  1. ​@jimmyavpi Scottish law is entirely different from English law, which is why there was never a United Kingdom! Both kingdoms were entirely incompatible, due to the subject of Sovereignty. English kings and queens ascend to the throne by birthright, but our's are invited to reign over us, but they cannot reign over our land, itself, the country. That and the resources belong to us! England is stuck with their monarch, 'til they kick the bucket or abdicate, while we can give our's the boot at a moment's notice. England's monarch is not answerable to the people, but our's is. Both English and Scottish monarchs are Sovereign. The English folk aren't Sovereign, but the Scottish folk are. In fact, we are the highest authority in Scotland, which is why any monarch we give tbe job to is answerable to us and can be sacked by us! They are on a zero hour contract, basically. The English government is Sovereign and is not answerable to the people, whereas, our's is not Sovereign and is answerable to us and they, too, are on a zero hour contract, ie, we don't have to wait five years to get rid of them and can just sack them, then hold an election to replace them with another party we feel is better suited for the job. The English Crown, it's govt and the puppets they both allow to run the Scottish branch of Wastemonster, ie Holeyrude, laughingly called the Scottish Parliament, fear we Sovereigns/Lieges, fear the power we weild, both for their personal reasons and because we are something the people of England might want for themselves, absolute control of any monarch or govt they choose, neither of them being allowed to do anything supposedly in the people's name, but, in reality, out of their own selfish interests. With this in mind, do you honestly imagine the people of Scotland would want to be reigned over by a monarch and govt they hadn't chosen in over three centuries? The two years constant rioting and rebellion, the length and breadth of Scotland, following the unauthorised and unlawful signing of the Acts of Union 1707 by those who did not have the permission of the Sovereigns/Lieges, made the English Crown and it's govt start thinking about the long term picture and they decided the only route was to colonise Scotland. They banned our culture, our language, our history, everything, then spent the time making both Scottish and English people forget the topic of Sovereignty, unless it had a bearing on English affairs. Unfortunately, many of us, too many, woke up and set about claiming what is rightfully our's and part of that is our constitution, which is written, unlike England's, most of which is unwritten and infers or makes reference, allowing both the monarch and govt to get away with murder, literally, and they are not answerable to the people, because the laws are not precise enough and the people remain unaware of what they can or cannot rightfully expect from those who govern them, whereas our constitution lays it all out, those who serve us knowing exactly what we expect of them and the price they have to pay for failure. Our Constitution allows us to hold as many referenda, as often as we like on any topics we want and allows us to keep a firm grip on our monarch and govt, so, if they start to deviate from our wishes we call a referendum immediately and set things right. Now do you understand why Wastemonster (and the Crown in the background) are so nervous on the subject, fight it tooth and nail? If they did as our Constitution demands, then English folk would rightfully start demanding the same right for themselves! They don't want Scotland revoking the union, as it not only means oodles of cash no longer rolling in for them to throw away and give to their pals, but could probably result in an English civil war and an end to their power, their Sovereignty!

  2. Please, do. We'll take our 22% of the Shared Assets, which topped out, 12 yrs ago, at around £14,000 billion, making Scotland's settlement just over £3,000 billion What, that alone will bankrupt England? Yes, it will, won't it? The IMF and others have reduced England's credit rating to it's current AA- and failure to pay our share would see their credit rating probably drop to at least A-, causing their lenders to call in all debts with nobody willing to give them credit, until their debts had been vastly reduced. Poor English taxpayers, who'd bear the brunt! Of course, it would also put an end to the £200 billion Scotland puts into the UK economy, annually, as David Cameron let slip, in a BBC interview, after Indyref! Luckily, the Governenor of the BoE backed up those figures, just a couple of months later. So, just on those figures alone, not taking our resources, illegal plundered, into account or the stolen revenues, I say, let's go for it. Hansard made official notice, mid 2023, that the Acts of Union 1707 did not permit England any rights to Scotland, it's territories or it's resources, leaving the door wide open to criminal charges of fraud and deception, against the Crown and Wastemonster, at some future date. In fact, that date is almost upon us. SALVO are currently over at the UN courts, putting the final touches, after two year's work, to the paperwork that involves bringing civil and criminal charges against the Crown and it's govt! I know for a fact England will miss us, as the gullible cash cow we have been, for the last three centuries and their spending has been crazily spiralling out of control, borrow amounts so large, around £3.3 trillion, that, without Scotland, they cannot afford their annual interest payments! So, yeah, it's time we got this show on the road, it's time we got the financial millstone of England off our necks, so we can finally raise our heads to see the bright future that lies ahead of us!

  7. You'll, doubtless, know why the 'NO' vote won, so I'll explain it to those that don't... Basically, the Crown, it's Wastemonster govt and the English controlled media set about a campaign of lies, broken promises and general scaremongering, as well as breaking international law, by directly interfering in another nation's referendum! That was what the 11th hour 'VOW' was all about, as late polling, showed the 'YES' vote was in the lead, so Wastemonster rolled out the big guns with the desperately big offer, the vow, pasted onto a sign, which Gordon Brown held aloft for the cameras and Scotland to see - Vote no and we'll grant Scotland MaxDevo, Home Rule or Federalism Remember that, Vincent? You'll also remember the vow wasn't worth the placard it was written upon, as the promise was broken and Scotland saw none of those conditions met, but many folk had already been terrorised, the pensioners warned by Brown, backed up by the DWP, that if they voted to leave the union they'd lose their pensions! He and the DWP were lying, though, weren't they, Vincent? Such a move would have been illegal, in fact, but, hey, the media ran with the lie - big, bold, banner headlines, scaring hell out of the old and vulnerable, because they're fair game to the English establishment, right?! And all the other lies of businesses, such as 'Scottish Widows', 'BT', etc, relocating to England, if the union was broken, causing mass unemployment in Scotland, but again, more lies upon lies. More were to come, via bribes of throwing millions at industries that never saw the promised investments, supposed rewards Scotland would receive, if we stayed 'Stronger Together,' as you'll recall, Vincent, while those industries collapsed, lacking the promised investment, once Wastemonster saw the results and knew they'd fooled enough folk in Scotland into staying in the disunited Kingdoms. HERE'S something you may *not*' know, though, Vincent. Edinburgh University conducted post referendum studies, as did Stirling and you'll never guess what they revealed - around 38% of those that voted to remain in the union did so, either from fear, caused by the lies or because they believed the lies, particularly the 'vow' So, any thoughts, Vincent, could you, for example point to anything I've mentioned and rebut any of it, all documented and part of history? Do let me know.

  12. ​@jimmyavpi Time for your education to begin, Jimmy, as I find your pontificating on subjects you clearly have no clue about to be cringeworthy for those witnessing it, as well as highlighting your ignorance. Fact: Acts of Union 1707 is a fiscal and political bilateral treaty between two seperate Kingdoms, nothing more. Fact: Article 19, within that treaty, enshrined Scotland's Claim of Right Act 1689, ensuring Scotland''s independence. England signed both contracts , thereby accepting Article 19. and the other terms, therein, one of which is, as Scotland is a Sovereign country and it's people are also Sovereigns/Lieges. It, Scotland, and they have full autonomy over all of Scotland's territories and resources. In fact, Hansard made official note, in 2023, that the Acts of Union 1707 did not permit England any rights to Scotland, it's territories or resources. Fact: Article 18 stipulates the contract is not being signed _in perpetuity, ie. forever, ergo either party can revoke the contract for whatever reason and is not obligated to seek agreement, never mind permission, from the other party. Fact: the Crown and it's Wastemonster government are refusing to adhere to the terms of the contract, have, in fact, breached it's terms on countless occasions, in the three plus centuries, since signing it and continue to illegally misrepresented the terms of the contract, going as so far as to knowingly lie about those terms for it's own gain to the detriment of Scotland and it's Sovereigns/Lieges. An example of this is the lie that Scotland is not independent. Another is that the Sovereigns/Lieges, while on their own Sovereign territories, are subject to English or UK (a treasonable offence) law. Yet another is that Scotland's territories and resources belong to the English Crown, whereas, they belong to the Scottish Sovereigns/Lieges, and to no monarch, in or out of Scotland or, indeed, any government, in or out of Scotland, is permitted to own the country, it's territories or resources, as the Sovereigns/Lieges are the highest authority, in their land, therefore any monarch is answerable to them and may be summarily dismissed by them, as can any govt, in Scotland, as it is not Sovereign. . Both are answerable to the Sovereigns/Lieges and can be immediately dismissed from their office. There you go, Jimmy. You're very welcome, as well as smarter, already. 😉

  16. Firstly, no such thing as an 'American', at least, there's maybe a handful, maybe not. Let me explain... The United States of America, along with the people, were sold, in 1913, by Wilson and both parties to a cartel of zio bankers, who legally converted the entire package into a Corporation, which they registered under the name United States, dropping the America part, in order to comply with International Law! The zio owners employed the former politicians as overseers to supervise the slaves and to act as their proxies, in the day to day running of the Corporation. The zio owners, in some dodgy but ironic twist of fate, pay full Corporate tax, on due date, to none other than the English Crown! So, you see, unless someone is over the age of one hundred and twelve years of age they are not an American, because the country ceased to exist in 1913, I mean it legally ceased to exist! They are slaves, whether they like it or not, know it or not (few of them do) the property of the Corporation trading under the name United States! Right, that's out of the way, so here's another set of factoids, which also have a link to the OP question... Scotland, way back, comprised of 40% of the UK population. Surprised? This was in the 1800s. Cue the clearances, supressions, transportation, low life expectancy of those staying, starvation, casualties in wars and emigrations and the figure stands at it's current 8.4% of the UK population! Our population has dwindled, it has been reduced by over *three quarters!*. Some ended up in the Carolinas, cotton picking, incidently, sold by their own clan chiefs to a life of slavery, having been lied to and told they were headed off for a new life in the Americas, a life of luxury, rather than the truth, that they were sold into slavery or, if lucky, indenture. What I'm saying is a lot of our near ancestors were sent to the English colonies for things as desperate as stealing a loaf or digging up some potatoes to feed their kids. Some went voluntarily, in the hopes of escaping starvation, hypothermia or both or just to give their family a better chance in life. Me, I spent 30 years in England, where I met other Scots, some shifting with their families, at a very young age, some born of Scottish parents, or one Scottish parent or maybe a grandparent and I have never met folk so fearsomely proud of their Scottish ancestry! Same with those in the former English colonies, some regarding themself as a fifth, sixth, seventh, whatever, Scottish exile, joyful and proud of their ancestry. We're aw Tam's bairns. 😁
