Might not be for long.

Would be best if it were after the next priministerial election since Scottland is full of Labour voters so we might knock the Tories of their high horse.

Wasn't that already the case? Apparently up there, Conservative MPs are more endangered than Ospreys.

True, but this would probably make the process even faster.

Going to sh** en rapide.

Until we get Independence, then it will soar above the rest of the sh**ty EU
scotland is not a real country! you are an englishman with a dress!

Whether or not something is a country is not dictated by personal choice. England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales are all classed as countries and are part of the United Kingdom (well, saying that, technically only northern Ireland is part of the UK). Also a kilt is not a dress. A kilt is a kilt, hence why it is called a kilt. Also, if I remember correctly, a dress is one that covers the whole body, a skirt is what only covers the lower half. Even then, kilt =/= skirt. Kilt=kilt, skirt=skirt, dress=dress.

Also, 'Scotland' requires a capital letter, as does 'Englishman'
i was trolling, calm down.

On the actual topic, Netherlands.. Not that great. sh**ty laws even make it so that you can get punished for defending yourself. Mostly retarded politics that get to say stuff. ****ed up education.
Area I live, the rest of NL doesn't give sh** about it and just has multiple powerplants placed here and other stuff like some big factory that works with chemicals and burns up a lot of waste. The air in my area, well it can't possibly be any form of healthy (maybe most polluted part of NL).
And despite all that sh**, I still wouldn't want to leave.

I know, I was bored and wanted to see if I could come up with something that worked in case I see someone who seriously thinks like that.
Yes that sequence of words I just said made perfect sense.

Here's the closer on that argument

Scotland is charged a different rate of postal to England. Beyond that, there is classification of "Mainland UK" and "North Scotland"

Something else I didn't know until a few months ago, is that if you set up a wind turbine in Scotland, then no matter where in the country the electricity it generates is going, you'll be charged the same transmission fees as if it was going all the way to London. Why that is, I have absolutely no idea.

Don't forget about Northern Ireland. Although when it all inevitably splits up, I wonder whether they will change the name to something other than the British Isles. Then again, I don't really care, I am sure that both countries will find something wrong with being separate. It will either go horribly wrong, or just about alright. It's just a good thing that the USA hasn't decided to try to all be separate yet. If that happened, I'm pretty sure that sh** would hit the fan hard and fast.

That happened in the 1860's when when had this little thing called the Civil War.
