Yeah, you could very well be right! Would you, on the other hand not think their oil reserves etc are enough to be able to finance themselves? (genuine question, I don’t know enough about the situation!)
One of the criticisms of the original indie plan was it assumed quite a high price for oil, which has since crashed, which would have blown a massive hole in Scotland’s finances because it was a large part of the theoretical income of the country. Probably falls into the “nice to have” category and not in the “structure your public spending based on it” category.
I’m just hoping Scotland will become independent and joins the EU again on its own. Although I have no idea if that would be possible…
