We had a similar scenario in Scotland during Theresa May's failed attempt in the last general election where the leafleting campaign and associated monies linked to the Toerags was 'called into question'. I recall it was a blanket coverage of Tory leaflet after leaflet being posted through letterboxes throughout Scotland - almost a form of harassment/spam! I thought the SNP did not challenge this violation enough! Also is this faux pas common to the way that these toerags practise/cheat???
Odd. In the main you get 2 leaflets the most off each political party during election time.
I would like to ask you a question. You want Britain to stay in the EU but you also want Scotland to break away from Britain and join the EU. Let's say hypothetically Britain stays in the EU and Scotland gets independence and you apply for membership to the EU but are denied. What then?
Also let's say you joined after 2019 you would have to take the Euro as your currency and the control of your interest rates and other monetary policies would be controlled by the European Central Bank which is based in Frankfurt plus you would have to negotiate your contribution to EU funds.
Rajoy doesn't want Catalan independence so Spain could block you from joining because if an independent Scotland joined the EU then Catalan would turn round and say while we want independence too from Spain and we want to join the EU as well.
It's going to take years even if Britain leaves the EU to untangle a 40 year relationship with the EU, so how many decades would it take to sort out a 300 year relationship between the UK and an independent Scotland?
