That said: we can't really seperate the arguments for keeping the union from those for disolving it, they are two sides of the same coin really. |
Yeah, I agree they are two sides of the same coin and, within the context of an AN debate I guess it doesn't really matter too much. In reality, though, and if actual executable decisions were being made regarding Scottish independence, an argument
against the union is not as powerful or compelling as an argument
for independence.
