It's when nationalism becomes chauvinistic that I have the problem.

Well said that man! Nationalism itself isn't actually bad it's imperial attitudes (including racism) that are bad. The right to independence can be termed as 'nationalism' but really it's about equality with our fellow nations.

I don't see my solidarity with the Scottish people to be one of nationalism. Rather, I see it as part of my opposition to imperialism. Scotland has great wealth for which it should have the right to use to create a more egalitarian society. I don't technically support "nationalism," but I do support moves to use resources to create more equality. That's why I support Scottish independence.

Yeah we might have done some good things together in the past but the fact is the relationship is now rotten and it's time for divorce. England and Scotland can have a new friendship as equals however being ruled by London is just not good enough any longer.

Since WWII a lot of former countries who were regarded as 'possessions' have left British hands. Under international law Scotland's oil belongs to us. Many Scots died in the spanish civil war so the implication that we might not have fought against Hitler without English influence is just pure b*llocks.

Just like to say 'Hands off our oil!' Ha, and now you thinking Im a scottish nationalist, No, Im a Brit who thinks the BRITISH defended this island from invasion only 67 years ago, as a result all natural resources should benefit all Britons, would you dare say to an English pensioner who was a Spitfire pilot in the Battle of Britain they have no claim to benefit from North Sea oil revenues? A lot more claim than many residing in Scotland today.
