Yeah but on the bright side, there will be a few less immigrants, possibly hopefully, or maybe not we shall have to see. Oh and we have our country back too (not sue exactly what that means or who from), well hats left of it I guess!

Less immigrants = more as France will abandon the Calais borders

I dont agree mate.

You think the majority of moderate Catholics aren't pragmatic on the issue of nationality? Most of them I've met (including the bloke who lived 4 doors down from me) are happy enough to be British, but consider themselves Irish British. Now that Britain has taken this ridiculous decision, they'll want what's right for them, and understandably so.

Wow - he amount of opinion being posted as fact.

NI politicians interviewed last night said there was no desire in NI for a united Ireland, but what do they know compare the 'enlightened' sore losers on here eh!.

The economic landscape for Scotland has changed as oil has dropped so much. They may ask for another referendum (but this has to be granted by the UK), and there's no guarantee they would be accepted into the EU anyway by some other countries with accession movements within them.

I wonder how the Home Counties will feel when masses of bodies start washing up along our beautiful coastline as the French make it easy for people to try and dodge the English channels shipping lanes?

Scotland voted to Remain part of the UK and therefore abide by the decisions made by the collective will of the UK population.

Sturgeon can bog off :glare:

This will trigger another referendum.

No it won't. They had a chance and voted to remain part of the UK. Best they can hope for now would be to ask for another one in light of this. This does not have to be accepted. Even if it did happen and the had a referendum and they left there are no guarantees they would be accepted into the EU as an independent country.

If the SNP with 54 of the 59 Scottish MPs can convince Scots that the goalposts have now moved sufficiently, then it will be granted - and rightly so.

If Scotland had WON their last referendum, Cameron would have had a much bigger majority and may not even have held an EU referendum.

Next time there will be no people like Gordon Brown swinging the vote at the last minute to stay in.

Bye bye Scotland, all the best.
