Not an expert then, you don’t know, duh.EV's question was specifically about what happens after Scottish independence. So not now, duh.

Majoritarian argument for independence here.Good Morning All,
As Scotland only represents what, 8.8%, of the UK population do they matter nationally? As this may provoke a strong response in some quarters I would like to point out that we have lived up here for 20 years......

Ever closer union with Boris. As Frankie Boyle put it- it’s like being handcuffed to a masturbating gorilla.Supporting Brexit’s slow arc toward its inevitable endgame is an interesting lifestyle choice.
What do those two sentences even mean? Are you able to explain?Good Morning All,

It’s nothing to do with economics, for me.Ask it another way.
If Scotland has such a large deficit to the UK economy and is therefore of very little economic value, from the perspective of the rest of the UK, what is the incentive to keep it within the fold?
From a business perspective, a financially sound company would look to divest themselves of an asset that wasn't performing well financially; had little strategic value to the business and they had no plan/appetite to turn that asset around. They would welcome an approach from a management buy-out team or an alternative conglomerate who could see the value in that asset and were prepared to plan and invest to see the asset develop.
Please insert 'UK', 'Scotland', 'SNP' and 'Europe' wherever you see fit.
Again, please use examples.It’s nothing to do with economics, for me.
The opinions and general dislike of the English apparent in a small number of the members here is sickening, tbh.
Feeling paranoid? Again, discussing points properly will reduce the chances of you being misunderstood, disparaging posts and cartoons don’t create a good impression.Again, please use examples.
Should the discussion be not so much about Scottish independence but rather does the rest of the UK want to keep it particularly if the argument is that it is costing them money?

Where is the racism?If it takes this sort of racism to make independence happen then I'm all for it.
Brexiter calls for experts while dismissing possibility of referendum. Love it.Not an expert then, you don’t know, duh.
Assuming you refer to me since you quoted my post...Brexiter calls for experts while dismissing possibility of referendum. Love it.
Another morning and another missed opportunity to engage properly and post your case for independence. There’s a reason for this and it’s to do with there being no genuine case, unless an emotional one counts. I can’t imagine what that emotion may be though. Can you help me there, Hugh?it’s the double bind that interests me- you’re a drain on us but you cant leave. Epitomised nicely in The Telegraph today,
“England must call Nicola Sturgeon's bluff - Scotland is doomed without the Union”.
There’s a reason for this and it’s nothing instrinsically to do with Scotland.
