Both Blair and Scottish Tories, desperately seeking a foothold as the SNP move forwards with their public plans for independence, not just devolution, are trying to say Scotland would become isolated if it attained independence.

How stupid do they think everyone is? The EU needs an oil and gas rich member - thats Scotland not the 'UK'

Of course the 'UK' would be OFF the UN security council, the UN needs this little clique to be reformed anyway....

Just like, Bosnia, the Czech republic, the Slovak republic, Croatia , Lithunia, Latvia and numerous others of late, Scotland would be admitted to the UN as a full member, this is Londons big fear: the end of Empire guys, sorry.
