Scottish Independence Effects Us All

Peeps,

As you all know next year is the 300th anniversary of the Union of the Parliaments of England & Scotland. However there is a growing independence movement North of the Border with 52% voting to break up the Union and a healthy 59% in England who want it too.
Now begs the question, if Scotland does go independent, what will happen to the UK Armed Forces? I assume, Scotland will have its seperate Armed Forces and we must remember that their parliament overwhelming (quite right too) rejected the invasion of Iraq. In a nutshell, the worse case scenario for the remaining service personnel of Britain is more detachments!!

Tell me what you think guys and gals.

I once slept with a girl from Edinburgh; does that mean I am entitled to transfer to the Scotish Air Force? Less dets and more rounds of golf!

The whole idea of the nation splitting is fairly stupid, after all we are the United kingdom!

Spot on dude, it comprises of England, Wales, Scotland and northern Ireland. United we stand........... and all that jazz :pDT_Xtremez_14:

They wouldn't do it as it would cost a farking fortune to carry out all those moves. Personally, I wouldn't mind a home tour at Lookers!:pDT_Xtremez_30:

You can go off people you know ::p:

On second thoughts, Wales isn't part of Europe. They can keep their litres, grams and Kilos. The only thing measured in the last 2 is drugs anyway !

If we let the Jocks break away will we have to build more airfields in the north to erm spy on them and protect the boarder. Also can we keep the Scottish bombing ranges?

Listen. Yees can aw awa an bile yir heids.

TO SPLIT WOULD BE A TOTAL DISASTER.

All I used to hear was our oil this and our oil that. FFS it's only good for lawnmowers and pushbikes.

I'm Scottish thru and thru with heather growing out me wotsit but to divide our great nation would be disasterous. The english need us FFS. The RAF would become the RSAF. All the best engineers have always on average, came from Scotland.

No no. South of the Great Hadrians wall would become a dessert. A wasteland. Crime would soar, anarchy would prevail.

Save the english. Vote for unity. At least wait till I've had my boob job.

One of the reasons why the Scottish parliament voted against it is because the Scottish politicians who would have voted yes are all in Westminster.

(between 2001 and 2003 25% of the cabinet were from Scottish constituencies.)

I am surprised that the Scots are not celebrating the political victory that they achieved over the English after all it was the Scottish parliament 300 years ago that forced the Act of Union on the English.
