Oh dear me, Almost sounds like a Mel Gibson speech.
I did point out your Financial Times post was six years out of date and written when oil prices were sky high. That is no longer the case and unlikely to ever be the case, so the article is irrelevant. But don't let that stop you believing it!
I provided you with a link to the IFS (Caithness.Org use the IFS figures all the time, so therefore a very trustworth source, not some Conservative intern!)
I will also provide a link from Fullfact a completely independant fact checking organisation with NO political affiliation

It's good to see you posting about a healthy trade surplus. Scotland still runs at a technical deficit of billions each year
despite this
Your problem appears to be that you will not accept facts, but rely on the hype churned out by the SNP.
Next you will be posting about Nicolas Health Protection Bill. Did you know that Trump is going to insist we repaint all the white lines on our roads yellow? The SNP will introduce a bill to stop that when you point it out to them. It's a Bill to instil fear in the minds of the gullible. I've pointed it out to you that it wont happen.
This is a link to Nicola speaking some sense (you should really read it). Unlike you, she accepts that a majority of MP's will not be enough to trigger Indy2, sorry to disappoint you on a lovely Friday

The relevant part, to save you reading the whole article
She also pointed out that the SNP has previously won a majority of the Scottish seats in a general election on a minority of the votes - and argued that "nobody in Europe would listen to me in terms of the legitimacy of that" if she was to claim it was a mandate for independence.
I think that's covered everything, apart from you explaining how an independant Scotland would fund the £15 billion deficit each year, but don't worry I'm sure you have better things to do today. On that note I'm fed up having to repeat facts that you ignore, so I'm NOT going to respond to anymore posts on this thread.
