Sorry, I am using an Ipad and it's so sensitive that I lose my place!
As I was saying, last week's FT showed how well off Scotland is and how much better off with oil and gas revenues it would be. The McCrone report of 1974, commissioned by the then Tory government and then hidden by the later incoming Labour government, said Scotland would be as rich as Switzerland with a pound which would have been the strongest in Europe. This report was kept secret until a couple of years ago when it was revealed under the FOI. The oil and gas revenues were squandered by later Tory and Labour administrations.
At the moment Scotland raise or lower tax by 3% so a different tax system could work now. RUK will not set the tax rates in an independent Sctland, the independent Bank of England will.
So don't kid yourself, Scotland's economy is strong. Have a look at the BBC's web site on Scotland's current GDP compared with the rUK. Whisky contributes 25% of all food and drink export from the current UK and accounts for over £4.3 billion .. I could go on but it has been documented elsewhere many times.
But the main reason for independence is to have a government voted in by the people of Scotland. At the moment, we have a Westmister government run by two parties which came third and fourth in Scotland.

Enough for now.
