Independence For Scotland

 

Labour seem very worried that Scotland might get a Scottish Nationalist parliament in the elections in may. I'm not!

Scottish independence will undoubtedly be a good thing for England, both politically and economically.

For a start, the injustice that Scottish MPs at Westminster will not be able to vote on purely English issues. We also won't have to subsidise them any more and they'll have to raise their own money rather than pinching ours.

It is also very likely that Scotland's parliament will be very left wing and raise business taxes, which will drive solid Scottish companies to England.

So all in the all, if Scotland wants independence, I have no objection. It's just a pity that Ulster doesn't have the same enthusiasm for it.

Thank you for your kind words. It's just a pity I can't reply personally as you are anonymous.

Perhaps, you could name a few high tech Scottish companies formed in the last few years, that are going to provide the jobs for the future. It's funny but they all appear to be in the greater south-east of England.
