    “That’s why she’s all but certain to agree to a referendum. That’s the way p9olitics works within our constitution.”

    Well May has said in fairly clear terms that there will be no referendum until the end of the 2 year negotiation period. I’m not sure this is the right decision though, as I will weaken out position as the EU will no know if the Scotish ecconomy will be included in any deal that is made. On the other hand, the Scotish ecconomy probably doesn’t matter as it is so much smaller than England’s.

    The Spectator isn’t right wing,they publish articles from the left and the right pretty much equally as far as i’ve seen.

    In regards to the team, Canada, Australia and New Zealand have all offered to transfer staff from their trade teams. Canadians ones especially will be useful as they have recently negotiated CETA with the EU. But I don’t think that will be nessersary, the EU has a very weak position. Although they avoided a Wilders victory in the Netherlands.

    I’ve been using the same browser for about 6 months, so something on the site has changed recently to break compatibility.

    The rules were different when they joined, and they had different deficits then, you might also notice than several of the member states are blocked from entering the Eurozone until they meet a certain level of budget deficit. Only the UK and Denmark have an opt-out from this system. Scotland wouldn’t havea currency, so they would want to transition into the Eurozone as quickly as possible.

    It is absolutely more irrational, as Cotland is a very poor country with a small population, The UK is the 5th largest ecconomy and the 2nd largest military power (depending how you measrue it).

    Sturgeon has very little power outside of Scotland, I don’t think she can pose a credible oposition to May. She is just using the referendum as a distraction from how badly the SNP are managing Scotland.

    I’m not really sure how you class having no ammendments made to the bill after two seperate votes in parliment a defeat.

    And Sturgeon doesn’t even have the power to call a referendum, it must be voted on in parliment. I remember that you didn’t like it when May tried to use royal prerogative, so why are you okay with Sturgeon trying to use power she doesn’t have?

    The EU referendum was already on the Conservative party manifesto when the Scotish referendum started, and it was fairly clear that they would be winning the general election at the time.The Scotish people voted knowing they would have to accept the result of that if they stayed.

    But you din’t address the point that I made about Scotland not qualifiying for EU membership because of it’s budget deficit. The SNP would have to make significant cuts to public spending, possibly even priviteising whatever is left of their NHS assets.

    I’m using a different version of Firefox, on windows, my text it black again now, but I can’t use the ‘text’ mode still.

    Nothing stands out in there. I have no idea why the quote or reply buttons aren’t working for you, since they are basic HTML links. Have you tried loading the site in a different browser to see if the issue persists?

    I can also quote.

    Edit:
    The text is still white when I am editing it.

    It says my browser window is larger than my screen size, which is interesting.

    I haven’t tried that, but I don’t see any reason why the problem would persist.

    I’m using a variant of Debian currently.

    I can do, but the information it puts out is wrong.
