@gavinpoints @JohnStuartWilso No, Brexit:
“Nestle, which recently announced it will move production of its iconic Blue Riband chocolate biscuit to the country just to ship it back to Britain… Polish workers who have removed themselves from Britain’s workforce… in a post-Brexit UK…”

@tommyknocker67 Why would you refute the fact that the result of the 2014 referendum brought us Brexit?
It did.
The SNP proposed the following day of the Brexit vote that the UK should remain in both the custom union and the single market.
Westminster refused.

@JohnStuartWilso Merging? Why would you want Scotland and Northern Ireland to merge?

@tommyknocker67 History tells us that the result of the 2014 referendum brought us Brexit.
An independent Scotland would have remained in the custom union and the single market, that we can agree on.

@JohnStuartWilso We can agree to disagree on this but what we can agree on is that an Independent Scotland can join our friends in Northern Ireland and be in the customs union and the single market.
Are you up for it?

@tommyknocker67 Not only we would still be in the European Union but the rest of the UK would still be in too.
The result of the 2014 referendum brought us Brexit, that we know.

@nobry Are we too big to be in the European Union? Don’t worry we are shrinking as we speak…

@Newareopagitica @europarl_en @UKHouseofLords I disagree, smaller countries get proportionally more out of the EU than larger countries, this is in fact one of the reasons why Britain left.
In the UK, it’s the contrary. The Republic of Ireland can testify that it is the case.
