Up here in Scotland, the SNP and their cult members don't actually sell you anything solid and positive, backed up with facts. It's all buzzwords and slogans like "Hope over Fear" or "We can do it". They might as well just ask BBC Scotland to play Braveheart on an endless loop. They believe that England is stealing their electricity; you tell them that Scotland does not own any electricity, and the electricity they are actually speaking about is owned by a Spanish Company. It's the same with the water; they believe an independent Scotland will make endless cash selling water to England.
And in that article where it says Northern Ireland leaders, that is leaders that has the blood of many women and children on their hands.
It's the politics of resentment. Not saying England is without fault, but they think England is holding Scotland by the balls. The average English person is way more moderate than they paint.
Even if they are pro-independence, it's better to do it without engaging in the politics of resentment. It will just lead to more stupid nationalism down here south of the border - more reform bullshit.

it's because nationalism is the opium of the masses right now.
