Great post!
I see that some southern-based people are struggling with the idea that Scotland may be a colony of England. It may help if they try looking at things the other way around . .

The SNP is scrapping peak rail fares across Scotland - for good.
From September, Hamilton commuters to Glasgow will save £760 a year, and those from Larkhall £910 a year.
We’re cutting costs, putting money back in your pocket, and focusing on what matters to you.

51 years ago, the UK prime minister received a report on the astonishing wealth of Scotland's oil. It was hushed up for decades in a bid to suppress support for independence. Today, as energy prices soar under UKLabour despite our nation's renewable riches, The National publishes it in full.

It's the 51st anniversary of the McCrone report when Westminster covered up the true extent of Scotland's oil wealth. Now they're downplaying Scotland's renewable energy wealth & exporting it while Scotland has some of the highest fuel bills in Europe.

Every news channel has been saying all day the Tate brothers' history is one of misogyny, their return is shady, and the effect on victims traumatic.
AND YET... all of them are standing by to livecast any remark the Tates care to make after landing, live and in full.
You are part of the problem.

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear.
This man sows hate, lies and division.
He is a grifter and a conman.
He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

'WTF', indeed!

I know Rangers fans, I know ex and current service men, I know English people that have settled in Scotland that all support indy.
Never assume someone is against independence because of their demographic. Support for Indy can be found in all walks of life. If we look.
