What a load of c**p. What about all the English that live in Scotland and are plating the Scottish pound, nicking our jobs and nicking our homes. I personally would never say such a thing about the English living in Scotland they know that it is a great place and as a Scot i am happy for them to reside there peacefully. You know nothing about Scotland and your attitude is exactly why Scots want to be separate from prejudiced, bigots like you. The Scottish Parliament was not paid for by English money, it was paid for by tax payers who are you guessed it Scottish too. What about that all the Scottish tax payers money that has been plowed into England for hundreds of years. Does that really sound independent of England. Look at your own country and politics and mind your own condescending business.

What the F**K are you talking about? Scots are nicking your jobs and your homes...you are an idiot! Are you pleased with your self that you are racist?
And you wonder why we want Independence...we want to separate ourselves from the small minded people that have a huge chip on their shoulder.
It's people like you that give the English the bad name they have. Did a Scottish bloke dump you? Get a life sweetie and move on!

We dont want independance? We run you don't we, check the birthplaces and education establishments of the cabinet. What we want is to give you English people their independance. Come on love, we are well known to be brighter and more popular than you lot and we have been propping you up for years, so its about time your wee country learned to stand on it's own two feet. Vote English Home Rule!!

a million. The king of Scotland did no longer "type the united kingdom" - it exchange into instituted in 1707 by potential of Act of Parliament. James I of england united the crowns of england and Scotland, something that Edward a million (Longshanks) had tried to do while Alexander II exchange into King of Scotland, and failed. 2. it is spelt "throne" 3. Scotland has by no potential been totally self reliant, and isn't any longer now self reliant.

Ok well im Scots and we are the ones who have to be the guinea pigs for your income law that you couldnt try out for yourself we have to be the ones who guinea pig the non smoking in public law first so basically as far as that goes it either shows that your a nation that have the ideas but are to lazy to put any actual work into seeing if they would work so you send it up to us
You are afraid to let a country have independence because we bring the strength to Great Britain and because you have lost most of your empire through mismanagement and greed your afraid to sit up and watch how it should be done
You fear that without us to drag down you will become nothing
also when one of our guys wins something in the olympics its thats another medal for Great Britain but when an english guy wins something you call it another medal for England

WHA'S LIKE US?
DAMN FEW AND THEY'RE A' DEID
The average englishman in the home he calls a castle, slips into his national costume - a shabby raincoat - patented by Charles Macintosh from Glasgow, Scotland.
En route to his place of work he strides along the english lane, surfaced by John Macadam of Ayr, Scotland.
He drives an english car fitted with tyres invented by John Boyd Dunlop, Veterinary Surgeon of Dreghorn, Scotland.
At the office he receives the mail bearing adhesive stamps invented by John Chalmers, Bookseller and Printer of Dundee, Scotland.
During the day he uses the telephone invented by Alexander Graham Bell, born in Edinburgh, Scotland. At home in the evening his daughter pedals her bicycle invented by Kirkpatrick Macmillan, Blacksmith of Thornhill, Dumfriesshire, Scotland.
He watches the news on T.V. an invention of John Logie Baird of Helensburgh, Scotland and hears about the U.S. Navy founded by John Paul Jones of Kirkbean, Scotland.
Nowhere can an englishman turn to escape the ingenuity of the Scots.
He has now been reminded too much of Scotland and in desperation he picks up the Bible, only to find that the first man mentioned in the good book is a Scot - King James VI - who authorised its translation.
He could take to drink but the Scots make the best in the world.
He could take a rifle and end it all but the breech-loading rifle was invented by Captain Patrick Ferguson of Pitfours, Scotland
If he escaped death, he could find himself on an operating table injected with Penecillin, discovered by Sir Alexander Fleming of Darvel, Scotland and given Chloroform, an anaesthetic discovered by Sir James Young Simpson, Obstetrician and Gynaecologist of Bathgate, Scotland.
Out of the anaesthetic he would find no comfort in learning that he was as safe as the Bank Of England founded by William Paterson of Dumfries, Scotland.
Perhaps the only remaining hope would be to get a transfusion of guid Scottish blood which would entitle him to ask -
"WHA'S LIKE US?"
BRITISH BY BIRTH, SCOTTISH BY THE GRACE OF GOD.

If 90% of Scots want independence then 90% of Scots are thick. I'm talking about native Scots, not those who live in England. Personally, I'm all for it. It'll save us a fortune. We've paid for their own parliament and better conditions for them than us. (Think student finance and long term health care for the elderly). Let's give them what they want and see if whisky & tourism pay the bills. I don't think so!

Rusty 100% behind you there! Personally if the scots want independence so be it although I'd prefer them in the union, divorce is painful.
