More Project Fear, Old Boy.
You voted to be poorer in 2016 (per the Government's own economists) so why can't the Scots do the same?

As if you didn't know, the situation is quite different as between the EU and Scotland.
In the EU case, the UK is a net contributor to the EU budget, funded from our ability to create wealth.
In the Scotland case, the UK government is a net contributor to Scotland, which has no ability to create comparable wealth to compensate.
'Project Fear', as you put it, is a valid warning to Scottish nats.
