I base it on normality and the view that medium sized countries sized countries with first world infrastructure who govern themselves provide better outcomes for the people living in that country.

Even if it makes us poorer?
I think it’s unlikely to make us poorer, but staying in the Boris’ Brexit Britain will certainly make us poorer.

Show me figures that make it ‘unlikely’.
I won’t.

That’s correct. I can’t give you something that doesn’t yet exist. I note that I have engaged with every point of yours, while you have fastidiously avoid every point put to you by me.

Timidity indicative of a lack of confidence on your part.

You’re the one refusing to believe figures produced by the Scottish government that they hung an independence hat on..they then commissioned a growth report which used the same government data. Go on the SG website and they’ll tell you the figures are the ONLY thing they can base an economic case on.

You’ve that much confidence you can’t provide anything other than ‘ I don’t believe them’.

Indicative of a cultist.

Every country that has ever become independent from the UK has been told it doesn’t have what it takes. Not one has ever sought return to Westminster rule. Scotland is a medium sized modern nation, with many advantages other countries do not have. A country like Scotland is very well placed to be independent. And it will be.

As a tribal unionist, will you be hoping for an independent Scotland to fail?

What advantages do we have that other countries don’t?

You will have to answer my most recent question to me, before I continue the courtesy of answering your questions.

I hope you do, but something tells me you won’t.

You’ve made assertions with nothing to back them up.
Indicative of a cultist.
I’ve merely pointed out figures accepted by the Scottish government.

I hope you will answer, but something tells me you can’t.
