malagateddy

How would that affect me and why would I have any claim?
 But if I Did not have a particular malady  and he knew It, but said I Did ,for personal claim , then I think I have a very good claim.
I think Boris knowingly lied for personal gain , I think he is liable, and I think politicians should be held to the same standard.

 
 
 When will they look into the statements by Edward Heath and cronies, who in the run up to the 1975 referendum, categorically stated that their was no chance of the EEC being transformed into a political Union. And right up to the present day when the majority of M.P’s voted to respect the 2016 referendum.
  And why is this announcement made, just after Johnson declares his intention to stand for the leadership of the Conservative party, while another investigation into antiSemitism in the Labour Party is delayed until After the E.U elections. 

That is debatable .
The figure was  350M , but we got a rebate , which means we paid 250 M
I'm quite sure that a Lawyer could argue that the 350M was correct

Andy Carroll anyone..on a pay as you play contract due to history of injuries??

Macron wants his puppet Barnier in place so Macron can call the shots for the banker group that he works for. With Merkel on the way out, her protege successor looking weak, her party doing badly he thinks he's in with a chance of getting his man in power.
 
With Britain gone, a less formidable German leader, Macron sees his big chance. 
 
Imagine France has the dominant EU power - they'll dip their bread in and screw everyone!

What a peculiar question. Obviously, decisions would be taken that specifically address the Scottish dimension of each of these areas, much in the same way that every other country makes decisions to suit its own circumstances. 
 
I could give you a rundown of my perspective on each issue but that is not the point as my perspective towards each is coloured by my political leanings, not my desire for self-determination. 
 

Just start with the businesses that will fail, and the jobs that will be lost, and the price increases as a result of a trashed currency ... bear in mind we have not left the EU yet, and to do so on a no deal basis would be economically tragic. But you don’t have a job to lose, do you Teddy? 

You may even get a modern version of Hadrians wall. Keep us scummy sassenachs out. [emoji3]

Done. Sent him an email suggesting "Kim jong-un is considering buying Scotland from the UK Tories, you interested in a counter bid ?"[emoji6]

You don’t believe it will hit your pocket, but you don’t care a jot if it hits others ... 
 
You will get zero benefit from Brexit, other than a temporary psychological kick, like the joy of Celtic winning the treble, but that soon fades. The very real costs will be paid by others.

Just another great example as to why the UK MUST leave the eu asap.

Tax evasion is already an indelible product of being a Tory. No the next thing will be proposing that Scotland is privatised and sold to the Trump organisation.

Is money your main concern in life?

Yes. I should have excluded Chelsea fans from the smarter Londoner observation.

He would not give up all that free gravy and expensive plonk...

It's hard to know where to start to address such a raft of concerns, and all are very pertinent questions - I understand that many potential Yes voters in 2014 bottled out at the last minute because the economic questions were not satisfactorily addressed. I think that the SNP has taken that on board; certainly, the Angus Robertson led initiative is meant to be identifying the weaknesses in the perceived case.
 
Are you sure that the books didn't balance? If so, you are in a very unique situation as the picture of Scottish finances (or any other UK partner country for that matter) is very muddied. Currently, Scotland sends through direct taxation 58 billion to the exchequer. The Scottish Gov receives back 30 billion for its spending plans, and the UK Government claims to spend a further 43 billion on behalf of Scotland. That is the origin of the mythical 15 billion deficit. What is not included in the 58 billion, however, is VAT revenue, tax on goods produced in Scotland but exported from English ports, oil and gas production from Scottish fields but landed elsewhere, etc etc, so the true value of Scottish contributions to the UK economy is higher than stated but totally unclear. 
 
In respect to the above, it is possibly worth questioning the figures with a sceptical mind. For example, Scotland, with a plethora of natural resources, whisky, unemployment at 3.5%, has a reported GDP per capita figure of $43,700. Ireland, on the other hand, with a highly skilled workforce but very limited natural resources and unemployment at 5.4% has a GDP per capita of $69,200. Is it really credible that Ireland could have a GDP per capita more than a third higher than Scotland? I am not so sure. 
 
With regards to civil service jobs, I presume that these positions currently fulfil a UK wide service rather than serving non-Scottish residents? Therefore it would be realistic to assume that these services would need to be replicated in an independent Scotland. SImilarly, those services provided by agencies located elsewhere in the UK will need to be replicated north of the border, so more jobs to be created - and already a strong pool of highly educated people ready to continue in what they were previously doing. 

I, too, have wondered where Grouse ended up - I hope he hasn't been sin binned once too often. I am sure he would be having a field day on some of the other threads at the moment!

Big Dom Rabb or Esther Mcvey..any of those 2 would do nicely
