Heh, you got caught out again and now you're squirming.
Back on-topic and read this (if you can) for an explanation of why Scots still won't seek independence any time soon.
(Partly of course because it would lead to huge problems for Spain, France, Italy and others but hey!)
"People in Scotland benefit from a 'union dividend' of more than £2,500, almost 30 times higher than the average English resident, research by an influential think tank has found.
The Institute for Government (IfG) found that in 2018/19, the most recent year for which full UK-wide figures are available, Scotland ran a deficit of more than seven per cent while England’s was just 0.3 per cent."
Do you think the EU will foot the bill to keep Scots in the lifestyle to which they've become accustomed when they're already squabbling about funding?
