Uhhh why?
We could make a fortune on selling them water!
We could do it and we have the gear and the will, i say follow ireland's lead!

Err, we wouldn't make that much money from our water. Oh, and if we were to drive the price up then they'd just buy it from the North of England.
We are in a much better economical situation being in the Union.

Always been the way, half the scots side with the English against their own, thats why where like the Irish, more of us live in overseas than in our own country...

Some of us have more sense than pride.
In the long term economical situation our economy would be probably on par with that of Estonia or Latvia. United we're a world power and we both pay our way and are paid for by the British Government.
Idealism doesn't put bread on the table.

Scotland tried it before, numerous times, and it didnt work then and it woyuldnt work now. So are you going to start blowing up Kids and old Women like PIRA because your pride is hurt?
Get a bloody grip man. England lost old regiments as well. The Defence Minister is a dick, we all know it. They have had this in the works for a long time. No body likes it, I mourn the loss of the Scottish Regiments but whats done is done.

Look i know i would feel the same if they had joined all Englands Regiments, i do understand.
But they have done it now and the loss of the Black Watch alone is a bloody discrace. Our armed forces are at the mercy of these idiots and as usual its poor bloody tommy that gets shafted. Thats nothing new. They will adapt and carry on as the fine Soldiers that they are. In a Hundred years Scotland will be as proud of this Regiment as they are proud of the ones they have lost.
