    At least eleven British prime ministers, including two so far this century, were born in Scotland or elsewhere of Scottish parents.

    That's some exploitation!

    Were they Scottish nationalists or Anglophiles ?

    If Scotland declares itself independent, it will be.

    Don't know about "Scotland", but the Scot Nats certainly have:


    The SNP believe that EU membership delivers many social, economic and cultural benefits for individuals, businesses and communities across Scotland. We believe that the best way to build a more prosperous and equal Scotland is to be a full independent member of the EU.

    That’s their OFFICIAL POLICY. Don't you believe them?

    UK ministers seek advice on whether Nicola Sturgeon's independence drive is UNLAWFUL - as First Minister faces new legal bid to stop SNP spending public money on indyref2

    Civil servants in the Scottish government have been allowed to help SNP ministers - but, now that the Supreme Court has ruled the policy area is reserved to Westminster, the policy may now be in question.

    UK ministers will demand 'urgent clarification' on whether it is lawful this week by writing to the permanent secretary of the Scottish government, John-Paul Marks, and are seeking Whitehall advice.
    It comes after five judges unanimously ruled in the Supreme Court last week that the Scottish Government cannot press ahead with a referendum without the consent of Westminster.
    It has emerged that 24 Government officials are working on the updated prospectus for independence, with their salaries costing up to £1.5million.

    Are you suggesting that is a problem?

    So the SNP is NOT seeking independence. They are seeking to give up their sovereignty to a government even further away than London.

    Science isn't facts.
    You don't know what 'fact' even means. Buzzword fallacy.

    No, actually Nordberg is right on this one. If Scotland declares itself independent, it will be. There is nothing London can do to stop that.
