I do not wish to be ruled by unelected Lords and a government with one MP in my whole country.

The system as it stands is unrepresentative and archaic. Westminster has more in common with a west end show than a working parliament.

It will be a sad day to leave the union but time moves on and Scotland must govern itself.

2014: YES

I'm English and i wish Scotland all the best. Get out whilst you can. England is nothing more than a sinking ship now.

A cesspit filled with scrounging Pakistanis, Somalians, Polish, Turkish etc etc all flooding in to leech of us

Scotland is less affected by immigrants than England. There's still hope up north.

2014: VOTE YES, Scotland has everything what it takes to become independent country especially natural resources, get your friends and family to VOTE YES FOR INDEPENDENCE.

In a recent survey in the South China Morning Post issue 13th March 2013 76% of Hong Kongers would vote for Hong Kong to became a British Overseas Territory.

"most Hong Kongers wanted to remain under British rule infact they are desperate for the British to return and no i'm not being biased in any way because most Hong Kongers will agree with me"

Go home, you are drunk.

Another crazy guy comes out with a bunch of crazy words, and, no evidence :(

[AdamTheMan1993]

You know it's pretty funny to think that Scotland wants to be independent despite being on the same island as England and Wales but 8000 miles away in Hong Kong, most Hong Kongers wanted to remain under British rule infact they are desperate for the British to return and no i'm not being biased in any way because most Hong Kongers will agree with me, you may probably get the answers as well, think about that next time you watch the news about the SNP.
