Which solves the problem from the last referendum of which currency they would use, provides jobs to local workers, and the Scottish Parliament are actively encouraging and supporting FoM so that won’t be a problem (not to mention that it would provide FoM for Scottish people throughout the rest of the EU).
Not quite thought this through, have you?
So essentially things are much the same as they would have been in 2014. Remind me, how did THAT once-in-a-generation vote play out?

“The period of the disintegration of the European Union has begun. And the first vessel to have departed is Britain”

Not the same at all. There was no suggestion of any EU “fleet” in 2014, and FoM was a given back then - there was no threat that it was going to be removed.
Plus, of course, there’s the major difference of the impression that England is forcing Scotland to leave the EU against it’s wishes.
I don’t have a particular drum to beat in this either way, but you can hardly say that it is the same as 2014.
Nobody says England won't trade with Scotland. That is just your Brexiteer style self pitying paranoia talking (aka talking nonsense). However, an independent Scotland in the EU may End up with a hard border with England.
They do and have said it actually. A threat that we would lose our biggest trading partner. I agree that its nonsense to say that.
We would be in the EU so would have the same trading arrangements as the rest of the EU with rUK.
We might have a hard border if rUK has a no deal with the EU. If they have some sort of customs union with the EU then it won't be as necessary.
Not to mention a currency called the Euro, elements of the impending EU Nuclear fleet located at Faslane, and FOM just for starters.
Personally I'm not against the Euro but that myth that we would be forced to use it has been busted. e.g. Sweden is in the EU but hasn't started using the Euro.
