looks like Scotland might break away from the Union in the next few years. Thus breaking up Great Britain.

and if Salmond loses do you think it would end there?
scottish ppl would never vote for it, they know they need the uk
what if a scotsman convinced them to split and then conquer England, wales and NI?
Oh God I hope this happens so we can watch Scotland slowly deteriorate and laugh at them as the come crawling back.
And then we say "NO!" and re-erect Hadrian's Wall.

Yes! ![]()
that would be a disaster. anyone with a sound mind can see the pound is a very strong form of currency
it would depend on how integrated the Scottish economy is with the rest of the UK... is it possible it has more trade with the eurozone
anyway from a historical perspective Scotland has always been closer to the rest of the EU than to England, possibly just out of spite tho ![]()
Scotland's primary exports are Irn Bru [sic] and heart disease. It has little in the way of other exporting products.
Scotland also does well out of Westminster. The new warships and carriers the UK have ordered are being built there and Westminster funds a lot of the social policies the Scots take for granted.
Whether they leave or go isn't up to me, nor do I particularly care. But if they do leave the Union, Scotland will end up paying for it in money and job losses.
