How stupid and superficial are these independence referendum discussions? She said this and we can have it as soon as possible, he said yes but didn’t mean now. Who the hell are these simpletons?

There are some big issues to think about before anybody gallops towards the polls.

What are we going to do with our Armed Services?
What are we going to do with our Nuclear Weapons?
What are we going to do with our Nuclear Power Stations?
What are we going to do about NATO?
What are we going to do about the UK position on the UN Security Council?
What are we going to do about the UK position in the World Order?
What are we going to do about the Commonwealth?


I’m sick of people treating this issue as something that only affects the people living in Scotland. What about all the Scottish people living in England, don’t they get a say in what happens in their Motherland? What about the rest of the UK? Don’t we get a chance to air our opinions on whether we want the United Kingdom to stay united?

We have done very well as a United Kingdom and England has benefited from the influx of labour, materials and services from Scotland, while Scotland has benefited from access to a free market for capital, goods and services.

However, every nation has a right to self-determination (apart from the un-represented English of course) and we should all respect the result of any democratic voting.

I for one would be very sorry to see Scotland leave the UK. I still think if Tony Blah Blah Blah had been half the man he thinks he is, we would have English MPs in the Houses of Parliament and UK MPs in the Upper House (no Lords required thanks). We could have been independent countries in a United Kingdom.
