This is being put about by the SNP, it is their form of CRT. Each Scot is subsidised to the tune of over £2,000 a year by English taxpayers. Scot does not produce enough to make it as an Independent nation. If youthe average Englander if he agrees with the Scots leaving the Union he will tell you, no - we would rather kick them out. Joke: the Irish gave bagpipes to the Scots as a joke, the Scots took it seriously.
I apologize to any Scots I may have offended. Like the Scots who live in England and persist in telling us how great Scotland is, our only comeback is, If Scotland is so bloody great - what the hell are you still doing here?
In the UK, it appears the Scots and the Welsh get at least a partial exemption for white guilt due to past oppression by the English. The St. George flag is considered bigoted, while the Scottish and Welsh flags fly freely. It is a goal of the New World Order to encourage dissension and the ultimate weakening of strong nation states.
