Devilbhoy,
My last post on this, Tony is right, this isn’t a forum for politics.
You have been brain washed by the media, the thing is you don’t even see it.
The daily put downs of Scotland by a country that’s trillions in debt and they make out the Scot’s are the scroungers.
You first have to realise Scotland only has 8.3% of the UK population, but they also have.
32% of the land, 61% of the sea area.
90% of the fresh water, 65% of natural gas production, 96.5% of crude oil production.
47% of open cast coal production, 62% of timber production, 92% of hydro electric production.
40% of wind, wave and solar production, 60% of dairy herd, 60% of fish landings.
100% of scotch whisky and 70% of gin production.
I could go on, but I can’t be bothered typing, Scotland is a small country with huge assets and a small population, if they were actually creating a deficit for the UK, I’m pretty sure they would be dumped and pronto.
I forgot to add they have the 4th largest financial services in Europe worth over £1 trillion and another 1.5 trillion of oil and gas reserves.
Don’t believe the nonsense you read in the media, it’s there to scare people from voting for independence.
