Hey jim, I hear oil company's are to probe the North Sea for what they say is there are large untapped pockets. Well excuse me I have been hearing this sort of thing for a few years now and every area probed turned out to be a wast of time.

So we must assume old Alex is banking on three straight cherry's across to pay for setting up a new country.

IIRC 95% of UK oil reserves are in what would be Scottish waters

Yes let them have their independence.But,we retain faslane,and they have their own currency,so when their monetry system goes tits up,the BoE doesn't have to bail them out,also the EU won't have to as well,as they won't be a part of the EU.
Salmond is a jackass.
