  • Why are Scots always whining and groaning in the eyes of Englishmen?

  • I'm adding this to favourites, It should get as much exposure as possible.

    Once that 68%of Scots realise that the only way we'll ever get our own revenue is independence, we need never suffer such contempt again.

    Respect. Equal partners. Stronger together. What total guff.

  • What's at funny (and disturbing!) is the laughter all around the chamber, from all of them.

    These people are so ignorant of the structure of the state they govern (the UK) they have no idea that Scotland's share of maritime territorial rights & possessions are not at their whim to decide. If Scots choose independence, the only issue is whether Blair's little bit of gerrymandering around the edges will stand a challenge.

    If Scotland votes yes, 90-95% of that oil revenue goes into our purse.

  • Well, if you guys can't tell the difference between someone using the word stupid as an adjective and not a noun...

  • He calls him self a unionist. Isn't a union a relationship between two sides with both sides benefiting from the partnership? We don't live in a union, we live in England, but we call it scotland. England takes our oil, then finds it hilarious when we ask for the money back. What an arrogant despicable vile man. He makes my skin crawl. The sooner we are independent, the sooner we will free from this vile Tory Dictatorship we live in.

  • @ShRiNkInGMuShRoOmS You said it, a relationship between two sides benefiting from a partnership. So why should Scotland keep all it's oil revenue to itself? Does London keep all of its tax revenues and not send any to the regions of England? No.

    The guy did ask a stupid question and the answer he got was par for the course for PMQs.

  • In the end, people always get what they deserve. This attitude from Cameron and the majority of MPs in Westminster has been the same since the union itself was created. They ignore Scotland and the main political party in Scotland but they are quite comfortable taking our oil and taxes. The look on Camerons face when the people of Scotland vote yes to independence will be just priceless ! I can't believe i'm saying this, but i welcome this attitude. It does wonders for the YES campaign.

  • NEWS JUST IN!!! If Scotland becomes Independent we will be the 6th richest country in the world while England will be 16th! If that isn't a good enough reason to vote yes to Independence... I don't know what is! Come on everyone! Lets leave WASTEMONSTER behind us and MOVE FORWARD to a HEALTHIER, WEALTHIER, HAPPIER, STRONGER SCOTLAND! xx

  • As it stands, the UK is one country, with one government, with devolved parliaments in scotland, wales and northern ireland. No matter who invested in what over the years, any natural resources are used for the country as a whole. The oil and gas are not in Scottish waters, they are in British waters. Considering the declining returns from the North Sea anyway, I think the whole argument is pointless, as there's barely anything left to argue over.

  • @policecastle it was not always british oil the scottish oil why should scotland give there oil when for 1 its ours and 2 u have your own oil in england . its like america saying canada should share there oil with them which is nonsense

  • @MrScottishJamie Sorry if I didn't make myself clear the first time. Scotland and England together with the rest represent ONE COUNTRY. The US and Canada are separate nations with separate parliaments and heads of state. Scotland and England share a parliament, and the head of state. It is not Scottish Oil, it is not in Scottish waters. Scotland has no waters - the UK does. It is UK oil. And, just so we're clear. I am not in England, I am not English. I have lived in Glasgow my entire life.

  • @policecastle scotland england and wales and in a way because of bloody sunday N ireland became a union simular to the euro union called the british union but scotland is a country and so is england but scotland is not happy in this union called the uk

  • @MrScottishJamie Dude. Seriously? Are you 12 years old? Northern Ireland became part of the UK cause of bloody sunday? Thats just plain thick. Its not called the British Union. Its called The United Kingdom of Great Britian and Northern Ireland. "Scotland is not happy in this union..." Naw mate, just naw. Some people in Scotland ain't happy with it. I'm Scottish, and I hate the SNP. The UK is nothing like the EU. Go away, learn some more about the real world and then you can have an opinion.

  • @policecastle u r about as scottish as a plain kilt lol the uk is everything like the eu they r both union of countries u proberly r a tory and u will find your view does not go well with others in scotland

  • @MrScottishJamie I can trace my family back over 500 years in the western isles you wee twat. You ever heard of the Labour Party? They hate the idea of independence as much as the tories. Last general election, the same number of people in scotland who voted SNP voted Tory, each got about a fifth of the vote. Answer me this then - how will Scotland survive on its own? Look at what happened to Ireland and Iceland. Alex Salmond wanted to base our economic future on them.

  • @policecastle look at norway as long as people alive like david cameron and margeret thatcher draining scotlands resources oil and budget cuts the last general election we did not have david cameron and who won in the scottish election give u a clue it was not iain gray it was alex Salmond the 1 that shows people real feelings about the electionate not the we must stop the tories thing the general election has . Alex salmond bases our economy on norway a small population country that has oil

  • @MrScottishJamie Norway - A small country where a pint costs £10. He did base it on Ireland and Iceland, so can we really trust him? The man's a retard. Norway is fine if you have money, but sucks if you don't. Actually, at the last general election we did get David Cameron. He's prime minister. Look it up. And Thatcher did a good job, investing millions into north sea oil. Alex Salmond's main campaign pledges were "We won't get rid of bus passes" and "we got rid of bridge tolls"

  • @policecastle norway is just like scotland small population and plenty of resources ask me this what will be left of scotlands economy as long as people like david cameron exist not much exactly david cameron will abuse scotlands economy to pay for uks debt which gordon brown started and there will proberly be a scottish labour in a independent scotland we should paying of our neighbours and let them choose how we do things and start doing things ourselves

  • @MrScottishJamie "start doing things ourselves" Like what? What possible benefits do you see coming from independence? Fair enough, we'll be able to let more terrorists out of prison maybe. What resources do you think Scotland has? We would have gone the way of greece and ireland had we been 2 years ago. 1/3rd of our population doesn't work or pay tax so how would we afford the NHS? Social care? The armed forces? Housing? Tuition fees? Scotland doesn't raise enough on its own for these.

  • @policecastle what benfits do we have we dont have to be forced into wars we dont want we can vote on all powers in scotland and have our own un head what resouces most north sea oil england has 10% on the case of greece of ireland rubbish westminster has control of our banks rbs bos i dont know where u get your figures from about work and paying tax but that is wrong england has the highest unemployment as for the others scotland would vote on which party want to lead scotland we r free

  • @MrScottishJamie Its got eff all to do with the Banks mate. The problems the UK govt are having are down to the structural budget deficit. But yes, Westminster did bail out two banks that have "Scotland" in the name, but they're not scottish banks, they're British. We wouldn't have been able to bail out anything had we been independent. My point about people not working was to do with Scotland. 1/3rd of Scots don't work, so when it comes to raising money for the state, its very pertinent.

  • @policecastle uk has debt of 900 billion so finances is not a union strong point since england has higher figures of unemployment so jobs is not a union strong point scotland is the only country in the uk in the plus if scotland is independent then we can vote on everything to with scotland and control all powers in scotland with scotland unemployment coming down in scotland the snp r doing well scotland could do better in independence because no tory cuts holding scotland back

  • @policecastle scotland will always feel these budget cuts the oil theft next maybe water theft or green power theft from the tories under the union so independence is the answer to break the tory grip once and for all

  • @MrScottishJamie And none of that debt is Scotlands? You really think we would break away from the Union debt free? You still haven't answered my question about how Scotland would afford things like the NHS. These things are paid for with money raised from taxes. As I have already pointed out, Scotland doesn't have enough people in work to pay the taxes to pay for public services. Oil theft? Come on man, what part of "its British oil, not scottish" is it you're not understanding?

  • @policecastle scotland would take a certain % of debt but not it all it was scottish oil before it was british stop listening to margret thatcher lol the 1 who took the oil

  • @policecastle i bet u sit at home taking these cuts on scotland by the tories which r not reversed by labour like free icecream people like u a betraying your land scotland not bugger off labour/tory boy they r both the same anyway these days lol

  • @MrScottishJamie Dude. You clearly don't understand the budget cuts. The country is out of money. We can't spend what we don't have. Betraying my land? Have you been watching Braveheart again? You do know that movie was fictional, right? Not all Scottish people want independence mate. What will you say when you lose the referendum? If scotland votes no to independence, what will you do then? Another question, would you have us keep the crown, or become a republic?

  • @policecastle u clearly dont understand the debt is getting higher because the uk is wasting its money on nukes i dont like braveheart its inaccurate the real braveheart story is about robert the bruces heart if scotland wins independence by 1 vote then we have won if scotland votes no then snp will fight for more powers for scotland snp would keep the crown until a republic party won eg ssp or solidarity people might vote for Financial independence but full independence so no more iraq wars

  • @MrScottishJamie Yeah man, I agree. If Scotland does vote for independence then thats fair enough. I'll shut up and leave for England as quickly as possible. Nobody's wasting money on nukes. They barely cost anything these days. To upgrade we're looking at £500m over 20 years, which ain't much. We need the nukes, keeps countries like Iran and N. Korea at bay (sort of). No more wars cause we wouldn't have an army. Thats a lot of people out a job cause you disagree with saving people from tyrants.

  • @policecastle there is finanical independence as well scotland would reserve the army we already have and we would keep the blackwatch but again the union closed 2 airbases in scotland not along ago so having secure jobs in scotland is not in the unions intrest so army is not the union strong point but that 500 m over 20 years makes the debt worse not better lol ever heard of grass cutter bombs hmm those r quite damaging and yes i agree the tyrants r the union u tyrant supporter

  • @MrScottishJamie That policecastle is nothing but a tory prick m8,just pity the fool cause he,s part of a dying breed lol

  • @policecastle u would leave to england huh your true loyalty shows my ? is why wait pal bugger off go on. Independence would be good because no more iraq wars which was illegal

  • Arrogant Twat's, It's time to flush these little rich boy's.

  • @maddad440 true that yes to independence let our msp be our mps for scotland full power for scotland

  • @MrScottishJamie Yeah! that would be good . I see from the comment's you found a TROLL , the best thing to do is not feed it ,then they fade away die.

  • @maddad440 sure did i find all unionists to be trolls a bunch of liars

  • I see Newsnut Scotland cunningly edited the video to miss out the entirety of David Cameron's response :) I will provide to our over zealous nutty nat bretheren THE FULL UNEDITED statement:

  • DC: If you ask a stupid question, you get a stupid answer. The fact is the whole of the United Kingdom rightly has invested in the North sea, and the whole of the United Kingdom should benefit from the North sea. We should do everything possible to keep the United Kingdom together because we are stronger—England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales—than we ever would be separate.

  • @midgiemarsh but scotland found the oil britain just said its ours because we r part of britain so when scotland goes the oil goes as well

  • @MrScottishJamie The oil may have been found in Scotland but this beautiful country is part of the great United Kingdom so we share it with our English, Welsh and Northern Irish friends. I'm sure that if oil was found off the coast of England the English would be more than happy to share the oil with us.

    Thats not my point though the point I was making is that Newsnet Scotland is trying to score points and has edited the video so as to make it seem Cameron called us stupid

  • @midgiemarsh wrong very wrong england has oil 10% of the british but yet our oil subidises the english why would they not give each country to it own resources the reason being england would lose out for not having much oil will soon be part of the past as green fuel moves in but the money made from the oil will help scottish green power with your logic usa should have canadas resources lol because there on the same piece of land

  • @midgiemarsh Whether they did some editing or not, don't you think the derisory laughter of the unionist fat cat bastards in the House of Commons was disgusting? They were jeering at the very idea of people having financial benefit from their own resources and denying the South East its huge piles of cash for the already mentioned infrastructure improvements and vanity projects. Watch

    watch?v=S9BgbQ8fo6A&list=PL2EB­E3BC985414E40&index=12

  • @midgiemarsh you make no sense, its mostly businesses that invested in discovering the oil, not the government. The oil is within Scottish waters therefore all tax revenue should go to Scotland. For too long this revenue has been invested in the south of England, Olympics, Channel Tunnel, M25, lots of other expansion projects.  Its about time some Scots opened their eyes to where their tax revenue goes.

  • @midgiemarsh So, which nauseating little unionist troll slug are you? CR7/Rufus? ELIE, (the pretendy Ulsterman living in Govan)? In any case one of the Hootsmon's nauseating band of lickspittle unionist turds. What you mean to say is that the union should continue as ENGLAND is stronger because of it and would implode financially without Scotland propping it up. You little Englander shits wrapped in your butcher's apron make me sick to my stomach.

  • @CalumGilhooly Hahahahahahahahaha. I'm Scottish actually lived here my whole life. It's quite funny actually how you cybernats get offended so easily. I'm not a Unionist troll slug i'm just providing the Unedited REAL Answer that Cameron gave. Did he say the Scots were stupid......No. Then again your all the same all abusive little shits. None of you are worth my time as you don't want to accept the fact that Cameron did not call us stupid so good bye to all of you.

  • @midgiemarsh Ah-ha a Toom Tabard shit-head. I never said you were English,I just said unionist, i.e. an utter prat. Whether Cameron said Scots are stupid or not, the fact remains that the question of Scotland being allowed control of all that lovely oil and gas revenue was met with howls of derisive laughter from teh Conservatives and other unionists. They had to laugh as contemplating that happening would make them kack their kegs.

    PS. that's what you type, KACK!

  • @midgiemarsh You are an absolute idiot. Obviously you can't read this and reply because you've said your goodbyes to everyone! "Look at me......Look at me......I'm going......"

  • @midgiemarsh WRONG, the uk has not invested a penny in the north sea, it has all been done by private companies. that is unless BP is now a state owned company.

  • @Dovahkiin187 May you live in a nation where not a soul speaks your language. May you never be among your own culture. May your children marry asians or africans. May you die alone, an angry old man in a world that no longer needs you.

    I don't care about Scottish blood being pure, I want it mixed. The more we mix our blood with everyone else's, the more like us the world becomes! It's not our blood, that I care about, it's our ideas, culture, and languages. You don't need to be white for those.

  • Cameron is an uncle tom, dic scion dafyd, lace curtain traitor.

    British, not scottish, and to hell with anything relevant to the nation which spawned him.

    We're not colonized by the English, we're self fucking colonized, and it's bootlicking disappointments like Cameron, Blair, and Brown which have brought us where we are today:

    Our fisheries sold to fucking spain, our oil used to pay for english wars, we give more than anyone else, and get shite all in return.

  • what this clip doesn't show is Camerons full pathetic answer to the question, but so much for his 'respect' agenda but to be honest that went out the window when he allowed unionists to debate the terms of an independence referendum which none of them wanted in the first place. The SNP wanted a referendum, the SNP won a majority, the SNP should decide the terms

  • Seriously,is our Mean unpleasant land run by Monty Pythons now adays????

  • He was simply saying that the question posed to him , does he agree that oil revenues should be devolved to Scotland, was a stupid question because of course he isn't going to agree to that. He wasn't calling Scottish people stupid.

  • Never mind Cameron what about the rest of them - Labour MPs guffawing away with the rest of them at the question - before the tory boy's response. Scottish Labour will represent Scottish interests? My *rse

  • @Paladoon good point its why i would never vote labour

  • They say stupid is as stupid does. Mr Cameron, need I say more?

  • lets vote snp in westminster as well make these toffs feel it

  • "English Toff scorns the Scots" - that headline could have been written at any time during the last 300 years. Every time they behave like this, they drive more undecided voters to the SNP.

  • I´m more "frustrated" (for wont of a better phrase) by the fact much of the rest of the cabinet and MPs are also having a jolly good belly laugh after the question was asked. Everyone knows/has realised Mr Cameron (nice Scottish name BTW) is pretty rubbish. It´s the bickering MP masses that get me shaking my head in disgust.

  • It appears the 'respect agenda' has all but evaporated!

  • I think is was the great mcglashin who once said of the english 'POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFS'

  • More contempt and bull from Westminster. Do you really want this place, and that man, running Scotland?!!

  • @mesmiths Better than independence god forbid.

  • He's a stupid bastard

  • To be fair he didn't call us stupid. He called the question stupid.

    Sniggering at all the kids raging below.

  • @ScotsmanTillDeath the problem is that majority of the people in the poll was a high yes and yet they laugh at us there is no need for that treatment westminster has no respect agenda to scotland this is just the tories getting revenge because we dont see there fascist views if the union parties have no real party in scotland then scotland staying in the union is not a good idea

  • @MrScottishJamie Another party for Scottish independence is what i want. SNP is too liberal for me. If we want Independence, we must take all the thousands of Non EU Migrants, more mosques, more cultural diversity ect.. As stated in their policies.

  • @ScotsmanTillDeath so vote yes to independence then vote what ever your party feels like yours then after the result a party which u like in a independent scotland.

  • @MrScottishJamie Like? Were gonna have to make a party as the rest apply for the Union?

  • @ScotsmanTillDeath look it up u will have problems finding 1 if not u will proberly have to create 1 most right wingers r unionists mind u . I dont have the same issues as yourself. in politics . Mine r westminster having powers over scotland if anything this video will in courage scottish independence because it shows westminster labour tories and libdems dont care about scottish views at all what ever they r

  • English cunts. Roll on Scottish INDEPENDENCE!!!!

  • Scottish Independence

    epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petit­ions/1599

  • if u think we r better in the union iam sure this shows how much westminster disrespect the scottish people

  • ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING OUTRAGE!!!!

    Cameron's true colours are evident in that answer. Salmond should demand a public apology and increase the pressure over this hateful remark.

    The arrogance of the Eton schoolboy demonstrates yet again that this so called union is unfit for purpose. England's reputation is going further down the pan with this lot.

    The time is long overdue to pull the chain.
