Scotland could, of course, leave the UK if she wishes to. And the rest of the UK (Wales, Northern Ireland and England) would just carry on (in Union with each other) without her.

But no one in Scotland should think that under the europhile Scottish so-called 'National' Party (SNP) Scotland would be independent.

Under SNP plans Scotland would be dissolved into the EU Superstate now under construction where she would account for about 0.7% of the total EU population. The SNP would not only submerge Scotland into the EU single state but they would destroy the ancient Scottish Pound replacing it with the euro.

The SNP seek to get sovereignty from Westminster and give it straight to their masters in the EU instead. They are euro-nationalists who are on the side of europe and not Scotland.

I think Scotland should stay in the UK - but if this Labour shower in power at Westminster do not let England have her own Parliament (to match the powers of the one in Scotland) then opposition to the UK in England will continue to rise and there may no UK Union left for Scotland to be a member of.
