• Joking aside Skully, no-one ever has. Not USA, not India, not Ireland, not one single commonwealth nation - none have ever tried to repeal their independence from British Rule. It's a pretty telling history.

    My first 'sentence' was meant genuinely, my second flippant. I wholeheartedly support independence, no matter what people say about being left with a Tory perma-majority here (I don't believe that).

    I've not been following the debate, either the real one or the media circus, very closely ... Does Salmond's argument extend to having their own Monarchy again, or are they hoping to be a republic?

  • I've never met a Scots royalist in my life. The Scots by and large loathe the aristocracy with the sort of furious passion that could only ever be held by a people who have spent decades at the arse end of the economy, while rich cunts stroll in and out of their fancy country pads in St Andrews with nary a job created for the remnants of the industrial towns and cities that were casually destroyed by successive governments within living memory. Salmond would be laughed out of town if he proposed a monarchy.
