This is just perfect
Prime Minister Theresa May has said a second referendum on Scottish independence would ‘make it more difficult’ to secure a good post-Brexit settlement with the EU, adding: ‘Now is not the time.’
In a televised interview, the PM added:
“I think it wouldn’t be fair to the people of Scotland because they’d be being asked to make a crucial decision without the necessary information – without knowing what the future partnership would be or what the alternative of an independent Scotland would look like.”
Hmm… remind you of anything?

You are aware that she campaigned to Remain?

Theresa May’s cabinet could be the stars of a political comedy. The show literally writes itself!

May was a Remainer. So if that is what you are getting at, she is entirely consistent.
Unlike LFF, however, she also accepts that her side lost, and is getting on with doing what people voted for.

Logic and common sense and “information” don’t apply to the SNPs viewpoint though. Absolutely everything is a reason for independence and anyone who says otherwise is part of the Murdoch press or an English traitor.
