I honestly do not think Scotland will leave the UK, but who know's.

English elitism is a very real and tangible problem.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
My experiences with visiting Scotland were not so good last time, I wonder how they'll change if this all goes through.
I'm not expecting everyone to be the same the next time I do (which I hope will be later on in the year).

I think it's even further divided to a Southern elitism.

I think it's further divided into a East London elitism. Bloody Shoreditch gits.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
Yeah they sound exactly the type of nutter that should be in charge.
Quote:
"To win, nationalists must acknowledge that Scotland is not one nation, but many. A hardcore of Scotland is rich, authoritarian, or militarist; where these households vote yes, they are statistical flukes. Salmond's team has sacrificed far too much to them already. Independence can, and must, be won by flouting and even alienating Scotland's landowners, businesspeople, and leafy suburbanites."
