If you say so. Chose to join. The English starved the Scots into it by refusing to allow trade with the colonies. There was no choice in the matter at all. However that's a different subject. The point I was making was that it is fine for one but not for the other. The economic threats, if you believe remain are the same. Trade with the EU is the same. Relocation of companies is the same. The arguments they are using are word for word the ones they used in the Scottish referendum.
