Reposting this from the last thread because I thought it was very eloquently put. Some user on Scottish devolution:
The next logical step is more devolution or worse, Independence. For several 100 years Scotland as been an equal member in Westminster, we have approximately 7.8% of the population of the United Kingdom in Scotland and yet we get 9% of the seats in Parliament. For these 100's of years the Monarch of the UK can trace it's heritage back to James the VI of Scotland, who became king of England at their request, it was he that started the ball rolling in joining the parliaments, which was completed more or less by his grandson.
What does this mean for us today? Scotland has stood with the United Kingdom for centuries, we have shaped the country and we have shared our history and our accomplishments, we are a separate country only in history pre 1700's and in you could argue even further back to the pre 1600's. We built the ships that fuelled the Empire, that sailed against France and Spain. We sent our poor out into the world and colonised the anglosphere, our borders are irrelevant and only an imaginary line in maps. Our economics are intertwined and inseparable from each other, even as an independent nation the SNP have stated we'd keep the monarchy, we'd keep the pound, we'd share our military and ship building. It's all nonsense and signs of a deluded mind. If Scotland ever splits from the Union it will drag both countries into decades of chaos and in the end it will be Scotland that suffers, no industry, no money and no heritage of it's own since the 1500's. Pathetic and pointless.
What's more, why stop at independence for Scotland? Shetland and Orkney both would prefer to be dependencies of the UK rather than be part of an Independent Scotland, would we support their devolution or referendums? No of course we wouldn't because without the oil terminal on shetland what little oil revenue we have left would be even more greatly diminshed.

Union Flag is inherently anti-White crap. Under that garbage flag countless Scots, Welshmen and even filthy Anglos died just to make some inbred German cunts and corporatists richer. One day Scotland will become a Free Country with elected King, firearms for loyal citizens, eugenics, nuclear deterrent, Scottish silver backed pound, darkies, anglos and jews would be banned and expelled. While England and degenerate Anglo race would be no more. Maybe Wales and Northern Ireland would get the Scottish compassion, if they are to pledge loyalty to Alba!
Been sat in the hospital all night and day as my brother has been diagnosed with cancer. Thought he was just ill but things are looking bad, I've never seen him like this.
He basically had a fit right in front of me, the nurses etc wouldn't have even known if I wasn't there at fucking 4am watching over like a hawk.
It seems sad, but after all the support from my friends and family I feel this place is a beacon of light in the long night. If you can spare some (yous) it would make me feel something.

What's wrong with independence?
You can make your own laws. You can govern yourself.
SNP independence is moronic. But independence itself isn't (IMO).

My brother and I are currently on holiday from university. At about 3am last night he asked if he could have my bottle of Crabbie's. I said yes if he would get me another the following day along with some Freddos, as people are always harping on about them here.
So he just bought me a whole pack, but he doesn't remember the price.

So lads be honest, which community is the most responsible for for stoking Protestant-Catholic sectarianism?
Who are the bigger hooligans; Rangers or Celtic? Are Norn Iron Nationalist uppity cunts, or oppressed minorities of Loyalist tyranny?

This, right now, is the silly season, and the end of August and the beginning of September is the quietest time in British politics.
It's only going to get more and more active from here out, hence why Russian and Irish shitposters get (you)'s, come the recall of parliament it's going to be all news all the time

Hunter Cruz
No you're not.
You can't control taxation. You don't have a Military. You can't control immigration. You don't have your own currency. You don't have a Prime Minister.
Scotland is not independent.
Federalism would make Scotland more autonomous but still under Westminister Law.

>What is the United Kingdom the post Scots born in Scotland might be Ethnically Scottish but they are British Citizens. This is the point that fucking retarded so called Scottish "Nationals" don't understand. We are British, not Scottish. Scotland only got it's parliament in 1999 for fucksake after a Scottish King joined his parliament with England's in the fucking 1700's. Retarded people like you are cancer at the heart of one of the greatest countries the earth has ever seen.
Luis Taylor
Seconded. The voting age needs to be raised.

I'd say the protestants are far more outspoken and angry nowadays though the Catholics seem to be sneaky, and do things to annoy the protestant, but act all innocent when the protestant acts out. Like an annoying little sister.

Westminster law that was co-create by Scots. Scotland was not conquered, we created the union with the English. Independence diminishes the United Kingdom and turns Scotland into a third world country, worse than anything the EU has. Independence from what? Our own country? You're fucking retarded
Nathan Price
We've got confirmation that May will trigger it without parliamentary vote.
She will also want to avoid pissing of the extremely prominent Brexit cabinet members- there are enough Brexit MP's in the tory party to crash the government at any time. Hence she won't want to delay past April 2017, with it probably occurring in January.
Kayden Adams
Can't wait for these faggots to have their hundreds of billions of unfunded costs dragged before Neil.
Tyler Jackson
Never. May is planning on stalling it until the next general election, another election will happen and everyone who voted Remain will vote for the party that doesn't want us to leave.
Cue potential civil war if that happens.
Blake Reyes
(You) Best wishes to you and your brother. God bless. I lost my wife in a car crash in 2012. She was alive for a couple of days afterwards and slipped in and out of consciousness. She spoke to me and our kids before she went. I send you and your brother my prayers and best wishes. You must stay strong.
