tegwini Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Often I've considered the demise of the Labour Party in Westminster if the Scots went for complete independence. NO more Scots making legislation for the English which do not affect Scotland.But now with the Royal Bank of Scotland scandal, half a TRILLION's worth of debt for all UK taxpayers. And from a Scottish registered bank too, and now all taxpayers must cough up. What if Scotland had become independent ? The debt would be theirs! And we would be rid of the Scottish mafia too. I should mention nothing against most Scots, some Scottish blood and my surname too, just an aversion to being colonised by incompetents.Tegwini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Théière Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 1%, don't worry after the general election that will all change and the banks will make a big profit and pay back the government who will reduce the debt a tiny bit and the rest of us will just keep paying [6] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
