      So if the Scots choose to give their country away to Spain, a country that very openly admits that it wants Gibraltar back, and also public supports Argentina's claim to the Falklands, and the UK is the only thing standing in the way of both those things, and soon about half of the UK is going to be Spain, does that mean we ought to think about putting a few more bricks on top of Hadrian's wall?

            Nahhh Clueless! Just call the border reivers back into service. :)

            If the Scots re-build past connections with the French that'll probably keep the Spanish and everyone else away. :heehee:

            Ah, the Auld Alliance - that is probably forefront in Wee Eck's mind Sheal; no doubt he still believes in the old tosh that just having a Scottish accent somehow buys you credibility with other nations

              All wee eck wants is to be El First Presidento of SCOTIA, and to go down in History
              He wants to keep our Queen, and keep the pound, Scotland already has Devolution, and are offered Devo max later, So an indpendant Scotland would not change just the Presidento

              He is utterly off his trolley, with NO plan B for currency
              He has been told that if Scotland walk away then definitely no use of the POUND
              His reply "Then we will not pay one penny of our Debt to the UK"

              Now to put that in to context to the man in the street who is intending opening a new COMPANY who would now need to borrow money to start the new Company

              Excuse me pal, I am opening a new company and I need to borrow £1k, could you lend it to me,
              I did have a company last week, and I owed my pal £5k but I told him to stuff it I am not paying him back

              A rather slim chance of getting the loan he needs

                Or maybe Westminster is only worried about how the rest of the world will perceive England once/if Scotland gains independence? The UK has already been told it will devalue in the eyes of the world if that happens, and we wouldn't want to make Mr Cameron et al look foolish now would we?? It's added more credence to independence with Wales not been given any of the flood relief fund. Not an incentive to stay really, that

                  I believe all the best kit is north of the border.

                  But owned by the UK government, so they won't necessarily get to keep it.. Besides, would you trust that wee bam pot with nukes?

                  I wouldn't trust him with nukes, and as he's already demonstrated his attitude to UK assets when he so casually said he wouldn't pay his share of UK, I wouldn't trust him not to simply steal UK assets.
