Scotland is part of the British Union. But it competes separately in international sports tournaments such as the FIFA world cup.

It also voted 63% to stay in another union, the European Union.

But the voice of the Scottish people is overruled by Westminster. Seems that Brussels takes care of its smaller members like Ireland better than Westminster takes care of its smaller members like Scotland or Northern Ireland

Scotland is part of the UK. Scottish voters decided to remain in.

I’m not going back and forth with you about this even one more time. We’ve already gone over this a dozen times. This is boring.

If it wasn’t for Scotland, the UK would have left on no-deal terms now. It is largely thanks to remoaner jock MPs that we are stuck in this limbo instead of making the clean break we need. This ‘keeping another nation in/out of the EU against its will’ works both ways.
