Comments by "irresistablejewel" (@irresistablejewel) on "Ask Peter: Why Scottish Independence Will NEVER Happen!" video.
"Why Scottish Independence Will NEVER Happen!"... "Does that mean it won't happen? Of course not!" (It seems some people say dumb things all the time too, Peter). So we have the EU sending bankrupt Ukraine billions to join and you claim they'll turn down Scotland, well I don't think you know much about us or this at all. Besides the EU welcomes companies playing countries off against each other regarding corporation tax; their free movement of people (like America's "special relationship" with the UK) is largely one way (we have enough unskilled labour already) and neither Scotland (or the UK) would be wise to join the Euro (and if you don't know why, Peter; just ask Greece). As for people getting whiter or poorer as one moves North (clearly you've never been to Birmingham or Bradford); it's already known Westminster is London-centric (one thing that offends people North of Luton): Wales; Scotland even the North of England are afterthoughts and it's the (now) blatant corruption in and around Westminster people want away from because (like in America) the UK government doesn't care about people (just money) and there seems little difference between the two main parties (war or war? vote now). Actually Scotland has been independent before; that's another thing you are wrong about... the Scottish government before the last indi referendum employed Stiglitz (America's $3 Trillion war) and a team of skilled economists to cost things out; far more reliable than Osborne and Cameron when it comes to economics (we have hard evidence) and it's viable. Yes anyone can use the pound or dollar (for some odd reason they are viewed as international commodities) it's the lender of last resort that's import and and you missed that, Peter. As matter stand it's not just Scotland running a deficit: the UK; America and most of the Western economy are slowly going bankrupt; Chicago school economics is a bust (only works on paper). Anyway, ever think that Scottish independence might not look the way you think it will? Scotland is already water independent; trying to work on renewable energy (but Westminster holds the purse strings and is in bed with the "frackers"); the right-wing London government isn't much good with money (although they claim they are); so I suggest you mind your own business, because you obviously don't know much about ours. As far as Scottish independence goes; that's up to the voters not you; I hear you also think China will collapse in a generation (want to bet on that?). At the moment the EU and America are best avoided (but that's not easy to do); seems they've got an issue with a nuclear superpower and have wasted billions of public money so far; with more on the way. Looks like their globalist dream (with them at the top); this NWO, is another bust; they'd follow a fiver profit off a cliff and have! Perhaps you might talk about something you know about? Before the American oligarchs manage to start WW3... their oil wars don't suit us and neither do "blaggers".
