You and I know this is an anti-English thing. If the UK was so bad you'd have similar movements in Wales and Northern Ireland. It's a cult-like obsession.
Like everthing in life some ideas would work and some wouldn't. It's just the bits that didn't would wreck Scotland. Everyone knows of two such events even in the last decade; RBS in 2008 and the collapse in oil price recently. Why not just get on with governing with the vast powers the SNP have? Probably because it'll show the SNP's faults.Comment

If you think that you will be running your own affairs as a minor player on the out skirts of the EU you should probably be in a mental institution for your own safety.
For the record I support full self-determination for Scotland Wales and Cornwall as they have proven that they are all far reaches that are forgotten by London unless its for a weekend break.
If Scotland wants to go it alone then great but you shouldn't be doing it just to get in bed with and even more abusive partner than London.Comment
