The UK Gov actively campaigned to remain ? The whole Tory party was split down the middle ! The Cabinet were split they basically danced to UKIP tune on this one. There is a huge change in attitude from the people of England and sadly its based on anti immigration and xenophobia this has been whipped up by UKIP and right wing Tories. and the MSM in England. its a real shame. The Tories were quite happy with this agenda as they hammered the country with their austerity policies. So don't tell me they were serious about remain it was halfhearted at best. Scotland voted to remain and are now being dragged out against its will ...THAT IS A MATERIAL CHANGE and justifies any future referendum .
Don't know how long you've been in Oz RMDU but had you been in Scotland during the referendum you would have seen project fear in full flow every day some totally unfounded scare story down right lies and half truths for two years the Scottish people were bombarded with this brought to them by the Unionist MSM and of not forgetting the British states mouthpiece the BBC. The UK didn't win the referendum they battered the Scots into submission. And now all their cr@p is beginning to fall apart bit by bit. 1000 tax jobs safe with us....1000 tax jobs gone !! Carbon capture plant gone.. Renewable subsdies ..gone EU membership ..gone And there is the pensions one of t5he Biggest lies told in the campaign and the one more than any got them the victory. We had Better together activits well Labour party c8**ts to be honest telling our old folk on their own doorstep they would lose the pensions if they voted YES even Gordon Brown joined in... And where are we now ? the pension age has increased for women, meaning some will lose out up to £30,000. UK Government policy since the referendum means that middle to high earners will be better off through their pensions but that low earners will bear the cost of pension reforms. A Scot earning around £15,000 with a working life of 30 years, could see their pension drop £1,800 per annum. Border controls navy shipbuilding the list goes on and on .. We were phuckin lied to and conned big time. the xenophobia comes from the first couple of lines from your reply just seemed to be anti immigrant but in retrospect it was harsh and I withdraw it and apologise.
