    I think it's fair comment that large company investment and major government spending should look at the issue of potential Scottish independence as a risk factor, just as with other risks.

    The obvious first example is fracking.

    There are some great sites in England which should be exploited first. It's clear SNP sentiment for fracking is cool. I have no problem with energy generation reinvestment be redirected south of the border.

    So you're now adding bully to my other character trait as a name calling dismissive hater of Scots? 😀

    Biggest risk is currency. Be difficult for companies who depend on the UK for the vast majority of it's business. Even if the business remains Scottish registered. Creating a UK based operation is the logical step forward.

    You are showing the characteristics of one yes .... Of course you could've always said

    Sorry I meant no offence with the term Jock and will do my best not to use it again

    Instead you chose to continue your disrespectful attack on myself and the people of my country ....
