£1 A YEAR TO PROTECT SCOTLAND FROM WESTMINSTER

Earlier in July 2013 the UK Treasury after months of number crunching announced that each Scot would be a total of £1 a year worse of under independence.

In other words for £1 a year according to the UK Government you would never have to endure the economic and social misery of another Conservative, CONDEM or UK Labour Government again (at least in foreseeable future). This would mean you would never again be penalized for being  poor, old, ill or disabled, or suffer the pain of watching young service people being killed in illegal wars or occupations.

With each passing day, it becomes more difficult to support a union  that really doesn’t exist anyway. How is defensible to stay in a country which is promoting inequality and social injustice when we have the opportunity to leave it behind?

With each passing week, it becomes more difficult to support a union that doesn't really exist anyway. Morally, it may soon become indefensible to remain in a state that rewards corruption and promotes inequality when you have an opportunity to leave it behind.

SCOTS LUCKY INHERITANCE SQUANDERED BY RESOURCE GRABBING UK

Scotland is one of the few countries in the world to have discovered oil and gotten poorer.

We discovered oil and got poorer

This inheritance has been squandered in the UK, and once the oil runs out if Scotland does not leave the UK it will be left with nothing but the rusting hulks of a once great industry.

A squandered inheritance within the UK

To take a few examples from around the world.
Norway has an oil fund to which it constantly contributes, which its future citizens will be able to call on when required when the oil the runs out. This has been replicated in the province of Alberta in Canada and other countries in the world that have had the luck to have major mineral resources within their boundaries.

An independent Scotland won’t be lacking friends

An independent Scotland won't be lacking friends, either. Of matters concerning oil and Europe in an independent Scotland, the Norwegian government officials recently consulted in Oslo last month indicated that they would be pleased to assist the new country. "Come and talk to us before you commit to the EU," they said, "and let us advise you how to manage your oil fund and how to negotiate with the oil companies."
I hope the Scots will have the intelligence to vote for this major opportunity and not squander yet another one.
