    Please enlighten me. I'd love to fully know why your quest for #ScottishIndependence didn't work out in 2014.

      It is of course complicated, but in the space available
      * the tale that Scotlands would not be allowed to (re)join the UK by a UK (England) veto
      * the misrepresentation of Scottish Debt (I suggest you look at an accountants analysis) https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2023/08/16/gers-day/
      * A massive misrepresentation by the main street Media - from the BBC upwards or downwards
      * And of course a substantial number of people who still believe the Union is good for them

        GERS day
        from Richard Murphy
        For those in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, the acronym GERS is probably pretty meaningless. In Scotland, it is big enough that that annual publication of the Government Expenditure and Revenue Scotland statement is enough to give publication day its own name - GERSday. I admit that this blog may have...

      @AnthonyFStevens @Theriac @CloudyMrs @soren you should catch up with the derailed proposals the Scottish government put up against ‘project fear’. The Unionist objections were almost as risible as the Brexit campaign.

      It's the untangling & the aftermath which needs to be clarified. Unfortunately, the average person in England really wouldn't be arsed.

      Most would merely give a shoulder shrug if the #Scots gained independence, as it'll have little material difference on our lives beyond supplies of Irn Bru, & Megan's beer. 🍺

      @AnthonyFStevens @Theriac @CloudyMrs @soren btw - what constitutional nightmare? Yes lots of technical untangling, but as Scotland has a separate legal system..

      Is that the grass-roots of the #Labour Party, or those at the top facing a constitutional nightmare if #Scotland did vote for independence?

      Trust me, #ScottishIndependence has never been mentioned to me by anyone apart from Scots. 🤷🏾♂️

      @Wen @Theriac @CloudyMrs @soren

      To be fair, South of the border, no one cares about #ScottishIndependence or a united #Ireland. I think most people wish both would happen so we don't have to hear about it any longer.

      It's the ruling class unionists who still hanker for the colonial empire, & keeping Scotland & North Ireland under English rule. It's never been a major issue for the average person in England, hence why I think most would support the #Irish & the #Scots if given the chance.

      @Theriac @AnthonyFStevens @CloudyMrs @soren well said. Too much gets assumed south of the border. Arrogance and ignorance.
