I have Jock relatives, they know all this believe me.
Won't happen.
So, you're saying they don't currently pay for pensions, defence etc? Trade tariffs will reduce when they rejoin the EU. Take a look at how much they pay Wastemonster each year. Look at what they get back. About 60% of what they pay in. That 40% goes towards pensions, defence etc and is also used to pay for purely English projects like Crossrail and HS2.

Most of the UKs renewables come from Scotland. Tell me why the Scots pay more for Leccy than you do.
