Is Scottish independence a 'good or bad' thing?

The SNP have openly accused the unionist parties of not having Scottish interests at heart. You can therefore conclude that they think they are the only party that would be elected.

It really annoys me that Scots falsely link independence to Salmond and the SNP. What about voting out the SNP in an independent Scotland? Scottish representation is about 8 or 9%, as there are 650 MP's in Westminster, but only 59 Scottish. So Scottish MP's are in a tiny minority.

And you believe them? Gordon Brown did not let Scotland have any more devolved powers when he was PM. I just don't believe what Westminster parties say any more. It is all lies to get us to stay in the union. It is time for Scotland to stand on its own two feet.

The UK government has not been declared bankrupt and has not been in danger of defaulting like the USA has-ergo it is not bankrupt.

There is also far more to our economy than oil. Far more.

Lol, Personally I find how the unionists are intent on shutting down the debate. Trivial discussion on mobile phone tariffs, economic minutae, passports, border controls, EU and veto nonsense, tuition fees.. Demonise personalities and reduce it to namecalling in order to turn the electorate off. They know they cant persuade the "dont knows" so the tactic is to keep them as "dont knows" otherwise we would have had a "White Paper" alternative from Better Together.

Do you want to be part of Cameron's Big Society, increasingly xenophobix, increasingly anti-europe and increasingly idealogical in it's pursuit of the Elitist social structure. Or do you want to be part of something different. This vote isnt about what is good for us right now, its about what kind of society we want for our children and grandchildren.

It's bad. Nothing good will come of it, especially for Scotland. Also I dislike Alex Salmond.

Salmonds campaign is based on nothing but lies and fudged figures, he hates England so much he would destroy his own country to be away from it. He is openly racist and gets away with it and even encourages racism in his supporters.

Lol, whilst using the £ and having no say on its interest rates? Yeh, that is really standing on its own 2 feet

Those countries don't spend money they don't have. They avoided the financial crisis.

I actually don't agree with the SNP on that. But I accept their arguments for a currency union. The only thing I don't like is being tied to the Bank of England. But you can't have it both ways.

Yes, those evil torries being anti-EU and pro democracy! How dare they! An independent Scotland can be rules by Brussels if you would like and not even have a boarder, why not let everyone in the world in, from USA, the EU, Africa, Asia, let them all in!

Meanwhile the rest of the UK can survive fine with comparable social cohesion and low crime rates, enoy!

ffs, I found the debt levels you said that don't exist.

Can you now find their public surplus'? If not I'll have to find out their deficits and its a bore finding info out for you.

Disagree with that. An independent Scotland will enjoy that; not the rest of the UK post-independence.

Do you find reading difficult?

Which lies? Cite your sources.

Let's talk about others lying shall we, while we're at it..

Recently, David Cameron was caught out last week when he falsely claimed in a Conservative Party political broadcast that the coalition was "paying down Britain's debts"

I should add that the UK Government don't care that the oil money is being spent; just as long as the Scots don't get their hands on it, and they will lose this when Scots get independence. No more oil tax receipts for London.

Then the country would not be standing on its own feet, if you want independence do it properly, otherwise its like a child moving away from th house of mum and dad, saying how brave and independent the yare and then calling home every weekend asking for money.
