Yes a very bias report. I have no issues with Scotland going alone, but Scotland should keep the Darien scheme in mind.
Scotland does not own ALL the North Sea oil as things currently stand. Some of it is in English waters. So why should calculations be done based on it claiming England's oil?
Controversy persists about a claimed "tweaking" of the maritime border between England and Scotland in the 1960s, the border being altered in Scotland's favor. The English were not consulted. Concerns about this issue must be addressed.
Or what about if the Orkney Islands claimed independence, hell that would see alot of Scottish Oil gone? but i guess you wouldn't have an issue with that.
The list goes on. All the talk about the English keeping the Scottish down just to keep control is aload of crap, conspiracy theorists. If we were keeping Scotland in poverty why would we spend so much more money on the health service and education than we do in any other part of the UK, including England?
