    Should Scotland be an independent country?

    Today marks the final countdown with one year remaining when the people of Scotland can answer that question! How exciting;-)

    "Yes Scotland chief Blair Jenkins, said: Scotland has generated more tax per head than the UK as whole in each and every one of the last 30 years.

    The question is, why more people in Scotland are not reaping the benefits of our wealth?"

    Let them begone and cease their incessant whining. WGAS if we get rid of a whole chunk of Labour voting spongers?
    Hard Brexit now!

      I think England should get a vote over whether Scotland should remain in the UK beforehand

      Then it would be interesting to compare the votes between the two...

        Was that independant research done by the Scottish parliament by any chance ?

          And how long will it take for Scotland to join either the European Union or the Schengen agreement? You will be stuck working in Scotland

            Let it become an independent country and then invade it and level the whole place.

              Agreed!

              We are never going to hear the end of this otherwise.

              Fook off Scotland! And get your own worthless currency, you ain't having our ENGLISH pounds!

              Scottish Lira sounds a good choice.

                Wouldn't it be a matter of public record?

                  Haven't done the maffs, but wouldn't it make elections more "interesting" for the Tories if it was England alone?
                  Currently it doesn't seem they can get a majority due to there being too many dumbed-down spongers.

                    Labour don't want this for this very reason. It's effectively giving Conservatives a head start with only the northern spongers voting for them, well, and Croydon.

                    More tax per person. I'd love to see how they wangled that stat, for there's higher unemployment in Scotland.
