Fair enough let them have it

Once they realise how miserable it is I'm not sure they'd want it.

If we were to value Scotland what would a fair price be?

It might just have been the ravings of a swivel eyed UKIP MP, but I seem to recall that if you take the North Sea out of the equation Scotland is a net cost to the UK, so it might be a positive to get rid of it whilst there is some oil left.

EDIT/ a bit like Hong Kong- we could give the Chinese a 100 year lease.

The xenephobic fuck ends like you lot I encounter in daily life go a long way to making life down here deeply unpleasant.

If you were trying to sell England (which based on Cameron's hapless governance and continued Thatcherite fixation on revenue from the City rather than any form of production might be necessary when market collapse arrives) you'd have to give any potential buyer a significant discount per gormless Jeremy Clarkson wannabe in the country, most likely resulting in a deficit larger than any Scotland has managed to run up.

Cunts.
