The Sturgeon May Photo Opp - Spot The Difference



The same meeting, the same people; can you spot the difference?

Yes, that's right, Sturgeon is orange in the first one.

How is it the Daily Mail missed that???

Scottish Independence To Set Economy Back 10 Years


Scotland's economy would take up to 10 years to recover if the country became independent, according to the SNP's top economic adviser Andrew Wilson (who heads up the Growth Commission set up by Nicola Sturgeon to examine an independent Scotland's economic prospects).

This therefore begs the question why on earth does Sturgeon want independence?

Maybe she feels it is better for her to be a large fish in a very small pond (leading a Scotland that is out of the UK, out of the EU and out of NATO), rather than a small fish in a large one?

Question: When is "once in a generation" only little more than two years?

Answer: When it relates to a referendum result that doesn't suit Nicola Sturgeon!

Corbyn Denies Supporting Scottish Referendum


Now that Sturgeon is reportedly going to give Theresa May an ultimatum wrt Brexit and Scottish Independence, Corbyn now claims that he doesn't support a second Scottish referendum.

All of which is entirely irrelevant, as May will veto any referendum during Brexit.

Labour Loses Touch With Reality



Does Labour really think that the EU would allow a second Brexit negotiation, if the initial agreement is rejected by the referendum?

On what planet does Labour reside?

Schaeuble "Europe is Not in a Good State"


As per Open Europe:
"Europe is not in a good state,” said German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble at the Economic Council of his CDU party in Berlin on Tuesday. 

Referring to declining trust in the EU and the rise of anti-EU and right-wing parties across the bloc, he said, “We just cannot go on like this”.
He is right. However, the question is who or what is going to change things for the better?

Will Brexit be the catalyst for change for the better?

57 Tory MPs Prove They Are Idiots



Like it or not if Brexit occurs and if it fucks up the economy, whoever is Chancellor at that time will be forced to make significant changes to spending and taxation policies.

Why do these 57 MPs not want to grasp that fundamentally obvious point?

Oh, hang on, because it blows apart their Brexit scenario of paradise regained!

Brexit Tries To Nix Voting Extension



Evidently the Brexiters feel that those who have been late in registering are pro EU.

The question is, are they correct?

Leaving it to the last minute to register online, when inevitably the site crashed,  is your own fault and not a sinister conspiracy by the establishment.

MPs To Ignore Brexit Vote


The BBC reports that pro-Remain MPs are considering using their Commons majority to keep Britain inside the EU single market if there is a vote for Brexit.

What on earth is the point of this referendum then?

The Oncoming Populist EU Uprising


"If Europe cannot act together to persuade a majority of its citizens that it can gain control of its migrant crisis, then the EU will find itself at the mercy of a populist uprising which is already stirring."
