    So Nicola is demanding a referendum on independence with no accurate information on Scotland's financial position.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Who could be so dumb that they couldn't understand that being in a worse position than Greece is not a good thing? Oh and that the German's won't give a !!!! - they will still expect you to do austerity....

    Especially as Scotland's position has worsened so much since 2013. Revenues from oil have collapsed from £11 billion to zilch, nothing, nada...

    No No No.
    It can`t possibly be right that we are in a worse position than 2014.

    We are a giant country striding as a colossus over the rest of the European nations so much so that they will bend to our will or we will punish them be denying them our exports.

    Nicola's let the flood gates open, cue the howling at the moon from the indy support.

    Any the indy memes about £400bn+ being stolen by Westminster are doing the rounds again.

    Honestly, some people are as thick as a certain animals excrement.

    Surely you meant to post that on the Brexit thread as Scotland would like to remain in the EU.

    Then why did you post that drivel if you're educated about oil :undecided

    You will also know oil was never quoted as being the salvation but the cherry on top.
