Is the SNP’s position literally just “the worse things are in the UK; the better the chance for an independent Scotland”?

Why aren't the conservatives voting for... anything They won't vote for may's deal, they won't vote for any of the alternatives, they won't vote for no deal the gently caress do they want?

They want pain. So they can privatize the National Health Service, the greatest British achievement of the past 100 years.

Grondoth posted:Why aren't the conservatives voting for... anything They're not seeing the One True Deal they all imagined in their heads, which involves all the benefits of being in the EU (funding, MEP power and salary, greater ease in travelling to Spain for your holiday) and none of the responsibilities (fees, obeying the rules, foreigners being allowed to enter the country even if they're not multi-millionaires, having to actually show up and do your MEP job instead of just appearing on Question Time with your hot takes every Thursday). And they're going to hold their breath until they get their way. (and I obviously took long enough to type this that I was beaten hugely, but still)

Grondoth posted:Why aren't the conservatives voting for... anything 50% of Brits want an end to free movement of people/no more Poles. That's literally impossible due to how the EU common market is structured and would probably be the end of the EU, if it were ever allowed to happen. Basically, imagine California unilaterally barring all other state citizens from entering the state, but still continuing to move its own services, capital and labor freely around the US. That's what the Brits want and they are never gonna get so here we are in whatever this is.

A critical piece in understanding all of this from an American perspective is to realize that Poles/Romanians/Bulgarians/Spaniards aren't Whites in the UK. They are like American Mexicans or Canadian Americans or Japanese Koreans or German other Germans

the extremely funny part of all this is that white americans would be ecstatic to have poles moving to the country en masse

the triply funny part of this is that white americans were loving boiling over about polish people a century and a half ago

Everybody knew what Remain looked like and it was clear what you were voting for. Leave was this ambiguous concept that was pitched in such a way that people interpreted it in the way they wanted. The Leave bloc is fragmented into: leave now with PM's deal, leave now with no deal at all, extend A50 and negotiate for a different deal, etc. all of which are mutually exclusive routes.

a state where the democratic part of government no longer functions (formally due to procedural deadlock but the root cause being sabotage and flagrant contempt for democracy) and the nondemocratic part of government assumes all power is the end state of neoliberal governance
