Re: Scotland starts renewed case for independence
#2As a Brit that didn’t want Scotland to be independent last time around: good luck to them. Brexit has shown very clearly that Scotland wants to chart a different path to England and IMO they should be allowed to do it.
…just be generous to English folks seeking asylum from Tory rule, yeah?

In full agreement. The UK is now a joke of a country, all the best to them.

As a Dutch and EU citizen I fully understand their motivation. I also regretted to see England leave the EU.

Compared with whom and on what criteria?

#6Sound great, let England apply to join Scotland in a few years time.

#7I don't see why not. The whole leaving the EU thing is a reasonable cause for independence. In general I like smaller units of government too, and it's not as if they can't cooperate with the UK in areas where they agree.
I do have a horse in this race as I have Scottish family who'd have more choices with an EU passport.

#8It's one thing to push for independence itself to gain full sovereignty, though with the implication they'd join the EU right away they wouldn't have it for long, but don't pretend like it's somehow going to make Scotland "better".
