My point was that as long as Scotland remains in the same country as England, she remains fair game to any Islamic extremists who want to do ill to UK. Once she exits UK this problem should largely solve itself.
And how is independence for Scotland the same as “severing economic ties with its largest trade partner”? Stop your ridiculous exaggerations! In any case, it isn’t as if the Scots can’t look to establish trade with other countries inside and outside the EU. What makes you think England is all that indispensable to the Scots?
Any damage from Scottish independence, in my view, would be felt mainly by London – just to name some -- possible loss of veto power in UNSC, not to mention having to apply again as a new member (read: Russian and Chinese vetoes) – likely reduced political and economic clout for London globally – possible weakened military, I can just visualize the Argentines baying at the Malvinas.
As for Wharfedale, your implied to Michael Thomas that he, poor thing, had to live next to some street, and possibly with Jihadists as neighbors unlike privileged creatures like yourself from posh neighborhoods that Jihadists can’t afford. I would think that Jihadists are not likely to target neighborhoods in which they have families and so, ironically, Michael Thomas should be safe. Yes, he’s probably much safer where he is next to the Jihadist families than you in your apparent high class neighbourhood.
