He discussed the prospect of a second vote on an independent Scotland on BBC Radio Scotland's Newsdrive programme.
Quote MessageTwo million Scots voted to remain part of the United Kingdom - so a convincing majority voted no and in advance of that referendum, Nicola Sturgeon herself was very clear that this was a once in a generation vote; indeed she went further than that and said it was a once-in-a-lifetime vote. It wasn't a qualified or conditional statement, it was unqualified and unconditional statement at that time. When we had that decisive vote, two million Scots said 'no' so that is the matter over.

The Ukip leader spoke to BBC Radio Scotland's Gary Robertson as he [Farage] enjoyed his first pint of the day in a London pub.
"It's almost like a dream come true," he said. But he added: "I understand that London and Scotland didn't vote the same way as the rest of the nation but I would just say this: we have voted for independence.
"Is Nicola Sturgeon really going to hold a referendum against independence?
"She can't be independent and a member of the European Union so let's get the terminology sorted out. If she wants to be a EU member, good - but that's not independence.
"The UK now has genuine independence.
"I think Nicola Sturgeon herself know that if she held a referendum now on splitting from the UK with the potential of joining the EU and probably having to sign a treaty which committed Scotland to the Euro, she'd lose anyway."
It should also be noted, that some people who voted YES, in the last Indyref, would vote NO next time. As they don't want to join the EU, and have the Euro, as our currency.

I think those in Scotland amd Northern Ireland who harp on about those countries voting differently, should consider that the exit votes on both countries, which were high , contributed to the overall exit vote, so Scotland and Northern Ireland DID vote to leave the EU, as without those votes the overall count might not have reached a sufficient number - end of debate !!!
Tom Ferraioli
Hi I’m Scottish and proud of it, my husband is English. If Nicola wants independence who do I vote for? Do we have to get divorced because she wants to break up the UK? Do we go back to England because we want to stay together? She is holding people to ransom. The vote was taken and the result was NO. It will interesting to see what happens now.

The oil tycoon said reassurances from financial institutions suggest a fundamental change to the commitment to energy firms is unlikely.
But economic uncertainty, and the troubles already affecting the North Sea sector, are a mix he believes could make investors cautious.
"It would not be helpful at all if potential investors from overseas in North Sea oil and gas licences... if they saw the UK as less attractive.
"Having said that, I would say that 90-95% of the really important decisions in the next three or four or five years will be taken by players who are here already."

Mr Campbell told BBC Scotland Newsdrive: "As to why more people voted for leave, there's lots of different reasons.
"But if I had to boil it down to one, it's a lot of people feeling - particularly in the north of England, and parts of the south as well - that globalisation has passed them by.
"The Remain message was maybe too clear. The remain message boiled down to economic risk. I think they thought economic risk was enough.
"I felt it was just too too easy for the Leave campaign to characterise the Remain campaign as Project Fear."

Speaking after a conversation with Nicola Sturgeon, Ms Dugdale said: “This is a bad result for jobs and for the economy in Scotland and across the UK.
“I spoke to Nicola Sturgeon this afternoon. We both have profound disagreements about the constitutional future of Scotland, but I stand ready to work with her in the best interests of the people of Scotland.
"Now is the time for calm heads. Labour's manifesto ruled out a second referendum in the lifetime of this Parliament - we won't be changing our minds any time soon."

Speaking to BBC Radio Scotland's Drivetime programme, the former business secretary said David Cameron made a "bad call" in calling the referendum in the first place.
He went on to say he had "a lot of sympathy" for people who voted for the union and "now feel terribly let down that England and Wales have walked away from Europe."
And he warned that Brexit could affect the devolution settlement, "which is tied up with European laws and legislation".
"This could come to a crisis fairly soon," he said.

He warned that the price of fuel is likely to rise and the shock result may plunge Scotland into recession.
Quote MessageUK and Scottish leaders need to do everything that they can to deliver stability in the short-term, but must also act quickly to resolve key fundamental questions around the UK and Scotland’s position in Europe and the global economy.

Jenny Laing, who leads the Labour group at Aberdeen City Council, criticised Nicola Sturgeon's decision on a second independence referendum.
She said the city and the future well-being of its economy depends on partnerships with other European countries.
Quote MessageThis is now all in limbo but people can rest assured that Aberdeen City Council will do everything in our power to maintain these links as we continue to build our city and economy in the face of miserly funding from the Scottish Government....This is a dark day for the people of the UK and the last thing we need at this point is Nicola Sturgeon to raise the spectre of another Indyref, before we have come to terms with the EU referendum result."

Quote MessageI'm devastated by this result. In fact, I'm really angry about it too because of the economic consequences that we've already seen in the markets - the currency - but also businesses losing value almost every minute of the day so far. That's a consequence that people will feel in their pockets.
Willie Rennie, Leader, Scottish Liberal Democrats

The BBC's Gavin Esler, outside the Scottish Parliament, says First Minister Nicola Sturgeon managed to be "very bold and very cautious at the same time" in her statement earlier, saying a second independence referendum is "highly likely" after the UK voted to leave the EU.
She was bold, Gavin says, in that she declared the EU leave vote "a game changer" which could lead to a second independence vote.
She was cautious in that she didn't set out a timetable for the vote, and also in that she has been speaking to Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London, which also voted to remain, on how the two could co-operate.
Anecdotal evidence suggests that some who voted No to independence in 2014 might vote Yes in a future referendum, Gavin adds, "but what kind of EU would they be voting to stay in?" While some supporters of independence have been calling for a referendum as early as next May, he adds, "I don't think that's her timetable".
A second referendum on Scottish independence is not the way to address fears over the UK decision to leave the EU, says Ruth Davidson.
