Should Scotland stay in the UK?

[Dia bando]

I feel independence would not be of any benefit to Scotland, or the rest of the UK trouble is
regional politics the Tory strong hold is the south east of the uk.
The Tory party does not exist in Scotland, and we have very few of the twats in Wales, so
in regions were there are not any Scotland, feel like they don't want to be governed by them.

I a not sure how much oil is actually in what would be scottish waters, I dont think it is enough to keep a country going and I am not sure what scotland can do to become a self running country, we dont really make anything and only export whisky really :S..

I'm going to vote yes in the referendum.

Sean Connery says for Independence. Good man. The former Bond lest we forget.

Is this Connery, the women beating patriot whom doesn't live in Scotland?

That's the long and short of it Kirkland, the oil won't last forever and somebody has to pay their dole.

Have you never punched a man? Why make differentiation based on gender lines? Are you a feminist? Sean Connery was James Bond. JAMES BOND!

I've punched men in a boxing ring and a couple of times outside of the ring in defence when physically attacked.

I'd never assualt a physically weaker person (which a woman almost always is, I am not differentiating based on a mere arbitory gender status) due to a verbal argument and I never will, to do so would mean a complete lack of self control and morals on my part.

For example I'd no sooner give you a good beating than I would a woman.

I only say Woman beater because Connery never confessed to or endorsed giving the elderly, frail or infirm a slap to put them in line... Just woman, which would make him a woman beater?

Hope this helps.

Connery ? A Jock bond ? You call yourself camp and witty and Ghey and you prefer Connery over Roger Moore.

Also nice to see you return only to never change and continue in your dictatorial, facist way. Even Englishmen living in England have no say which on way Scotland will vote and yet you want your opinion from South Korea to be taken into account. The Queen has no say and yet apparently she is a cunt and you are not. Hmmmm ?....

Strange posts, GB.

I want what's best for the people of the UK and that means the Scots get their freedom. Unlike the Queen, I do not try to keep people hostage with nonsense babies and blackmail. It is about the values. There are no values with a monarchy and a Tory government. Free healthcare and education are British values and if England fails, then England should fall. There is no mandate to destroy the welfare state and Scotland doesn't want to. Sell off the monarchy and hey presto, Britain has free education and healthcare for all permanently. It's the blinkers, take them off.

80% of north sea oil has already been extracted. The remaining 20% will cost increasing amounts of cash to extract and won't provide the same revenue to an independent Scottish exchequer that the original 80% did to the British exchequer.

Once the oil runs out you've only got whisky and a vast number of unemployable neds drinking buckfast and creating another generation oflosers. You're much better off in the long run being permanently subsidised by the south of England.
