   It is the right of the Scottish people to determine our own future. Whether on EU membership, whether or not we want a monarchy, whether we want nukes on Scottish soil, whether we want to retain and expand our publicly owned NHS and more.
   Why should we vote to continue London rule and being told what we can and cannot do?

     @argv_minus_one @IndyRichard yea because who wouldn't want to be made a target without having any control over policy about retention, or god forbid, the use of such abominations? Sounds like a great deal.

     With all the extreme-right-wing rhetoric south of your border and World War 3 unfolding in the east, you all would be fools to *not* have nukes on your soil.

     Better than being invaded and conscripted into some foreign emperor's army, isn't it?

     @argv_minus_one @ginger_tosser @IndyRichard We don't have independence, and the Nukes aren't ours. We just get to be the target in case of war and the acceptable sacrifice in case of accident. There are no upsides.

     Indeed, and it's pretty hard to defend that independence against imperialistic aggression unless you have overwhelming firepower, i.e. nukes.

     I wish it were not so. I wish that imperialistic aggression of any kind were met by an overwhelming non-nuclear response from the entire rest of the world. But as Ukraine can attest, that is not the world we live in.

     @argv_minus_one @CloudyMrs @IndyRichard That’s exactly what has happened to Scotland. Hence the desire for independence.

     @CloudyMrs @argv_minus_one @ginger_tosser Would Scotland be in breach of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty if we tried to keep the nukes after independence? Not that we'd want these weapons on our soil in the first place.
