Also a Scot, only moved to England about 7 years ago. I can express opinions about
MY COUNTRY all I like.
Unfortunate fact is Salmond and Sturgeon lied about Scotland's economic prospects, they lied about remaining within the UK central bank (when they were peddling and independent country, how is the Bank of England setting economic policy and interest rates independent?), they lied about oil revenues, they lied about Edinburgh's financial sector (a bigger revenue stream than the oil BTW), they lied when they made comparisons to Norway, and they lied about EU membership.
Aside from the other propaganda, the maths just don't stack up.
