I could park a truck in front of the fkers close I suppose.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Ya horse faced prick.

i am afraid your only solution is a house fire. preferably after inadvertently leaving 5000 gallons of petrol next to the gas cooker that you left on with a pan of chips before you left home to go on holiday . no one will suspect a thing, house fires due to unattended chip pans are a common occurrence in snp strongholds .

this post is intended to be tongue in cheek just in case any of our snp loving friends get upset.

A nice idea but in the case of one it would involve setting my own building alight. Which in spite of my hatred for all things SNP is slightly further than I would go to make my point.

Spot on article, it says it all. Reckless is a great word to describe any efforts by the SNP to declare a second referendum.

An independent Scotland would be a Greece Mark2, except a lot worse off, outside the UK and the EU. With such uncertainty prevailing why would any large business invest in Scotland, now or in a future outside of the UK.

A large company could probably buy Scotland in those circumstances.

With the way things have gone I'd be very tempted to just say split the country, the nationalists can go and do their own thing with NO input like currency etc from the rest of the UK, and just let them get on with it. They can sort out things like they want and deal with the consequences when it falls apart. The rest of us carry on and don't have to listen to the constant complaints about it being everyone else's fault.

Well, that's my idea of independence. (In fact, if that was what the SG had been peddling I might've had a bit more respect for them.)

Doesn't seem to be the average nationalists idea though.

How should the PM react when Sturgeon officially calls for indyref2?

Let it happen and let us all laugh at the Nats again when they lose, or block it and give them more to whine about (and potentially increase the number of people willing to vote yes)?

Can someone point out to me how the rest of the UK benefit from Scotland not being independent? What benefit accrues to us?

Some oil and gas, somewhere to park the Tridents, supply of native troops and a simplified border arrangement both for security and trade.

You're forgetting the small minority of Jimmy Krankie types who it winds up beyond measure too

She should tell them to fk off.

More people willing to vote yes is moot if you can't have a legal referendum. And by the time the Tories are out (a while yet) the SNP will have fked up somewhere badly enough for their support to have died down.

Plus it will drive Krankie mental.

On the flip side that means she'd be on the telly every fking day greetin about Westminster/Tories/Hardbrexit/mandate/Scottishpeople bla bla.

Or she could have one anyway and go for some sort of UDI. See if the EU fancy someone with no regard for the rules.

Or we could just settle it once and for all with a once in a lifetime, once in a generation referendum... again. And possibly again.

fk the SNP.
