There is a famous English quote from the post period of signing the Treaty of Union 1707 - "...we have catched the Scots and we will never let them go...." Again reflect on current events and the shit that we are now being subjected to as a sovereign country. May I also add there were riots in the streets of Edinburgh at the time of the signing of The Treaty of Union while an English army was stationed just outside Edinburgh to ensure conformity with said agreement. IMO the Scottish Government should immediately rescind the Treaty of Union of the Scottish and English parliaments. This is well within the rights of the Scottish Parliament and the people. It would also be recognised internationally. What is interesting about this ruling is that while upholding the law, the judgement knowingly denies Scotland the expression of its democratic will, instead deferring it to the sovereignty of Westminster. This exposes Westminster as a unitary state and a very compromised democracy for all the world to see. The court didn't see it in its remit to address this consequence. I must concede I'm more disappointed by this judgement than I thought I would be, but it is a political question and not a legal one - so the time has come to be more combative. THE OFTEN-PREACHED VOLUNTARY UNION IS DEAD - IT IS OFFICIAL!!!
