Scotland's Independence (make it happen)

[Rantor]

...and if not would we 'compel' them?

Well, if Scotland (or England) got turfed out the EU in the process then probably it could be the case.

Of course, this would be a totally repercussion free process.......

[Churchill]

the middle finger , and guess which direction it would point

Edinburgh?

Which part of William Wallace?

The bit that fell off on the way to Smithfield Market?

[Burdock]

not his small wiener I hope...

What is interesting is that the scots on this site do not have this inferiority/victim of the english, complex. Which is a shame really because we have no one to wind up on this subject.

It's all a matter of finding the right levers

Which part of William Wallace?

No doubt about who owns it.

Fascinating isn't it, the Scots (well the cesationists anyway) insist on thier right to independence, but seem to think the Islanders have no similar right.

Hey up, we'll have none of that logic stuff creeping into this thread, thank you very much!

Labour don't want it.
Gordo doesn't want it.

It MUST be good.

I thought they were all into "devolution" anyway, or is it only on their terms.

The Straw Man argument. I have never said any such thing, nor has any Scottish secessionist that I know (and I probably know more than you do).

So if you do ever hear someone say that, go ahead and pick them up on it, but leave it out of the general argument, please.

Surely that is implicit to the argument that Scotland gets the oil revenues? If the islands are allowed to secede and join the Scandinavians then the Danes and Norwegians will get all the money. Also the Shetlanders will get much improved social services to say the least.
