Not with public sector debt at the same size as the economy, What's needed is for the UK to disband itself after paying of all foreign debt, writing of all public sector debt and go our own ways.

@URBeingLiedTo In other words no the UK is not a nation as it doesn't have single UK ''national'' systems. Show me the non-existent UK Constitution to read? Which article states its a nation?

@ricardosmythe2548 Labour is making the case for Independence via having nothing to offer Scotland in his 6 pledges. Most of which do not apply to Scotland. Health is Devolved so his pledge to cut nhs waiting times only applies to England. Justice is Devolved so his pledge of cutting down on anti social behaviour only applies to England. Education is Devolved so his pledge to increase teachers numbers only applies to England.
