What? So the UK should leave itself? How would that work?

Balls. This is quite right. An independent Scotland cannot expect to benefit from UK military orders if it is no longer in the UK.

Sovereign capability and all that.

Also, if you’d actually do some background (stunning I know), you;d actually see that the Clyde just got a reprieve in a bid to keep Scotland in the UK. Portsmouth (that’s in England) lost out, bringing an end to 500 years of shipbuilding in the city. But its for the greater good of the Union, so a good political decision.
