Don’t forget the 1979 independence referendum,which was 52%in favour of independence and 48% in favour of remain. What a total denial of democracy and the will of the people that this result has not been implemented 😢

The Uk is not weaker, it has become more prudent for Scotland to have self government! Also, the result of the 1979 independence referendum was 52% leave and 48% remain, this stands as an injustice against Democracy and Scotlands rights of independence!👿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👿

we were the richer bigger country. you know nothing. we didnt sign up for a union. the 3 nobles that gave us away were found torchiered an killed.. england had nothing. we were the biggest port of trade in europe. london mps seen it closed it down an moved it to london. england has never been a country that made money off there own back. took ours time after time. 600 trillion an counting they owe us.. you do know after killing the nobles there was a war for hundreds of years. england didnt have money until they stole our trades.. to this day. england has no money or makes an income. why are you even talking in this. you clearly have no clue. an they things are hundreds of years apart.

Scotland was forced into a political and fiscal union with England with Scottish nobles told that they would lose lands if they did not sign, English garrisons in every town and city in Scotland and gunboats preventing trade in and out of Scottish ports until the Act of Union was signed and beyond. After this 1707 union there were riots on the streets of Edinburgh such was the descent shown to this political and fiscal union by the Scottish people. Despite the Crown being the people and the people being the Crown in Scotland, this union was forced upon the highest authority in the land; the sovereign Scottish people. England, not the English people but, England, instead of extending the hand of friendship saw their opportunity to funnel the assets of Scotland into the Westminster coffers despite the act of Union giving England no claim to Scotland’s assets. Coal then steel then oil. The fingers to steal Scotland’s renewable energy are already with us with extortionate feed-in tariffs and the British renewable power company, a Trojan horse to be forced upon us. The next funnel will be Freeport’s. Large swathes of Scotland will be annexed and Scotland’s population put to these Freeport wheels like so many hamsters to swell offshore accounts. There in lies the truth you missed in your documentary.

Given the implosion of the SNP, Scottish independence doesn’t appear “inevitable”, which is typical Marxist thinking anyway. Also, why would Northern Ireland leave the UK and join the Republic when the NI Protocol gives NI the best of both worlds?

Britain could well " break up "

however unless there is a major increase in tectonic activity, it will likely take millions of years.

Now, if you mean " The United Kingdom" that's a wholly different prospect!!
