Brexit: PM is 'willing to listen to options' on Scotland

Prime Minister Theresa May has told First Minister Nicola Sturgeon she is "willing to listen to options" on Scotland's future relationship with the European Union.

But after talks in Edinburgh, Mrs May appeared unwilling to consider a second referendum on Scottish independence.

She said people in Scotland sent a "very clear message" in 2014.

full story


Listen is all she should do because Scotland is part of the uK and her people voted in significant numbers to remain part of the United Kingdom.  When it comes to Brexit and the vote to leave the European Union then I think that decision is final too.

It really annoys me that the sore losers on the remain side want a second referendum.  Is that how democracy works now?  If you don't get the result you want have another vote?

As for Nichola Sturgeon, in my opinion she's merely using this as a way to boost her own career.  Scotland voted "No" and that result should stand also!

We should have another referendum now. Folks are seing through the lies the Brexit lobby told us. We have regular General Elections so why not a chance to rectify the mistake that is Brexit. Thousands have lost their jobs already because of it

"BREXIT BREAKTHROUGH: Barnier concedes EU prepared to give Britain unique Brexit deal"

In years to come we will all see the Lies, Treachery,Treacherous deals, Corrupt deals done behind the locked doors by both EU and UK politicians. Yet again,it's all about money, that's why the pound stirling today has soared against other currencies.

Oh the stench of panic and fear from the remoaners/remainers/rich as leaving the EU gets closer and closer. The thought of how much money they think they are going to loose is driving them insane, and there's nothing so painfull as losing money for these scum bags. BUT, the truth is the UK will trade with the rest of the EU and world as before, and nothing will change. Money and goods will flow just as they always have. It's just the EU/UK Politicians trying to prove who's the biggest ass wipes at the moment.

Brexit will happen. Deal or no deal. The rich will suffer whatever the outcome, this fact they know, that is why the remoaners are so frantic for a second ref. Scare tactics from them have no impact anymore. Only seven months to go before us Brexiteers get our way and smash the remoaners.

@ Charmbrights we need another referendum (election) to get things right! Uk didn't really vote Brexit, just that it wanted reform of the powers that be in this country.

The vote against the EU was simply a protest vote. The referendum was really an Opinion Poll.

The result would not be the same if the vote was held again.

@ Charmbrights, Thank goodness all those countries you listed have shown us in the UK the dirty tricks that Governments play trying to get the result they want. But the British Brexit voters are wise to these tricks and won't allow it to happen here.
OUT means OUT.

But that is the way ALL referenda work in the EU. You put it to the vote and if you get the "wrong" answer you have another one until you get the "right" answer and then no more votes.

For example Denmark 1992/1993, Ireland 2001/2002 and 2008/2009.

Greece 2015 voted against accepting the bail-out conditions by 61% to 49% but the EU ignored this and the Greek government caved in and accepted the conditions.
