Ah yes the mighty Scots fleet would keep Jock and his apprentice busy for about a fortnight I reckon. 😀
Not just defence spending of course, can't see the Student Loans Company or Skytv hanging around in a foreign country for too long post independence.

You're confusing hatred with realism, are you sure you're from Plymouth?
The possibility of private companies relocating and the loss of UK public sector jobs was a big factor in the failure of the YES campaign in my view. All part of the failure of the SNP to make the economic case for independence I suppose.

Well it says Plymouth on my birth certificate ... and its a real one so yep i'm English

I was ofcourse referring to your silly name calling your usual dismissal ... but hey i'm sure you were just having a laugh and really the Scots need to get a sense of humour and stop hating the English cause apparently we do

Name calling...really?
Surely if you can stray into flippancy, than I can also?
To my recollection I've never said the Scots hate the English. I do believe that within most if not all SNP supporters there is a finely honed antipathy toward the English, not helped by the tactics employed by the SNP hierarchy.

Most nationalists are racists too. Good to hear the SNP are exceptions.

Nothing new. Just repackaged. The ideals remain the same as when the party was formed in the 30's.

Don't be offended, if an English person can be vicariously offended by the use of the Scottish 'everyman' term Jock of course. 😀
