    Okay the other way round for a change.

    Will England be better off without Scotland? Is England heavilky dependent on Oil for it's revenue. Or if they lost us would they gain from subsidies to Scotland? I'm not saying one way or t'other as we still have not had sufficien independent analysis which is unbiased. Would like to see economists and other impartial bodies present the facts to us all.

    Does England really need Scotland?

    London should go it alone and leave the Northerners to drown in gravy and deep fried ale

    If Sussex is in London, no, if it's not, then ok.

    Not bothered either way.

    As for the effect of losing North British oil - an independant England would be spared having to fund NI and Wales so would probably balance out.
