    Don't confuse me with Kepler. I don't give a shiat about the DailyKos either.

      Well, it certainly appears that I was dead wrong in my theory that it was the failed "Scottish Independence" movement being the loudest about leaving the EU.

        Cameron just kept having referendums to deunify the country until one worked.

            Just like MSNBC, and CNN.

              Nowadays, you watch the news/a news site or two, and factor in the bias, then you may get an idea of what is the truth. Or watch EVERYTHING, OD on the news, and get an idea of the truth.

                I forget where I saw the article, but I saw that the "Scottish Independence" group was poised to rise again if Brexit was successful: they would want back in the EU.

                  If the Leaves really wanted to establish Fortress Britain against immigrants then Scotland leaving and joining the EU would turn the Scottish border into a Big Fat Problem.

                    BBC calls it for Leave. Projected 52-48.

                      Meh. Shorter than the US Mexico border. I know a guy who'll get the Scots to build it for the Brits. < facepalm >
