And the “Shetland’s Oil” argument is one made only by unionists and rarely in Shetland. This is because they understand their affairs better than the common garden Yoon.

You see, most of the oil is in Scotland’s territorial waters but nowhere near Shetland. Shetland has the Sullom Voe oil terminal, but even that is privately owned. Shetland would of course have a territorial share of oil, but it’s a fraction.

Shetland independence or autonomy is fine. It could even choose to rejoin the UK if it wants. But I doubt it would.

I know Shetland a little and their political culture is more akin to Faroese due to their cultural connection to Scandinavia.
