[markrichardson]

Enough is enough, let us not only have a referendum for Scottish independence but also England. Let England go on its own, the other parts of the UK are just dead weifgt.

[burkehare]

Why do I always hear from a “Englishman” it’s not the right time. Sorry but this Union built on equality of nations and consent! If Scotland wishes to be independent then all it needs to do is withhold consent. We do not need Westminster permission

[richardk]

What happened to once in a generation? They had it and lost.

Is a 3 minute 23 second clip really so long that I need to hear the same sentence two times? I don't know who came up with this idea of repeating content in these tiny clips but that guy know absolutely nothing about viewer retention.
STOP DOING IT FOR GOD'S SAKE. you guys do it in every single video and none of them are long.
If it is a clip less than 20mins long, repeating the lines is absolutely unacceptable

[peterweaver]

Let English people vote and it will sail through, then we can get round to repatriation and a bloody big wall.

[brucemcpherson]

The SNP complain that Scotland is restrained the "Shackles of Westminster" when the truth of the matter is that Scotland is sustained by the "Shekels of Westminster"

[alien]

As an Englishman with a Scottish surname I look forward to applying for dual citizenship.

[donaldcampbell]

round and round they go, the SNP rodents on their referendum wheel.

[allenp]

We had a democratic vote in 2014 and said NO!

[tomcochrane]

Hopefully freedom from the English dictator.

[pjmoseley]

[DrunkDelilahBrewery]

Hard Border on England and NI issue we need....

[LivegoodWilliam]

[Theresabrown]

Scotland needs it's independence I will vote YES on 19th October 2023

[Steven-fvxw]

scotland is a progressive country while england is a conservative country. these two countries share different values. It's time to seperate. Keep in mind the Tories have never won a single UK general election in Scotland for much more than 100 years. also keep in mind Tony Blair is the only non-tory party leader who was born in the past 100 years that have ever won a UK general election

[robhunt-watts]

If it means getting rid of fatty, I'm all for it.

[johnhawkinshawkins]

Before you leave, pay your bills....whddya mean we is broke, can u sassenachs help us out a wee bit please, we'll get brussels to pay you back....

[politirel]

Yes of course you can leave, just as soon as you pay the 200 billion pound divorce bill, you cant lumber us with all that debt now, can you? Oh and you can't use the pound either, oh, and those 1, 000's jobs to build the new Royal Navy fleet? Well, you lose them too, oh, and expect a hard border with lots of lovely tariffs, etc from us. And no extra money from us either
