What I find interesting is that all we hear from Mrs. Krankie is a call for another referendum to give Scotland independence, yet so far I've not seen any hard proposals of how Scotland would manage its own affairs. I couldn't see any UK government allowing Scotland to enjoy any UK benefits, like the NHS for example, neither could I see Scotland being allowed to use the £ Sterling. Surely they would have to accept the Euro? There would clearly have to be a hard border between England and Scotland and these are only the high level issues. Goodness knows how many other issues would be lurking.Comment

YAWN.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Well, if Scotland don't want a hard border, then England will have to do it.
If Scotland don't want to restrict the movement of goods then England will have to do it.
And England will have to pay for it as well.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
