You have to also realise that this is only one element of a multi-faceted "loss maker"! The social consequences are massive but generally unmentioned!! What is the overall financial "hit" to the UK as a consequence of a "split vote" in 2016 that flung the whole Brexit idea into our laps as a realistic option!!! It has been a f###### disaster and that "hit" must be millions n millions of quid if not well over a trillion!! Was it all worth it???? Was it f### and we stand to lose much more if we proceed and yet I'm listening to shameless Tory clowns (plus that manipulative, disruptive c###, Farage, and others) still embracing the Brexit concept while the country and parliament are "paralysed"!!! My country (not a UK region!!) voted to remain with the EU and is "polls apart" from England and the unionist cretons up here who keep uttering their anti-indy shit/drivel under the cheeky disguise of "representing the voice of the Scottish people"!! Bastards!! And at last, a referendum bill finally introduced by the Scot govt to "pave the way" for another Scot Indy charge.
