    I thought that right to buy took all the council houses. I think that it will be Labour policy to suspend right to buy in areas where the social housing problems are worst. For that read everywhere.

    this is not a bad policy in my opinion. A large number of former council houses are in the private rental sector.

    Think same should be added for if you vote Lib Dem, worst of the lot. Plus 100% in Scotland if you vote SNP.

    Oh, so I didn’t see an open top bus with Reform on it then? Some loony lefty must’ve embedded it in my psyche. Have to laugh, a Farage disciple calling others brainwashed. Solve the puzzle,. Farage= Trump= br—nw—sh-d

    The main problem is that councils are not allowed to use the money to build more social housing.

    The Tories were the only party who fully agreed to the referendum - it was a manifesto commitment.

    EDIT: Changed referendum to manifesto in second part of sentence to correct a brain fart.

    I have, and it can be read be read, and was read that way. Patronising, seems to be a thing with you, but keep flying the Reform flag hey. A leader that was democratically voted into a parliament then refused to attend because HE, not his constituents, didn’t agree with it. Not very democratic or being representive of your constituents. Farage and his ilk are egoistic lying ********, keep flying their flag won’t you.

    Each to their own Ian, my comment was somewhat tongue in cheek based on how the thread was going.

    If you think brexit was a bad idea but believe Scottish independence is a good one then in my eyes that is crazy and we'll never agree. I support the political split with the EU but as part of the same Island, sharing the same currency (currently) which will always be governed by the BOE, don't buy into how it would be beneficial for you guys to split. But you have your reasons and I'm certainly not going to barrage you with hate like some on here do when I disagree. I'm British on my passport but technically English and I believe Scottish people have the right to decide for themselves.

    If you do have another referendum in the future, I'd like the rest of the UK to do a mirrored one to show the Scottish people what the rest of the UK think should happen. I'd be confident a rather large majority would want Scotland to remain part of the UK.

    There are stark differences between the makeup of the UK versus the UK's previous membership of the EU.

    My suggestion would be a huge shakeup of how the UK relationship works. So at a UK level agreement is made between the countries on a per head contribution to certain national public purses, which could be for things like pensions / healthcare / defence, this ensures we all play our equal part and sets that level of fairness. Other than that, each country within the UK would be then left to set their own level of taxations and spend according to their devolved parliaments. So it keeps the union together yet allows virtually full autonomy for each national parliament. Would you go for something like that?
