They must know this. I don't know what their end game was here, seems like a stunt that has spiraled out of control.

Re: Catalonia Independence
As I’ve said previously I don’t think we want to start setting a precedent of acknowledging secessionist movements unilaterally declaring independence either

Re: Catalonia Independence
mmm, it's interesting that some those that are sympathetic to Catalan independence, were dead set against Scotland being independent !

We are a representative democracy - that’s how it works...

Hmm, not convinced. France, Germany and Italy have all declined to recognise Catalonia.

Re: Catalonia Independence
EU warns 'more cracks' in bloc
The EU's most senior official warned that "more cracks" were emerging in the bloc on Friday after the Catalan parliament declared independence from Spain, plunging the country into political and economic turmoil.

cracks in the EU bloc how unfortunate

I'm sure they'll be papered over as usual. Wouldn't want anyone to get the idea that the EU isn't a safe bet.

Re: Catalonia Independence
Sturgeon calls for Catalonia independence campaign to be ‘respected’[due regard for the feelings, wishes, or rights of others.]
Ms Sturgeon outlined her support for the Scottish government’s response and called for dialogue rather than criticism.
The leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP), Ms Sturgeon tweeted the Scottish Government's response to the result after the Catalan parliament voted for independence today.
She posted: “We respect position, the people of Catalonia must have ability to determine own future”.

Re: Catalonia Independence
Trust Nicola to stick her head above the Trenches. I can understand why Theresa May was quick to declare they don’t recognise Catalonia Independence.
She needs to recognise, Scotland had their ‘once in a lifetime referendum’, and that was to stay, the talk of further independence, is the reason she lost 20 Seats.
