I'm sure a lot of the drive for complete Scottish independence is driven emotionally. I like to play Scottish folk songs on my guitar, and not a few of them are emotional appeals to the past.... William Wallace, Bonny Prince Charlie, and independence from England.

"Bonnie Prince Charlie" never fought for an independent Scotland. As a Stewart he wanted on the throne of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and most Highland Scots supported him. Lowland Scots were more hostile to him than the English were.

That’s correct. He was the last hope of the Stuart’s to claim the throne. Some years ago I visited the Culloden Moor battlefield where his dreams were dashed.

Technically, he wanted (or at least agreed to) restore legislative independence to Scotland by overturning the 1707 Act of Union and restoring the Scottish Parliament, going back to the personal union of 1603. Many of the Scottish Jacobites fought under flags that said ‘No Union’. Presumably, the English Jacobites who fought for him as part of the ‘Manchester Regiment’ didn’t really care either way.

Might have been a moot point however, as a Stewart who believed in the ‘divine right of Kings’ he, would have turned the clock back on Constitutional Monarchy and ruled more like a continental absolutist monarch.
