how come you're so interested in scottish nationalism? did you go canvasing for them or something?

VOTING FOR THEIR DESTRUCTION AS USUAL REEEEEE
Isaiah Diaz
How's it lads I asked the same question in Brit/pol/ last night at 3am I just wanted to ask again to get more opinions about the issue.
So what do you think about the CTA between Ireland and the U.K.? Do you think we should still have free travel between our countries and without passport checks after you leave the EU? We have had free travel for hundreds of years now but some politicians in Westminster want a hard border between the ROI and NI (terrible idea no one wants this)
Kayden Allen
I'm not sure how its legally possible to keep the free border.
How do EU migrants not just enter Britain through Ireland?
Jordan Rivera
its cause he knows the SNP are a fucking cancr and the only way to remove them from power is to let Scotland go free. Wait till it all goes tits up and the average Porridge Wog decides to vote properly.
Logan Torres
A few reasons 1. Their spike to power was relatively quick once an opportunity arose, making it a very interesting case-study for other "outsider" parties. 2. They managed to kick the shit out of the lazy Scottish Labour party, who'd become bloated and entitled, and drifted "right" to counter the SNP's "something for nothing culture" only to get kicked even harder in the teeth. 3. Since it's in Scotland, there's a nice sort of distance where you can cheer the successes without suffering any of the defeats. And all the little ways these interact. Things like winning a majority under a PR system give them a sort of underdog charm, though Sturgeon doesn't carry it as well as Salmond.
Also some other minor things like the possibility that Scotland voting to leave the UK could give us some fascinating chaos. The world still feels stagnant despite everything, so I'm always willing to throw more expensive china at the wall and see if that makes it less depressing.
Corbyn is so useless, jesus christ How the fuck has he managed to beat Brown, and fucking MILLIBAND of all people in being such a waste of parliamentary space

If Scotland becomes independent, the government will pretend they're like Sweden while the economy becomes like Greece
Kayden Martinez
I wonder how Scottish politics would look after independence, since Labour/Conservatives/Lib-Dems would be cut off from UK-Wide funding by their wider party.
Kayden Hughes
The free travel was in place hundreds of years before the European Union even existed. Ireland has the toughest immigration in Europe, we are 98% white country I think youl be grand
Ryan Collins
How many times have you asked this now?
Zachary Sullivan
Why not just leave the EU so we can create our own club of shiggy countries lad
Brody Torres
it'll be fun finding out!
Sure it'll be utter chaos and there will be massive bungling mistakes, but what better way to learn to fly that to throw yourself at the deck as hard as you can and hope you can miss.
I think it'll be good if for no other reason than it'll starve out all the workshy NEETS and those stuck on Bennies. When the money dries up to pay for plebs on the dole, plebs on the dole will need to either become citizens or starve.

I'd kind of like an independent Scotland to establish it's own currency. We meme about currency value, but the idea of a low-value Scottish pound to encourage exports would be a very appealing experiment. (And maybe mean they don't have to kill doleys, just doleys can only buy Scottish made products.)

There is a new political party who wants an Irexit but the Irish people don't. We benefit too much from the EU and are relatively happy. We aren't one of those countries who gets bossed around by Germany we tell them to go fuck themselves on a regular basis on issues like refugee quota and corporation tax.
Sorry I didn't see that, very good share thank you

yeah early on he had a chance because stoke is one of the lowest turnout areas in the country so labour support might not materialise but the turnout was reasonable (~40%) and all the gaffes just compounded to make him a bit of a joke, tories did surprisingly well in stoke and only came third by like 100 votes
Jaxon Brooks
We don't have an open border with anyone except the UK. We have immigration control where passports is needed and we check their bags to see if the cunts are here to stay and if they are we send em back home in a dingy

Everyone ITT needs to know some facts about the Stoke By-Election.
1. Labour lost 2% of their vote share 2. UKIP gained 2% vote share 3. Stoke has been a Labour safe seat since the 50s 4. The only party that gained a huge swing INSIDE A LABOUR SAFE SEAT was the Lib Dems 5. If UKIP get a 2% vote share increase in their target seats such as Thurrock they will win quite a few in 2020
TL;DR Stop being surprised UKIP lost a by-election in a Labour safe seat full of Thatcher hating tards.

No problem. I think Ireland leaving the EU would be a totally different kettle of fish, because of the Euro. I don't think the adoption of the Euro is reversible (or at least within tolerable political parametres).

A man who burned the Islamic holy book in his backyard has been charged with blasphemy, in a move his lawyer speculates was driven by fear of Muslim extremists. The attempted prosecution is the first of its kind in nearly 50 years.
The 42-year-old man from Jutland uploaded video footage of a Quran being lit on fire, which he posted to a Facebook group called ‘Yes to freedom – no to Islam’ in December last year.
“It is the prosecution’s view that circumstances involving the burning of holy books such as the Bible and the Quran can, in certain cases, be a violation of the blasphemy clause, which covers public scorn or mockery of religion,” said chief prosecutor Jan Reckendorff in a statement.
“It is our opinion that the circumstances of this case mean it should be prosecuted so the courts now have an opportunity to take a position on the matter.”
The defendant’s lawyer, Rasmus Paludan, said that his client had burned the Quran in self-defense, asserting that the Islamic holy book “contains passages on how Mohammed’s followers must kill the infidel, i.e. the Danes”.
“Therefore, it’s an act of self-defense to burn a book that in such a way incites war and violence,” he told the New York Times.

You have an open border to Europe. A quick passport check doesn't mean much.
