scotland will never be independent
centralization is the way of government
yeah this referendum is premature and will likely set precedent if it fails, so salmond is banking his whole career on it. i wouldnt feel comfortable as an SNP minister bringing this to vote unless there was at least 60%+ support for it in polls and you just dont have that right now.
pretty sure the EU is going to dissolve in the next 5 years tho
i dont follow scottish politcs
i dont think scottish people even follow scottish politics
theyre going to vote on independence in like 2 years and maybe sooner
theyll keep the queen as head of state tho so it will still be a united kingdom i guess idk
referendums are honestly a horrible and easily manipulated way of enacting policy to begin with, it would be a death knell to the UKs status around the world though and frankly this isnt bosnia subsumed into serbia we're talking about here the scots have been british for a really long time and the current english right to rule actually is derived from scottish kings (james)
why would they even consider giving scotland independence when they still have northern ireland
afaik there havent been any scottish terrorists killing people for a free scotland anytime in the last century
why would the EU dissolve?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the EU's primary purpose was just to eliminate unnecessary border crossings and distribute a continental currency to speed up international transactions and the European economy in general
I guess it would make sense that the EU would dissolve if one country in the union had their economy collapse, and have the effect of bringing all the other countries in the union down with it or having the union be dissolved
Come to think of it, collapse of the Euro might cause the apocalypse o_O

first new rule of law: incest is legal
why would the EU collapse doli jesus that isnt going to happen its going to get more centralized and become more or less a single country like the US
maybe he thinks scotland will leave the EU and without the best country in it it will go tits up but we wont
does everyone golf in scotland
not really everyone plays soccer like all other third world shitholes
if the eurozone falls so does the eu. if greece rejects austerity measures like its bound to do in the next week or two germany is going to pull the plug on its bailout which will mean that greece is going to leave the euro. if greece leaves the euro then its all too likely public opinion is going to turn against the euro in spain, portugal, and ireland which are other bailout-austerity countries.
the euro was honestly a doomed experiment so long as europe is as divided as it is. if you follow current trends in europe, rising eurosceptiscim in the uk and in france, increasing german domination of the union, increasing irritation with EU immigration laws, it's not going to do anything close to centralization im sorry.
cut all immigration the only people coming in anywhere are arabs
how to save the EU: let Anders Breivik free and let him get to work
we need to settle on a single language.
Well considering the most spoken language on earth is Mandarin Chinese, let's go with that.
english has the most total number of speakers including secondary language speakers so let's just keep english imo
english is also what the internet uses so fuck all other languages get back to me when you have your ching chong symbols in url bars bitch
i thought english is already the dominant language
