Yep, they changed their name to Scottish Government, costing millions of pounds not only for them (ie. our money) but for loads of other organisations like mine who communicate with them all the time. You should see the money these ****ers waste. At least once a month I get mail from them and it's usually a single sheet of paper stuffed into an A4 size envelope costing about 48p when they could fold it in half and send it in an A5 envelope and save about 20p. Multiply that by X number of letters and I bet it adds up to a fortune.
I'd like to see an Independant Scotland - I make no apologies for that. Time to cut off the inbred English pikeys once and for all. A lot of people will point to ROI's problems and say "that could've been us" but for every Ireland, there's a Norway
The Republic of Ireland has it's problems, and they are pretty bad right now. But the average person is still about 10 grand a year better off than the average Scottish person. It's just that's fallen from about 15 grand better off than the average Scottish person No but seriously I think the Scottish would be much better off without the Union, and England probably would as well. Scotland gets all the cons from being part of a big European country, such as having to contribute large amounts to the EU, having to keep the corporation taxes high like France and Germany, having to contribute a large amount to a defence budget as well as being bundled in with the massive NHS with it's glaring inefficiencies - without having the pros that the likes of Norway and Ireland get such as low coporation tax, help from the EU for infrastructure (not Norway), a much smaller, cheaper and more tightly focussed health service with the ability to sit back and let the big countries spend their dough on defence. It's very easy to spot that the best places to live in Europe tend to be the smaller independent nations.
