    No currency union no debt.

    30,000 jobs from trident are you kidding me? I think you should look again at that! most fo those people are not Scottish and do not live in Scotland, those 30,000 jobs will be filled by the 39,000 jobs to be created in the oil sector, http://www.imeche.org/news/engin…

    Scarce resources exactly how do you figure that one?

    Clair

    Clair, the first fixed platform in the west of Shetland area, started producing in 2005. With an estimated eight billion barrels of oil in place, it is the largest oilfield in Europe. The field was discovered in 1977, but it was only with significant advances in technology and innovative engineering that the first phase of development was made possible. Clair Ridge, the £4.5 billion second phase of development, was confirmed in late 2011 and will see two new platforms installed and production starting in 2016. In 2013, a major appraisal drilling programme began to help define a possible third phase of development for Clair.

    This is just going to start to produce. LARGEST OIL FIELD IN EUROPE.

    This is some more oil which hasn't been touched yet, pretty horrible reading isn;t it regarding the will of the empire to lie to the people os Scotland on that one :'(
