Take oil out of the equation, most of which arguably belongs to Shetland anyway, and I believe that Scotland as an independent nation would be struggling with the likes of our current First Minister at the helm. Nothing desperate about not liking the SNP and/or Sturgeon at all as I do have the vote you know!? 😅
TBH I don't give a flying fuuck how Scotland is perceived in England tho I suspect its what the Unionist MSM tell them... particularly the completely impartial BBC. Oil ? but didn't you lot tell us it was running out in 2013/14 ? so we don't need to take that out of the equation ..do we ! Ireland (like Shetland) don't own a drop of oil but yet is one of the most prosperous and happiest in the world ! Even the poorest Irish have a standard of living 63% higher than the UKs poorest. But this post like your first the concept of Independence has gone right over your head. Whooooooosh...
