The lesson drummed into us is this, for every millionaire there’s ten thousand struggling poor, a bizarre argument for sustaining English rule. One place where there’s definitely no collusion is between the British State’s brains and its mouth.
Scotland’s oil reserves were always marked down, an understandable sleight-of-hand because England snaffles the lot. A thief will always try to reduce the amount he has stolen so that you feel less motivated to string him up, but he will boast the real amount to his pals for the kudos. Thus, it took non-Scottish based economists to tell us the truth.
One of the world’s most respected Irish economists David McWilliams explained in detail why Scotland would thrive as an independent nation, and why the economic potential of Scotland is actually in a stranglehold while it remains a part of the UK.
McWilliams is well respected because he also correctly predicted the global financial crash of 2008. Now of course, this was not reported in UK media, but it was on Irish news. Interestingly, he also predicted that the Scottish independence vote would change Scotland’s relationship with the UK Government forever.
