Not likely. The main reason for ppl to want independence is their hatred of all things English

These figures cannot be used to compare an independent Scotland. Much of this particular figures have been accrued in Westminster. I'll give you one example ..Defence Scotland's contribution is £3Bn but it only has £1.3 is spent in Scotland thus we have £1.7Bn added to our running costs. So the point I'm trying to get across is its totally ridiculous to ask how an Independent Scotland would deal with a £14Bn deficit because we would be in a completely different situation. Without being rude do you actually understand that Bodie. ?

Spin it how you want Stewarty, you lot are good at that. Scotland would have a massive deficit and we would be screwed.
And how phucking rude and condescending, I thought you were better than that :mad:

Scotland's deficit would be no bigger than the rest of the UK's and there is absolutely no reason whatsoever except blind bias to believe that Scotland would be 'screwed'

There is no reason or evidence to believe we would not be screwed.
And it's definitely not blind biased Jack

IQ27 is one of Nanny Nikki's little scotomatons who sit at keyboards all day spouting pre-fabricated propaganda from the Ministry of Truth. The fact he actually believes it is a bonus for them

Eh? Does the sky fall down every time you go out?
This is just so ridiculously unreasonable it is impossible to argue against.
Are you seriously trying to say, on a public message board, that Scotland and the Scots have neither the will nor the wit to manage their affairs?
That a nation of five million people are utterly incapable of managing their affairs?
Is every household in Scotland struggling under a mountain of debt because every member of the population is too stupid to even maintain a reasonable household budget?
This is, by far, the most insulting thing I have ever seen on this topic. It even beats the disgusting "Hamish" rubbish the huns come out with.
It is desperately sad that you have such a low opinion of your countrymen.
Yet you want to move down here - this country IS screwed because the Westminster government are utterly incapable of managing their budget and the deficit is spiralling out of control and rising every second.
It makes it even more insulting that you think Scotland cannot do a better job than the incompetent idiots in Westminster right now
