 Turncoat Scot chancellor Brown out of his depth  
This man has spent years clinging to Blairs coat-tails and eating scraps from Westminsters
table. His comments to a set of 'party activists' IE SCOTS TURNED TRAITORS in Edinburgh
show his incredble lack of common sense.
The SNP are only to aware of the costs involved in establishing fiscal autonomy BEFORE 
full independence. But heres what would NOT happen.
 
  We would not waste millions opening embassies world wide on day one
 We would save millions by NOT paying into NATO (US puppet) and Englands armed forces
 We would millions by NOT helping to pay off Englands national debt
 We would save millions by going to the Euro and dumping the over valued, US friendly pound
 We would garner European support as the MOST important EU oil/gas producing state
 We would save millions by selling OUR oil and gas in Euros
 We would save millions by closing down the Scottish office. London could deal directly with the Scottish parliament
 We would encourage business NOT harm it by working with business, rather than against it as Blair does
 We would save millions by scrapping ANY contribution  towards the upkeep of weapons of mass destruction e.g. trident
