Should Scotland be an independent country?

Should Scotland be an independent country?

  • Total voters
    132
  • Poll closed .
A reminder that Hadrian's Wall was almost certainly not built to keep the Scots out of England but to enforce customs tariffs...
 
Even the Romans didn’t envisage one in the Irish Sea which is what a British Govt is proposing between the loyal British subjects of Northern Ireland -against their wishes-
and the rest of The Precious Union.
 
It’s become a useful holding pen for a tiny number of seething tomatoes who don’t actually vote in Scotland, to the relief of other threads

Sort of mirrors all the windbags who don't vote in the UK blathering on in the election and Brexit threads.

Based on the poll here, though....it would be beneficial to the cause if we were allowed to vote for independence in Scotland. As mentioned, I support it and not for the reasons you would likely accuse me of. You not up for taking a bit of rough with the smooth?

I still have not worked out what small-country niche Scoland would have, though. It's easy to see how Norway, Iceland and Switzerland prosper. Not so clear to me with Scotland.
 
Yes, the nationalists haven’t made clear how Scotland will prosper outside the UK, just a load of babble about joining the EU. It seems the grand plan if Scotland goes it alone is to be a net taker of handouts from the EU instead of England. I doubt the EU will be quite so generous.

Sadly, independence needs to happen for the penny to drop with the seething nationalists.
 
You seem obsessed with food, Hugh.

How about this for a tasty snack between munchy boxes? Exciting, eh... :D

Available in hospitals in Scotland, apparently. When you scarper the UK obesity epidemic is going to drop significantly.

The £1.50 “heart attack on a plate” is crammed with bacon, sausage, black pudding, beans and an egg. It is available at the takeaway counter of a shop in Ninewells Hospital, Dundee.

Easy solve. If Scotland kisses Apple’s ass (they’re not exactly Russia) the porn queen of consumer tech wet dreams will happily draw borders around the country with their map app.

That is not "hospital food" as in on the menus for patients, it was sold by an independent take away selling to the public in the hospital foyer. Nice try though...
Don't you wish it was 2014 all over again, like the article you've posted? How different things might have turned out with just a smidgeon of accuracy in matters political...

I know. I read it.

Clearly not Brian. You put "Served in hospitals in Scotland".
For accuracy's sake it should be sold not served and hospital singular.
...but ye know, crack on laddie

I know that too.

I updated it. Anything to cut your whinging on.
