    Why should Shetland and Orkney get special dispensation, why not Stornaway, and Mull to name but two others.

      The Western Isles are indeed sometimes included on that list.

        As someone already pointed out, they're all part of the Nation of Scotland.

        You guys must at least have heard of something called 'national identity' and 'national pride'.

        I swear, it's a great thing and goes way beyond cheering for the same football team.

          Either way, will be a win for Scotland
          Because it really pisses some Scots off!

            And if they ever let you in, EU rules would prevent anyone from setting fire to any of it. Even Scotland (the home of comedy cuisine) cannot find a culinary use for crude oil, so if you did achieve independence, it would be around 60 years too late.

              So, english are:

              scared of being left alone
              petty
              ...

              No wonder Scots want to break up with you

                    Shetland has been a part of the country of Scotland since the late 15th century, just as Scotland has been part of the nation state of Great Britain, then UK since 1707. Scotland has been it the union for longer than Shetland was in an independent Scotland. Shetland also deserves the right of self determination.

                      Oh don't you worry about that. Despite having plenty reasons for hating you, we're better than that. We're the bigger person in this relationship.

                      You're just an old girlfriend whom we don't love anymore and we want to get rid of but you keep clawing our legs and try to drag us down.

                      Enjoy our company until it lasts
