This doesn't surprise me at all. Westminster's actions in denying Scotland a referendum don't make sense if they truly want to keep the UK together. I suspect that the Tories would be happy to be rid of all us troublesome Celts, but they're too afraid to admit it.

#Scotland must be feeling like a doomed passenger on the Titantic.... With people saying you had your chance to get in the last boat but you choose to stay, so you can't leave now...You're going down with the rest of us!!!

I am so sorry to my friends in #Scotland regarding the decision of the #UKSupremeCourt today regarding the #IndependenceReferendum - I do, however, hope that this decision can be challenged and that there will be an opportunity for the Scottish people to exercise a decision for autonomy that doesnโt involve a mandatory consent from WM.

Scotland cannot hold second independence referendum, Supreme Court rules

The legal fight for another #ScottishIndependence referendum is over.
The political fight isn't.

"No man has a right to fix the boundary of the march of a nation; no man has a right to say to his country - thus far shalt thou go and no further."
~ Charles Stewart Parnell

There is no good case for the 'union.' The #UKSupremeCourt decision makes that obvious. They've had to make keeping Scotland in the 'union' a legal matter. This is desperation.

In "1707, England & Scotland were officially โUnited into One Kingdom by the Name of Great Britain. The agreement lent Scotland economic security & access to England's colonial trade network; England gained a safeguard against France, as well as the Jacobite supporters of the deposed James II."
It's a very different kettle of fish now & many #Scots changed their minds a while ago. The #EU may now provide more security.

Predicted, expected & best outcome, & on my birthday too. ๐
Sadly, as expected @ScotGovFM@twitter.com not focused on addressing things that really matter in Scotland; SNHS, education, poverty, drug deaths, economy, public services. That'd be too much to ask for, even today.

The UK isn't a confederation, it's a unitary state with devolution. So the ruling that the Scottish Parliament cannot call an independence referendum is unsurprising in hindsight.
However I do think any multinational state should be held together by consent and that it is morally wrong that they can't.
Unanimous decision of #UKSupremeCourt that #ScottishGovernment canNOT introduce a Bill relating to #reservedmatters, in this case a lawful #IndyRef2 referendum. The proposed Bill has more than a โlose connectionโ to reserved matters, i.e. the Union and UK Parliament. The Bill therefore relates to reserved matters and the #ScottishParliament cannot legislate on Scottish independence.

I am beyond disgusted by the #UKSupremeCourt decision on #Scotland and #ScottishIndependence but it's exactly what I expected.
