I mean idk the Scots are acting like the English are equivalent to jihadis in terms of wanting to usurp them lol

The only thing I’d miss if the Scots left the union would be the flag. Until they came back begging to unite again after fifty years

There isn’t much point letting them leave hell idk why you lot humor the idea of an option

It’s like if California wanted to leave the US

Like no your not going anywhere

California does want to leave the union. The could if they wanted to

Lets say Scotland leaves the UK; they cant keep the GBP since those rates are determined by the bank of England so either new currency or latch onto another, the only industry they have is shipbuilding and most of that is locked into the MoD which will move south to newcastle if Scotland leaves, in terms of resources assume that the UK does not contest the offshore oil and they get it the EU they want to join has new green policy coming that means it will be almost as costly to take that oil, they will have to cut their public services due to the fact they will no longer be subsidised by the English (Barnett Formula) which means no more free education either, the EU wont give them more money because at that point they will potentially not be in the EU and even if they are they wont recieve more, and lets say they manage to join the EU a nation of less than 10 million is going to join a bloc of half a billion, they wont have 60 seats there they will get 3 maybe 4 and be mostly ignored more so than they are now

TLDR

@Kash no they couldn’t

If the south couldn’t leave in the 1840s they sure as fuck wouldn’t let California leave now

Scotland loses no matter what it does

But the bottom line it will curb the nationalists

And teach them a lesson

@ubermensch "The Supreme Court ruled in Texas v. White in 1869 that no state can unilaterally leave the Union. Secession would require a US Constitutional amendment approved by two-thirds majorities in the US House of Representatives and Senate, then ratification by 38 state legislatures." - https://en.m.wikipedia.org › wiki › Yes_California

Cali is a cesspit anyways, just let mexico have it

@Kash do you imagine that ever happening? Doubtful

@Vander Loonéy no why would we give it up? Let’s just take it back from the dam democrats that’s have ruined it.

@ubermensch Essentially they could secede but they contribute like 30% of your GDP so the rest would hold them hostage

Same as what happened to catalan

And literally are exporting their cancer in the form of their precious residents acting like locusts

And infesting local politics in other state’s

"were free, but you cant leave unless we say you can" <:PepeL:625351341656506378>

a small price to pay for billions in taxes

@ubermensch

@ubermensch You gonna waste so much resources on removing all thos ecommies

Idk mate when the shit on the street starts catching fire and the firefighters are all dead from the bubonic plague I'm sure the other states will reconsider the usefulnes of california

Giving up California would be a disgrace

Just coup the Dems out fucking godfather style

America should cut california tbh

It will fail on its own...

the only reason its picked is because of its usefulness to the USA, when its not apart of the USA that usefulness is gone

California wouldn't fail tho, it makes too much money

Can still fail

Would not be American any more

can but wouldn't

It can fail if it incurs more stupidity by the fact it’s policies literally are killing it

lbf California isn't American now @Storin

Literally kick it out, build a wall around it, then have a state charge less taxes and watch them move out of cali

California would turn into Venezuela 2.0 before a week passed

Businesses that is

Literally the EU is afraid of the UK doing the same thing with corp tax and undercutting everyone
