[QUOTE="excollier, post: 855592, member: 284272"] So, if Scotland were not a member of the EU, then there would need to be border/passport/immigration controls....hope they can afford all that. Lose the right of abode in the rest of Britain and EU(technically anyway, can't see [I]that[/I] being enforced, particularly in England) Anyway, in this global economy what do borders matter any more? As I said, I wish them well if that's the way they want to go. Since Ireland got it's independence it is still struggling after 90 years, with only their own endeavours to blame, it's tough to leave a strong overall economy and stand alone. I know Scotland is a different case, but it won't be plain sailing for a while. I watch with interest. They will swap being ruled by Westminster to being ruled by Brussels ([I]if[/I] they are granted EU membership) they may not take too kindly to that. Regarding the post above from Huevos, Ireland have done just that over time...so much for nationalism. [/QUOTE]
