As an Englishman, I can't wait for Scotland to gain it's independence. Scotland is a socialist pseudo-utopia that can't pay it's way and relies on $2000 of taxes from every English tax-payer a year to fund its' socialism.
Personally, I'm saving up bricks so we can rebuild Hadrians Wall and keep the socialists where they belong - in the cold! ;-)
You put it better than I.
The Scottish have fought alongside the English against Hitler and Napoleon.
However in today's tax-crushed England there will be a lot of dry eyes if they choose to "braveheart" their way out of the Union.
