Jeff Venom Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 He's still a conveyor-belted born to rule twonk though, and if Boris is "charismatic", his brother is the polar opposite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me neither. I thought I had misheard when it was announced on the radio. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A new campaign plus the the undemocratic soundbites leave would trumpet if a new referendum took place, I'd imagine leave could easily win again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 If Leave won again and Scotland voted remain in equal or increased numbers then the independence cause would receive a massive boost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly the same was said prior to 2016 and the numbers barely changed. The SNP's stance on a second EU referendum, whilst entirely right for Scotland, will come back to haunt them in the event of a yes vote. Particularly if it is tight which it probably will be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
