I know a Conservative majority was predicted but for Labour to lose seats like Leigh, Bishop Auckland, Blyth Valley its a catastrophe

The people of north Belfast will not be represented in Westminster.

He called his run as representing the people of north Belfast?

I notice that the media have decided to ignore Northern Ireland again by the way.

Back in your box lads and enjoy your hard borders and custom checks.

Surely an irrefutable mandate for independence. This Tory majority may be a blessing in disguise.

I was a unionist, ex forces all be it part time (they still get shot too) and proud to be British and Scottish.

The gulf however between England and Scotland in politics has always been big it's now grand canyon sized.

Key fact for me and I will continue to repeat it is that you could delete/burn/destroy every Scottish vote ever cast and it would only change the outcome of one election (1920's) and none in my 41 year lifetime. That's astonishing and how anyone can be ok with it is beyond me.

Westminster isn't fit for purpose it's a detached from reality political class that represents no one.

I would be happy staying in Britain as part of a federal type structure (not unlike the EU) but that's off the table.

The commonwealth however would still be something to be part of affording some of those opportunities. Would also mean our military would continue to work together the same way Canada, Australia and many other commonwealth nation's do.

We need a fresh start and independence is the only way I can see to get that.

That was a quote from him. Says a lot that people would rather someone refuse to go than send him

Spot on Spr - the issue of the Scottish vote is also that because they are unlikely to influence the outcome of a general election the governing party don’t give a feck about us.

The political landscape in Scotland would be hugely different if Scotland was independent as each party would solely be focused on Scotland. Labour Lib Dem’s and dare I say it even tories might be ejected to govern Scotland if it was felt they were best fit us - most snp voters I know including me only vote snp as a means to an end rather than their manifesto.

Thats if the lib dems, labour and tories even bother. There would be brand new parties to vote for.

more importantly the SNP if it survived at all would be a very different party.

Once their unified cause or independence is achieved the left and right members of the party would split.

At the end of the day we would have new choices and the opportunity to make them

Absolutely - choice is all most of us long for.

It's good to see SF and DUP losing seats. It perhaps is a signt hat the people of NI want a country and not separatism within the province
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Be interesting to see if there will be a united Ireland vote in the coming years.
I just wonder about whether our social services are capable of absorbing another million citizens. Its at breaking point already.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Its happening mate, I said the other day that Brexit and the nonsense in England has pushed the agenda for a Utd Ireland far more than bombs and bullets ever could, sooner we get the vote the better but we need to start the conversation now of what a Utd Ireland means for all citizens inclusive and respectful to all
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You are right in saying that any potential discussions need to start now. However I reckon we will be at the polls next year and its probably FFs turn in office as well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Really thought FG are far ahead and ye all love them to bits?

😱

Btw I think it's two refs, one north and one south
