Is it time for England to let go?

Free prescriptions in Scotland and no tuition fees. Wales are going the same way. Benefits galore to Falkland Islanders and £millions per day to subsidise Northen Ireland

It's alright these people wanting to stay part of the UK, why wouldn't they?

It's all good as far as they're concerned.

Oil has been discovered off the Falklands so what we have invested over the centuries will be re-couped


Yeah. By Shell and BP.

Who pay tax and royalties on ever barrel of oil

Isn't it Libya who under Gaddafi started getting 70% of profit on every barrel.

Although im not so sure the people of the Falklands would like to be left to fend for themselves with the argies 10 feet away
 
Regarding the Falklands I'm not sure how the soldiers who won them back would feel if we turned our backs on them now, not to mention how the families of those that died would feel.

I would also ask whether we had a moral obligation to help these places out regardless of the cost, when you think of our past.

In these hard times, the country can't afford to be subsidising remote Islands and bits of land like the Falklands and Gibraltar. Closer to home, Northen Ireland is costing us £billions every year and Scotland and Wales are busy looking after their own, providing free tuition and further education, using England's money. Meanwhile all we ever hear about here are cutbacks, increased charges, taxes and austerity.

Great Britan is too expensive. Sod the empire. They're like a bunch of 40 year olds still living off the parents. Time to cut loose, get rid and look after the home fires.

Agree. Would be a good idea to dissolve of the Commonwealth too.

Okay, thats three times in three pages. Stop insinuating that the Welsh are free-loaders you boring, WUMing, IRA-respecting dribble of cock-snot.
Stick to what you know - fuck all.
