    On a more serious note if the Scots have their way and if they separate, what industry will the idiots ride on for their monies?

    Whisky?
    Oil?
    Finance?
    Retail?
    Manufacturing?

    Their skills in selling Snake oil will help, but who want's to buy it?

    I ardently pray and hope that they move out and go deep into the abyss of poverty and are looked down as Romanians/Polish are.

        We're under represented if anything.

          We'll not. Will England too have a nuclear deterrent?

Now that Labour/Tory/LibDems have campaigned side-by-side in the Indyref, the voters can't see any difference so the Scottish parliament and Westminster votes are starting to align to an SNP majority.
              In point of fact, fewer people voted SNP in this Election than voted YES in the referendum. I doubt Nicola will be pushing for another Indy Ref too quickly or when that goes belly-up it really WILL be over for a generation or more.

                The SNP have played a masterstroke along with the tories, they destroyed Labour/LibDems, who will likely never win a majority in England for decades. It suits both the SNP to have the Tories in number 10 and suits the Torys to have SNP wiping out Labour in Scotland.

                  Yep Nicola is a canny operator she knows a quick referendum and another defeat will put it to bed for decades. Better to get more autonomy as a stepping stone to eventual independence when the time is right.

                      Yeah, but she should be careful what she wishes for. I'd bet her demands for more tax-raising powers and control over benefits will come back to haunt her.
                      If the Tories give her significant control over raising the cash locally for her "progressive" agenda then many of those who voted for her this time round will soon get a flavour of what it is like to be footing the bill personally rather than just benefiting from blowing the over-inflated Barnett-derived pocket money that they currently get to splash out with.
