How do you not have that though? Like Zee says Scotland have by far the most devolution of any of the constituent countries, plus Scots have historically been very well represented at Westminster and in government cabinets. And in any case we are all the same country which is the UK, and judging by all opinion polls there is a very solid majority of Scots in favour of keeping it that way

Salmond is an Arsehole with a capital "A" he speaks for himself, NOT for the majority of Scots, AND he will not get his way in his dumb referendum.

Edit: Wee fat Eck has delusional dreams of "being a player" on the World's stage. Puir wee bastid!

Because if there are resources on the Island they should be shared, once independent there might be those who are less willing to share.

If we were independent, the revenue from oil would stay in Scotland rather than be handed to Westminster for them to hand back out as they see fit.

See, you're not even independent yet and it's 'us and them'...
Why wouldn't you?...
