This is a normal post I'm not interested in having another pro/anti-independence debate.
However, I'm Scottish. I currently reside in Scotland and I want what's best for the country I live in. Independence is not it.

This is a normal post You seem to have the view that the independence question shouldn't be asked, lest an outcome occur that you don't agree with.
There's a pro-independence majority in the Scottish parliament, that alone shows that there is a case for a referendum to be held. Whether or not Scotland 'should' secede is a separate matter entirely.

I'd be interested to hear any positive reasons for Scotland remaining in the UK, I can't think of any.

This is a normal post 1) An incalculable amount of money wasted to change the UK flag on absolutely everything it appears on.
Looks a bit shit really

This is a normal post racist against the imperial English; surrendering to the imperial English

This is a normal post You'd have to ditch the red St Patrick's saltire in favour of something else for Northern Ireland
Maybe a blue/green saltire instead

This is a normal post Isn't Sturgeon's whole push for a second referendum based entirely on the fact that she is unwilling to accept the outcome of the first?
Anyway. As I said, uninterested in getting into a pro/anti independence debate. You're not going to change my mind as a unionist. I'm not going to change your mind as a nationalist. It's irrelevant, anyway. There isn't going to be a second referendum any time in the near future. Not an official one, at least. Perhaps Sturgeon might piss away some of our tax money on a mock referendum in the hope of some kind of self-validation - assuming she 'wins', of course...

This is a normal post isn't her whole push for civic nationalism in an independent Scotland because, WAIT FOR IT, as the leader of the SNP that is in fact HER JOB?

In that case, why do you think Truss's comment was a good thing?
