You might think differently May when the Russians come goose stepping down from the Orkney's, and a couple of thousand Scotsmen find themselves on the dole.

Last time I looked, You were 'Britain'!

Russians may be infinitely more welcome than that bunch of German aristocrats we currently have and the leeches on the body politic sitting in Lords and Commons.

Re: Trident

I think atomic bombs are only a deterrent if you are prepared to use them and I shudder to think where that might finish up.

Re: Trident

Hi

Trident is an expensive hobby, but so is Scotland.

Get rid of them both, we cannot afford either.

Hi

No, I am not foolish, far from it.

I was a WMD Specialist, I know exactly the results of using them, which is why I am totally against Trident, I repeat, it is a hobby, making Politicians feel important.

It is not even a UK Deterrent, we cannot launch them without prior approval from the USA, so wrong.

We should follow the lead of the French, a totally independent Nuclear Deterrent. ours and ours alone, leave us be, we will never attack first, but attack us and suffer the consequences.

Scotland needs to go, far more expensive per head of population than we pay the EU.

We cannot afford to keep subsidising it, Scotland is, on it's own, a Third World Country.

Let it go, I would vote for Independence for Scotland, given the chance.

I do not want my taxes paid to the Scots, it costs me too much to subsidises them.

The reality of the situation is this.

Scotland is not economically viable, better to let them go.

On the other hand, Yorkshire is economically viable, so independence for Yorkshire is a far more attractive proposition than independence for Scotland.

The sooner Nicola gets her way, the better for the English, we would be quids in profit, Trident or no Trident.
