It seems that Scots can't answer a question without restorting to abuse?
Sad really shows a lack of education

What makes you think the English can live independently of Scotland ( or Ireland and Wales for that matter)? They would be left to pay for their obscene Trident missiles as well as finding somewhere to park them because we do not want them here. When troops are being sent to Afghanistan, look somewhere else other than Scotland - enough Scottish blood has been spilt for English warmongering. And North Sea oil cannot be ignored although you would like to ignore the theft of this resource from the Scottish people.
Roll on independence - we'll manage fine without you, don't you worry.

"Theres more tax raised from petrol and diesel in England"!!
You state that as if you are proud of it?
Where is all this raised tax going from the oil you stole from us?
All this debate is a waste, Scotland will very soon be independent , N Ireland will get their bit of land (that England stole returned to the Irish people , and become re united! Wales will soon follow suit.
UK ??? What was that??
The description 'Despots' springs to mind when ever I think of England.
Enjoy your power while you can, you will soon be all on your own!
The United Kingdom of England, that sounds good to me, there are rumours that USA are all ready looking into buying England and turning it into a sort of tourist spot like a type of Disney land, give all the English a horse and lance , plenty of Morris dancers there already , prancing about like large fat fairies trying to wrap a few ribbons around a barbers pole.
We will come visit from Scotland Ireland and Wales, when the USA has it up and running, throw a few coins your way!! Yipeeeeeee!!
Hope this helps??

It is not easy to understand the Scots/English thing.
However There are Scots/British Welsh/British English/British
Everyone of the countries can live without England, but England cannot manage to be English it needs to think of itself and British when its English!

To be forced to live together with the English have cost the Scots 1000 and 1000 of lives.
The English king started wars against the Scots just to have money into his own purse.
Don't worry they will manage to run their country by them self and secondly the Scots have more in common with Scandinavians then with the English and there is plenty of rooms for the Scots in the Scandinavian hearts.

I don't pretend to know what you are talking about... but what I do know is that there are massive oil deposits in the North Sea (I work for Noble Drilling our 3rd largest division is in the North Sea), in fact behind the M.E. and the Gulf of Mexico it is the largest offshore oil deposit in world... a country the size of Scotland could probably do pretty well with the revenue from the North Sea's oil deposits...

They can be if they want.
Their current politics under the SNP is top notch and their economy is strong. Their socialist ideas are GREAT, better than the Tory filth we have here, I admire the free university tuition and care for the elderly the most.
=] Bloody love Social Democracy.
Scotland has it well...
... At least our weather is slightly better.
