Sturgeon has been a millstone around the necks of the English taxpayers and our Westminster government for years, it's time Scotland had their independence back and went it alone, it won't be an easy win for her as those free university tuition fees and free health prescriptions will be a huge incentive for some of the Scottish citizens to give her the finger.
If she gets her way in this new independence referendum stunt of hers it might be time for this government to lay down the terms of just what Scotland will be losing.
No more Barnett formula money, create your own Scottish currency and also pay your fair share of the National debt to name but three of them, if they agree to that and the many other side effects of this unsanctioned vote of hers the UK should grant them their wish and state in a legally binding document that there's no way back into the UK when it all goes sour.
The Barnett formula

The Barnett formula is a mechanism used by the Treasury in the United Kingdom to automatically adjust the amounts of public expenditure allocated to Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales to reflect changes in spending levels allocated to public services in England, Scotland and Wales, as appropriate.

If only we in England could vote on this matter, the SNP would have been sent packing from England in 2014 with howls of laughter ringing in their ears.
