CAN I ask all of the Scots out there who read The Bolton News, how are you going to protect your people and your country if you separate from Britain.?

The English taxpayer, via parliament, pays for the upkeep of Scottish regiments, weapons/equipment/training etc.

So, just how will the SNP afford to police the towns and cities of Scotland and afford to keep their hospitals open as well as protect their shoreline and fishing waters? For if they really want to separate from us, then we must pull the plug on all funding going to Scotland.
