What does Scotland have or produce that makes them think they are better off without GB?

Some oil and a history of hating England.

I was surprised at the vote. Was there a few weeks before the vote and pretty much all the yards signs were to leave.

Bottom line, they can’t afford their welfare state without England.

Very little, if anything.

Scotland has become a socialist nanny state, full of slackers and gubmint leeches. If they leave the UK, they'll likely fall into bankruptcy in no time flat.

Independence is a long held, romantic idea for the Scots, but leaving now, would be practically suicidal for them.

I hate to say that, as my family's ancient roots are there.
