1) nobody born or who lives in Scotland calls whisky Scottish. That’s the word used by people who don’t know anything about it 2) nowhere in that attachment does it say “Scottish Law” Do you guys like displaying your ignorance to the world? It doesn’t bother me. I will happily spend all day correcting you
The court is composed of the President and Deputy President and ten other Judges of the Supreme Court, all with the style of "Justices of the Supreme Court" under section 23(6) of the Constitutional Reform Act
So you have clipped a weblink, which proves nothing more than Scottish Judges a small role to play in Scottish cases before the Supreme Court and yet I am the daft one?
1) I work with a bloke born in Scotland who calls it Scottish. 2) Apart from the 1st and last word in the attachment, you humourless nork. For a word that "doesn't bother you", you certainly seem to be triggered very easily by it, Scotchy.
And your point is? How many are Scottish? How many will sit on this case? Most importantly which legal system will be predominantly used for reference? You guys are just clipping snippets with no understanding. I will wait for Zhed to come along, since he will have the facts. But historically, the highest appeal court was the Law Lords. They have only recently been resolved by the Supreme Court
Its not amazing that the Judges follow the law and pass correct judgements, afterall it is their job!
You asked ‘two out of how many?’ so that’s what I answered. If you click on the link in my answer it says who the members are. Lord Reed (The Deputy President) and Lord Hodge would appear to have some Scottish connections, but you can check the rest of them yourself. It’s your point, so do some reading!
Sooooo, they followed the law (but it wasn't the verdict required from the remain establishment) so they followed the law again until they got it right for the remain establishment - it's their job after all Yeh, I can see that, thanks for the explanation
Good question! Tbh I can’t actually remember how the SC resolves conflicts between Scots and E&W Law. The highest court I’ve appeared in is the Court of Appeal where such matters don’t crop up. Most practitioners go their whole career without doing a SC case as there’s a sharp drop off in the number of cases going from CA to SC because it is very difficult to get permission to appeal. I’m karting at the moment with my eldest but if I remember I’ll have a look when I get home
Given the implementational changes we would be making, they are perfectly reasonable transition expectations. The fishing one is to be expected, frenchies like everyone else to follow the rules except their own so possibly taking france to court because they can't control their own fisherman is likely. We had to abide by it when we lost our waters. Nothing there worries me as a long term issue
