Difficult to trust journalists sometimes. Too much of our ‘news’ is sound bites and headlines.
Haven’t seen a recording of the speech beyond the headline but as with lots of opinions on what government can/should/are/are not doing we don’t always get the whole picture.

I heard most of the speech and as usual it was all waffle and soundbites.

The funny thing about this if true, is that he has proved so incompetent, that no one has trouble believing he said that in the context it had been portrayed.

Fair enough.
It's a shame more people didn't apply the same scrutiny to the endless lies and rubbish produced by the likes of Johnson when he was making a living spouting bullshit about the EU. Maybe we would be in a better position now if they did.

Well quite. The remain campaign has a lot to answer for
the good thing is should we go down a Scottish independence vote again you’d expect better questions and debate.
If the Scottish Nationalists want a referendum, they simply have to detail what happens on the Scotland/England land border in specific practical terms. That might focus the minds of voters.

At this point even after a vote for Scottish independence there is no need for a border other than what is currently there. Scotland is not part of the EU and accession would take some years.
I understand that both Scotland and England are both somehow not part of the EU. But surely if Scotland votes not to be part of the UK then there is some kind of new border created. Maybe I am missing something, but I assume leaving means not still being joined except geographically. Mexico and the USA are joined geographically, but one suggestion has been to build a wall between those two places.

My point exactly but it’s more than the border practicalities.
Who owns North Sea oil / gas for example - to get us back on track of this thread.

There doesn’t have to be any border control even though there is a border geographically. There’s a border now. Should Scotland ultimately join the EU then in the absence of the problems associated with the NI border I assume a hard border will be put in place.

Regardless of how quick you boil a litre of water, it requires the same amount of energy.
Apparantly.

The vote was a simple binary choice that assumed all voters knew four things.
The meaning of the word remain.
The meaning of the word leave.
What the UK is (or was).
What the EU is (or was).
There is nothing in those four things that either remainers or leavers have to answer for.
That might focus the minds of voters.

Electricity we are one of the top yes, but Gas we're not even mid table or top ten.
