I compare how the small nations are respected in the EU to how they are ignored in the UK.
Brexit – Ireland fully supported by the EU. Scotland totally ignored by Westminster.

it is our choice and your insult only proves my point.

Labour down to 12percent in the latest polls (Scotland). A Labour Party that once had 50 Scottish MPs now struggling to retain ONE, yet they still prefer Tory rule at Westminster to Scottish Independence. The Red Tories are finished in Scotland.

With a mandate from the Scottish Parliament for IndyRef2, the terms of a Section 30 having been met, 60% of Scotland’s MPs having been SNP and over 50% in the polls supporting independence what more is expected??

What else needs to be done before independence is granted?
