So the UK govt "hits an all-time low" and proves beyond doubt that we live in a fascist state with no regard for democratic values and an unelected govt ruling by diktat that is unprecedented - an abuse of power and also an abuse of the Queen's position in ruling on certain parliamentary matters albeit IMO questionable anyway in a country that has no formal constitution!
In Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon calling it "a dark day for democracy". Absolutely and democracy must react accordingly!!
Based on today's news, it looks like Scot Indy beckons and more quickly than realised - it must be fast-tracked!! To any Scottish reader, UDI anybody and f### the section 30 order eh esp if this is the way that an English Tory govt wants to conduct its affairs on our behalf and a sovereign country and population that does not wanna follow the path of these Tory extremists!!
Listening to Nicola Sturgeon's live reaction to Johnson's comments - BRING IT ON, HAVE THE COURAGE OF YOUR CONVICTIONS, BORIS JOHNSON. CALL A GENERAL ELECTION NOW - WITH POLLING DAY BEFORE OCT 31 - AND LET THE PEOPLE VOTE. OR ARE YOU FRIT???
I doubt that will happen but if it did, Scottish voters would "swamp" a massive vote for the SNP thereby activating a mandate for Scottish Independence and again I'd be tempted to initiate a UDI move although "wait n see" what unionist UK govt (a likely ultra-right Tory-Brexit govt???? Yukkkkkkkk!!!) is eventually in place before deciding on the best option to gain self-determination - a pragmatic one if made available.
Another hard line view of events in England albeit how terrible it will be, and it will be terrible, the UK has chosen to leave the EU on October 31, and has rejected every opportunity to change its mind. It has taken none of them. It has chosen, public and politicians alike, what’s coming, and ENGLAND deserves to get what it chose.
Scotland had the chance to pre-emptively avoid the UK’s fate in 2014, and "bottled it"!!!!! But we also democratically chose to vote on it again. Scotland’s politicians now need to accept the UK’s/England's choice and devote all of their efforts to "assembling the lifeboats" and giving our country the chance that British voters have already had and spurned.
Imagine for a moment how we’d feel if we’d won the indyref vote 52%-48% (although I'd rather we had a big majority win >60% TBH!!), won a subsequent election, and it was Unionists who were now trying to stop independence in the courts or with dubious procedural shenanigans. We’d be scandalised, and rightly so.
It’s time to get out of the UK. Let's be normal and lets choose the method to do it, albeit pragmatic or hard-line and telling the hijacked British/English govt to GTF!! As for Ireland, these f###### Tory and unionist extremists could well be starting a civil war with this kinda unconstitutional political game where a coup has been initiated against another coup - call it the fox gathering the chickens!!! But will the chickens ally with other predators to topple this enemy of the people!!? Watch this space!
