Who refused the Outer Hebrides, Orkney and Shetland  a referendum on independence?

And i believe that the Outer Hebrides is represented both at Holyrood and Westminster by the
Scottish Nationalist Party.

The Scottish Parliament.

The people of the Western Isles are gaelic speaking Highlanders with a different lifestyle and different needs from the people further south.
How does that address the complete contradiction in your previous post?

The people of the Western Isles are represented both at Holyrood and Westminster by the Scottish National party.
So yes they do have " different needs from the people further south"

As do people in the wilds of Yorkshire, they have different needs from people in the Home Counties.  What was the point again?

The Scottish people aren't all in agreement because they don't share the same problems and concerns. If they did the Islanders wouldn't be interested in taking a different path than the mainlanders. Understanding the Islanders isn't the same as understanding the mainlanders.

You do seem to believe you have your finger on the pulse of both " Islanders" and " Mainlanders".
You are aware that the Western Islanders have vote SNP at both Westminster elections and Holyrood elections much the same as many "Mainlander" constituencies.
Is it a wee while since you last visited the Isles?
I would imagine that their views reflect the varied view of those who live n many areas of Scotland.

I have no idea what relevance any of this has to my question.  In case you hadn’t noticed roughly 50% of the UK is (was) in fierce disagreement with the other 50% about membership of the UK.  What point are you trying to make?

Islanders and Mainlanders both overwhelmingly voted to stay in the EU so God knows what point G-Unit is trying to make.

Definitely no more chancers/scroungers economic migrants from deepest Africa then.  Let's hope storm Bella keeps the rest of them in France until 1st January when we take back control.  @)(++(*

I'm overtly racist & proud but I'm more than happy to see Hong Kong citizens get UK passports.

Chinese/Asians tend to be hard working & decent imo.

I'd rather 3 million of them than one more Muslim.

That’s never happening, in fact more will be arriving from Africa very soon now that we have made immigration a level playing field and don’t need to import cheap labour only from Europe anymore.

“The PM will make a four-day trip to India at the end of this month. Expect an early success in trade discussions with Delhi or he wouldn’t be going. But India’s price for a trade deal has long been better immigration access to Britain. Is that a price leave voters are happy to pay?”

Well, is it?
