Their GDP would drop by about 30%, they'd be out of the EU and they'd still be the worst Rugby team in the six nations.

The fact that at the last pole they had, only 37% wanted it.
When they found out they would have to pay their own welfare costs only 13% wanted it.

And when they poled people in England, 84% wanted it.

Why not, it's good enough for most.

Most of the fascists that have posted earlier...

[SPman]

Gordon Brown to squander all their capital plus importation of large numbers of lower grade immigrants to bolster the left wing vote

Gordon Brown....New Labour party......LEFT WING!

I thought most of the North Sea oil/gas fields were in Scotland's territory....?
Out of the EU - is that a bad thing - at least they get to control whatever money they might have their own way - not the German banker's way.........

You've not seen the historic grievances claims?

So you want to move on and build a New NZ and expect the Maoris to forget about the treaty but you still hold a perceived grudge against the English from a Battle 100 years earlier than the Maori wars?

Great Britain 1, Argentina nil.

More accurately it was:
Britain 255,
Argentina 649,
Falkland Islands 3.

In addition:
An estimated 264 British and 350-500 Argentine veterans committed suicide.

for what?

Oil, soverignty, sending a message to dictators etc. The aggressors by far suffered the greatest losses, thats fair. Not all of us are pacifists.

The sooner the Scots get their independence the better.

Per capita they take far more out of the welfare purse. So how would they fund it themselves?

...the naivety of your statements make me think you are not half as clever as you think you are...Galtieri
needed a war or somesuch political upheaval to save his arse and she was in a similar situation, so she obliged...typical of power hungry despots throughout history...your views are your personal political dogma that you adhere to...some of us treat her with the contempt she deserves...the lives that both the tin pot general and the twisted iron lady spent on their political aspirations put them both on the same level as Idi Amin or any other third world dictator...just cunts...

I lived and worked in the UK during that conflict and I can assure you Im very well read on the subject. Its just that my deductions / opinions are different to yours. I may not agree with your viewpoints but in general those of a political persuasion right of centre largely accept that there will be differing opinions. What is irksome though is there are so many of a left wing persuasaion that are totally convinced their views are the only ones that are correct and get very aggressive to those who dont agree. I have found this time and time again.
Look at the people in Brixton celebrating Maggies death, did you see the same disgusting spectacle of Tories brazenly celebrating and denigrating her political adversary of that time ( Michael Foot ) who died a year or so back? I didnt agree with his politics but he had some good points.
