    Scotland has a very strong economy. It's just a question of how much it's going to be affected by the sudden structural shifts of being independent and whether a new government can ease that along well enough.

    It doesn't make any real sense economically, Scotland doesn't actually benefit from this at all. As far as Foreigner Reasons for opposing it go, a weaker UK means a stronger France and Germany so fuck that, and fuck the Scots for starting separatist bullshit in the West. Why not just give Moscow free reign to point at us and laugh. And if the Scots leave, who's next? The fucking Basque going to demand statehood?

    It does if you think Maggie and her heirs in evil Cameron and the Tories are destroying the UK.

    Lord, grant that Marshal Wade
    May by thy mighty aid
    Victory bring.
    May he sedition hush and like a torrent rush,
    Rebellious Scots to crush.
    God save the King.

    More seriously speaking... If Scotland wants to be independent, let it be. I'd give independence for Åland, if they want it. Or even let them join to Sweden, if they want it. But I also happily keep them as part of Finland, if they want it.

    Ah. I don't dispute their being able to choose. I just think it'd be a bad idea that they'd soon regret.

    Seceded Scotland weakens the UK which proves it's a further step in the Illuminati's master plan to establish a European Federation. Since I'm totally on board with that shit, let's go.

    He said it is unlikely that North Korea will seek to establish an embassy in Edinburgh – due to cost concerns – although he added that he expects Edinburgh to have a diplomatic presence in Pyongyang through the existing British Embassy.

    "I believe independence will be positive as it will encourage personal exchanges and provide both countries with business chances," said Choe. "North Korea is rich in natural resources and we like the taste of Scotch whisky, so we can be beneficial to each other."
