Ok, that's a convincing well thought out argument. I concede.

Please stop.
We are all going to get fucked over in the end anyway so it doesn't really matter. All the everyman policys will collapse the same as usual. Everybody is arguing about who is the best politician/lyingbarsteward.
As for independence it didn't happen its done and finished with time to let it go and move on.

And this is what sticks in my craw, the SNP had their shot during the Referendum and lost badly. Now they are effectively holding the rest of the country to ransom with their General Election mandate on topics that don't just affect Jockistan. Its the political equivalent of a kiddie stamping and yelling and going off in a huff when they don't get their own way.

Just to say, the RoI did okay with the pound following their succession from the UK, and then even better with the Punt which was pegged to the pound. It was the Euro that sent things tits up.
According to the act of Union England and Scotland are equal partners, making the pound as much Scotland's as Englands. It would be the ultimate irony to see the Bank of England deny Scotland use of the pound considering a Scotsman was one of the founders of it.
Scotland has always voted predominatly Labour, after their piss poor show post-referendum they've effectively given every seat they ever held over to the SNP.
I'll leave this arguement now as I'm sick of the superiority complexes everyone is showing. We're all humans, and all equal - what the idiots at the top say means nothing.
To para-phrase game of thrones " Power doesn't exist. It is but a shadow on the wall, and a very small man can cast a very large shadow". They only have power because we give it to them, we're governed by consent. People need to remember that, if we want revolution in the way things are done politically in this country we need to get up off our sofas, take a break from watching corrie or whatever mind numbing bollocks is on the telly and campaign or fight for what we want. Sitting on an airsoft forum ranting and raving, bickering with each other like a 13 year old girl on a facebook status serves no benefit to anyone.
An no - to anyone mentally challenged enough to think that was directed at rousing a Scottish rebellion, it was directed at everyone. We'll have to work together and get over your feeling of difference towards people on the other side of an imaginary line formed hundreds of years ago. The borders shifted a lot, Edinburgh was the capital of an English kingdom, as was Glasgow the capital of a Welsh kingdom, and also part of an Irish one. We're all of the same land, start f*cking acting like it instead of succumbing to the imaginary boundaries implaced on you by the shadows on the wall who want to maintain their power over you. The lines wouldn't exist if it wasn't for King's to show everyone else how big their manhood is by showing how far they've raped and pillaged.

I think its quite apt, full of rabid lunatics in a place no one in their right mind would want to go. Seems to fit.
PS Its called banter....and I don't care if you are offended.

Teddybhoy, yes the Punt was tied to the Pound but it wasn't the same as the pound. Important difference.

If the Free state was formed in '22 , and the punt wasn't introduced until '28 , thats 6 years using the pound, gave us enough time to negotiate a deal to peg ourselves to the pound.
I'm not trying to cause any more friction here, just explain that it would have been possible. If the Irish and the British could negotiate that THEN, in context with what had been happening, I see no reason why an Independent Scotland and the remainder of the UK couldn't come to a similar agreement under the relatively less militarized and hate filled atmosphere of 2015.
