Well I was going to make a pot of lentil soup and thought I would check out what’s going on with players transfers and that first on the Noise and lo and behold a political thread on independence for Scotland and so I just thought I would add my wee bit of opinion.
I’ve been a supporter for Scotland’s independence for a huge part of my (long) adult life and would be as happy as a pig in clabber if we won a referendum - that’s the simplified version of my thoughts…
But tbh do you all think watching what Geopolitical stakes that have befallen many countries in world who decided to upset the US applecart that it’s a good idea to take on Uncle Sam with regard to Faslane and the Nuclear weapons that the Greens and the SNP want rid of toot sweet.
Another added factor is that Scotland is an oil producing nation where the proceeds from that resource goes into the Westminster coffers and we get a small payoff for the privilege. I don’t think the ‘City Of London’
would be willing to give all that up too easy.
Just can’t see it happening - it’s just recently been reported in an interview on the lengths the ruling elites with the help of 5he media here and MI5/MI6 and the military along with the US and Israel and on the inside traitors of the Labour Party made sure Jeremy Corbyn would never be a British PM.

With natural resources and a submarine base if independence ever did happen which I don’t think it will, I’m sure Uncle Sam would have no hesitation in bringing us freedom and democracy if some future communist (slightly left of centre) regime (government) ever seized power (was democratically elected) and threatened the world order of peace and order ( told them to take their subs away and nationalised the oil )
