- A Beginner’s Guide to Scottish Independence and Britain – Scotland is a nation, but not a state. The trouble begins when you try to explain the UK. It is not a nation, but a state. It is routinely described in our political conversations and on that fountain of wisdom, Wikipedia as ‘a unitary state’, when it is in fact a ‘union state’. You can see where confusions begin.

Dear ‘The State is Too Big’ people. Yes, You. – Martin’s Polemics
Posted on May 16, 2011 by Main Tumblr Feed copy
So, once we’re saving our share of the £130bn to replace Trident, £7bn to build aircraft carriers (with no planes to fly from them), Billions in Tax Dodging and so on, we shouldn’t have too much of a problem funding our education, health and social care needs.

Asked if Scotland or England & Wales benefited more from the Union, Scottish respondents tended to think it was quite even – 40% thought both partners benefitted equally, 32% that England and Wales benefitted more, 21% that Scotland benefits more. Scots also tended to think that both sides of the Union would be worse off if Scotland was independent. 43% thought England & Wales would be financially worse off without Scotland (only 14% thought they’d be better off), and 47% thought Scotland would be financially worse off if it became independent (28% thought Scotland would be better off). In Scotland, while a large minority support independence and think Scotland would be better off independent, the general view seems to be that the Union is a partnership that benefits both sides, roughly evenly.
