An independent Scotland would struggle to be economically self-reliant as most of its North Sea oil reserves are "depleted", the head of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has warned. Commenting personally on Scottish independence, OPEC secretary general Abdalla Salem el-Badri said Scotland would be best off remaining in the United Kingdom. "Myself, I don't see how England will stay without Scotland and Scotland stay without England. This is how we all grew up, with the UK, not with Scotland and England," he told the Daily Telegraph. Badri admitted that the Scottish referendum had "nothing to do with OPEC", which represents the world's 12 oil-producing countries and controls a third of the world supply. However, he said: âMost of their reservoir is depleted now.â Scottish first minister Alex Salmond has used the tax revenues from the North Sea reserves as a central argument for the country's independence. please log in to view this image
We have vast reserves of shortbread under our very feet. Shortbread mining would create jobs and wealth. No brainer.
The sweaty sockeg haggis munchint skirt wearers will not like this one little bit. Salmond is a fat ignorant **** who has not done his figures properly. Better together!!
So a recap on things as they stand; Loads of Tartan paint. Investment in haggis farming Sell all bowler hats to the Nigels Send the Protestant population to NI Send the Catholic population to NI Sounds like a plan
With the behaviour of the Condem Party recently it wouldn't surprise me if Cameron is well aware of this and wants to cut us off
