Would England be richer without Scotland? No, it would be poorer!
If Scotland voted for independence, would England be richer? Let's look at Scottish industries and what it contributes to the UK finances.

"In order to get Scottish independence, the pro-independence parties are going to have to be much more assertive, confrontational even, and ditch the pretence that we are dealing with principled opponents who play by the established rules."

King Charles inherited £650m tax free, gets £125m a year tax free from the tax payer and has an estate worth £22bn that’s never taxed.
But he still needed a 45% pay rise.
Like if he needs a pay cut.
RP if you want the Monarchy gone.

Job opportunities for Aberdeen drop by 700 in just 43 days. How low will they go?
This is a betrayal and quite clearly shows that the power over Scotland’s energy should be in Scotland’s hands - independence 🏴

Following an FOI request by
@theSNP, the Labour UK government confirmed that the Chancellor held ZERO meetings with Labour MSPs ahead of the budget.
That includes their leader in Scotland, Anas Sarwar.
They didn't just fail to stand up for Scotland - they didn't even try.

The 'farmers' protest is a good time to remind people of the Just Stop Oil protestors who got 21 years, just for planning a protest.

This is not “between” Scotland and England…it is “FROM” Scotland to England.
Secondly… this extracts £4,309,920,000 per annum from Scotland (based on current average retail tariff of 24.6p per kWh).
What’s in it for Scotland?…nothing!
