White Britons to be minority IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY by 2066

[Souseiseki]

I simply believe that my country would be better run by Scots for Scots!

Forgive my ignorance but isn't that what the Scottish Parliment is for?

the BBC once said salmond has much less power than an american governer but i'm not sure how true that is

there is a lot they can't control and we end up with "man, the energy situation sucks!" "do something" "we can't". also lol trident.

[Lordieth]

Nigel Ferage is not amused.

And your point is...?

That you can't just make an absolute statement that the Picts were distinct racially from the Britons. Such a statement can be true only in the context of a specific constructed race continuum (which you haven't bothered to state), and in the context of other continuua it may be patently false.

I believe in the idea of "race" based on the genetic and physical characteristics that differ between the "indigenous" peoples of certain geographical areas/locations. I wasn't considering any "other continua".

[Nova Imperius]

You just have an aura of Anti-English about u. have u considered that maybe Britain run by the brits would be better.

does this mean you're against devolution, then?

or should we go for glasgow run by the glasweigans. u can go to massive scale or tiny scale

yes, you can, which is why THEN WHY SOHULDN'T YORK BE INDEPENDENT is a ridiculous retort and you should get eaten up by the euro super state

I think devolution is good and how it should have been from the beginning. I dont see why we cant just have a shared army, health service, and foreign affairs office. Now i wouldnt be surprised if we joined a Eurostate if we were an independent scotland

The Current set up has Limited powers & funds given to us by Westminster. Nationalists would prefer full control of ALL of our resourses & tax raised so we can choose what we spend it on for example rather than waste it on nukes & rusty subs we could spend it more wisley on say something like a hospital ( quite a few)

We could also have our own immigration policy as our country in comparison to England & Wales is some what underpopulated.

Thats a good thing. we dont want to have to many ouths to feed and to many people to provide with energy in the future

i doubt SNP would allow heavy immigration, they are Nationalists

is this based on what they've actually said or secret leaked documents, or the fact they have "national" in their name?

[Kilgrammie]

LOL... indeed the seen Braveheart to often slur is the bottom of the barrel.

It's not even historically accurate for starters


I simply have the audacity to believe my country could do better as an Independent nation, we could then have the luxury of a goverment that scots voted for.

They are for the scottish people, not foreign people. Also can i ask how would it be decided if you shall have scottish or New UK citizenship??? It would be pretty complex and im sure people would decide to move before laws were passed to the other side of the border vice versa

It is true. Whereas all tax raised in the UK goes to Westminster and Salmond gets a chunk (although there was the income tax varying power, but that was never used and given up in 2010), US governors raise their own taxes (as much as they like, and in whatever form they like) to fund their purview. However, that's a lot easier to do in the US, where states all have the same powers, than the UK, where different parts of the country have different devolved powers (which would then make it quite hard to determine quite what level of tax they should all be paying to Westminster and what would be the purview of the devolved authorities).

Im going to break this to you....... Scotland does elect its statisticly correct number of MPs into Westminister. We also elect 100% into hollyrood. Now for england they basicly have a random bunch of scots deciding on half their stuff.

So here you so obviously want to close the gates to more people . but yet you say as i'm an nationalist I would be against immigrants?? Mhhhhhh

Sorry to disappoint but my wife is Chinese, as I've already said my mate is english think i'm kinda open minded on that one.

they are for the people of scotland, not the scottish people. this is a subtle but substantial difference. must we recall who was the first non-white and first muslim MSP?

i don't really count "it'd be really complex" as an argument against doing things. do you think they're going to demand people choose their eternal allegiance and start ripping passports out of peoples hands?

How many conservative Mps in Scotland over the last 20 years?? dont we currently have more Pandas then conservative mps???

US governors raise their own taxes (as much as they like, and in whatever form they like)

Sorry to nitpick, but that's not really true as such. US governors can propose a budget including their comprehensive tax plan, but (in all 50 states AFAIK) it must still be passed by the state legislature, perhaps augmented by popular referendum (as in California this year, where Proposition 30 added to the revenue plan approved by the legislature). Governors may have more or less political capital available to influence the adoption of their tax plans, but at the end of they day they raise the taxes that the legislature lets them. The governor approves the budget passed by the legislature, but that doesn't really mean the governor gets whatever ze wants - a veto may be overturned.

usually the SNP don't vote on england only matters, what a bunch! maybe england should run their own country too. mmmm.

Still it is fact that it is easier to sustain less people internaly in scotland than more. We are to small a nation to open borders fully and really dont need it. We have an equivelant population to Norway and they are doing just fine

That would be quite a good arrangement!! then England could also take it rightfull place as a nation again.

Indeed Norway are doing just fine .............. as an Independent nation the same size as Scotland with similar resourses
