There is no point now the UK has agreed an EU trade deal. The SNP are Bonkers.

The SNP's own White Paper stated many times that it was a Once In A Generation referendum.

@Gartly In a Democracy you don't ignore the publics vote. The SNP ignored their own promise in their own Referendum White Paper, which stated many times that it was a "ONCE IN A GENERATION VOTE" and the SNP have ignored the largest vote in British history 17.4 Million people Brexit vote to leave the EU. The UK filled the EU parliament with the largest single political party, the Brexit Party. Then the UK public filled the UK Parliament with an 80 seat majority for the only Pro UK/Brexit party (the Conservatives) So the UK has proved many times, with further votes. So where is the lack of democracy???? Apart from the SNP refusing to admit democracy has taken place many times in the past decade. Your failed narrative is null and void.

The UK's largest food supplier Tesco says there will be No Noticeable price changes in UK supermarkets. The FAKE polls run in Scotland were funded and run by the Loopy SNP supporters.

@burnzyj7100 Your talking Utter Rubbish. The UK only imports 25% of it food from the EU. That figure will be less next year as None EU imports become cheaper than EU imports. Most of that is seasonal fresh fruit and salad during the summer and Autumn. . How much of that fresh food is actually growing in the winter month in the EU? Also how much salad do you think people eat over the winter months? Look on any supermarket shelf in the UK during the winter and you will struggle to find more than 2-3 items in the fresh food isles that are from the EU. Everything is imported from Tropical countries during the winter. So where are you imaginary price rises coming from???? LOL

@nstaudt You clearly understand nothing about this topic. The UK has New trade deals with 62 countries plus the EU trade deal, in just 2 years, that are worth almost 900 Billion (Without paying a single penny/cent to the EU) Many more trade deals will follow next year. If Scotland joined the EU it would have to pay into the EU and sign over control of it's rules and regulations and laws to EU control. Plus the rest of the UK makes up 60% of Scotlands exports. The EU only makes up 20% of Scotlands exports. Why would you swap 20% exports that are now mostly tariff/tax free, for 60% of your exports hit with higher tariffs/taxes??? You wouldn't. So it make zero sense for Scotland to join the EU. The UK's new EU trade deal has Zero Tariffs, Zero Quotas, Access to the Single Market, No ECJ control over the UK, No EU Regulations, Zero membership fee. I'm happy to educate you further if you require more information.

If Scotland joined the EU it would have to pay into the EU and sign over control of it's rules and regulations and laws to EU control, with a worse trade deal than the UK had with the EU. Plus the rest of the UK makes up 60% of Scotlands exports. The EU only makes up 20% of Scotlands exports. Why would you swap 20% exports that are now mostly tariff/tax free, for 60% of your exports hit with higher tariffs/taxes??? You wouldn't. So it make zero sense for Scotland to join the EU. The UK's/Scotlands new EU trade deal has Zero Tariffs, Zero Quotas, Access to the Single Market, No ECJ control over the UK, No EU Regulations, Zero membership fee. So Scotland would gain NOTHING from joining the EU but it would lose a massive amount. How is that Scottish Independence???
