't be joining the EU BECAUSE firstly the EU hasn't got spare cash to supply another lame duck country AND SPAIN would veto it because they have a similar situation with the Basque region. The Basques have been involved in a violent struggle with Spain for years. This is all common knowledge so why kranky and the fat fellow keep pushing this agenda is a mystery. They recon that the Ukraine application would take many years so how would Scotland fair.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoke and mirrors, if they don't bang on about wanting freedom they might have to answer questions about why things aren't working in Scotland.

Minky Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 Aren't they.? Being right down the bottom here I wouldn't know. Having tried to check a physio appointment today and trying to contact British gas as to why I'm being charged one rate instead of two e7 rates and having not a lot of success with either ain't exactly good. Plod don't exist. Try contacting your local council. Still I'm getting stronger and hopefully I'll soon be out shooting again and able to burn off some of the lorry load of cartridges that I've loaded. Probably start snowing and I'll skid over and trash my leg again. I'll have to get the OH to act as my gun bearer and General proper up. That will be a task and I'm sure that she won't do retrieval.

sam triple Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 You could see from the public mourning from the queens death that Sturgen hasn’t a chance in succeeding, just the same old P and wind from her as she’s nothing left to offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About time these politicians from both sides where put in a room and given a good kicking and told to deal with the proper problems not feeding there own ego or lobbying for the own financial greed! about time that we stopped inspecting schools and started inspecting politicians- now that would be an interesting ofstead inspection.

We only have two fishery protection vessels to cover the whole country and all the rogue trawlers know exactly where they are at any given time because they all have radios and mobile phones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spain has been fighting almost a guerrilla war in the Basque region for decades. The slight advantage of some possible fishing deal is about 0.0001% as opposed to accepting in to the EU a lame duck country that would need LOTS of millions of €s to keep it afloat. That fat fellow would absorb an awful lot of pies to keep him sweet. I never realised that most of Scotland's employed work for the government in some sort of job and the ones that have never worked as their father's and their father's afore them are divyed out on the social anyway. I'm afraid that we are lubered irregardless. IF the Spanish trawlers are up there fishing already ( I wouldn't have a clue what they do) what's there to gain.

I have a shooting friend who has moved up to Scotland because she is a bit weird and she wants to be isolating and up in the wildness. I told her to balance that against the rain, the cold, the short days and the fact that she can't understand a word that the locals are saying. Miñd she is a total lunatic even though she is a good shot. Edited October 18, 2022 by Minky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
