LOL the whole "Scotland is a victim, we're not equal, we're not loved" line is an absolute joke!
Damn right you're not equal, Scots get the BEST deal than any other member of the union.
Frankly, you lot are a joke. Just F'off already.

Have you even read the link you provided? Yes I am still laughing. Even the partisan rag the Scotsman is, it even says there will be difficulties. We'll just have to wait and see, won't we.
I have not said in any of my posts about England funding Scottish infrastructure, but, with the debt Miss Sturgeon is piling up building it, it will have to come from somewhere eventually. Where is it going to come from, especially if you're going to be an independent nation? Hmmm?

Has she demanded the election be done again yet?
Deputy First Minister John Swinney admitted that the issue of a second referendum on Scottish independence had played a "significant" role in the result. The SNP MSP told the BBC: "We will take time and care to reflect on the outcome of this result. But we have to acknowledge that the question of a second independence was a significant motivator of votes against the SNP in this election, and we have to be attentive to that point."

Never said indy supporters, I said "you boys and girls" meaning Scotland - sorry for the confusion.
Alex Salmond lost to the Tories in Gordon
Angus Robertson lost to the Tories in Moray
John Nicolson lost to the Lib Dems in East Dunbartonshire
Kirsten Oswald lost to the Tories in East Renfrewshire
Richard Arkless lost to the Tories in Dumfries and Galloway
Eilidh Whiteford lost to the Tories in Banff and Buchan
Steven Paterson lost to the Tories in Stirling
Stuart Donaldson lost to the Tories in Aberdeenshire West and Kincardine
Calum Kerr lost to the Tories in Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk
Callum McCaig lost to the Tories in Aberdeen South
Corri Wilson lost in to the Tories in Ayrshire, Carrick and Cumnock
Tasmina Ahmed-Sheikh to the Tories lost in Ochil and South Perthshire
Mike Weir lost to the Tories in Angus
Judging by other losses, looks like I was right after all. Doesn't look like Edinburgh and Aberdeen fancied paying the benefits for Glasgow all alone.
RIP #indyref2

Rescue of Tyranny.?? Maybe before you took the queens shilling you should have had a wee look at the Tyranny imposed by the British army on countless nations for centuries..I'm pretty sure the Yanks and Irish dont see the British Army as as liberators from a tyranny. Pretty much the opposite..And i'm pretty sure most of the middle east feels the same way.
Speaking as a ex Soldier myself i have no great love for the Queen and country bull#.
