Scottish Independence

[Gethin]

the UK vote on leaving the EU was committed to by Cameron in Jan 2013, if the Tories won the 2015 Election - so i reckon it's fair to say it was a factor

 

 

*musing out loud*........ I wonder what desire there would be for a new Celtic Republic of Ireland/Scotland/Wales in the EU - leave England to blather away on its own

There's no point swapping a mixed identity for another - so whilst I could see 3 individual nations cooperating very closely as their economic profiles and aims would be broadly similar - a combined republic (IMO) wouldn't be ideal.

Liverpool and Cornwall would be interested in joining that.

Yeah, this.

Brittany too.

Not sure if you’re serious but no, I don’t think they would. I know they’re of Celtic lineage but that wouldn’t translate into wanting to join.

Some of the Portuguese heritage are Celts, and of course the Irish diaspora in Boston and NY

Stalybridge Celtic too

Well all of the Irish love Fairytale of New York. They always play it in their Irish Pubs

Has to be Delilah. The Welsh can take the lead. We’re the true Celts.

 

I’ve heard that all of the hillbillies in Kentucky and West Virginia are up for this new nation too. It’s gathering momentum.

They're more of planter Presbyterian stock from Ulster in the 1720s.
