@gusfromscotland.bsky.social#Jacobites have never recognised the creation of Kingdom of #GreatBritain in 1707 with their cry, 'No Union'!
If #SNP leadership were to declare #UDI , they could suffer same fate as Pro independence Catalonia politicians, who were jailed for declaring #Catalonia independence from #Spain in 2017.
@gusfromscotland.bsky.socialThe Kingdom & state of #GreatBritain was formed on 1st May 1707.
And if you know the #history it's enough to get the facts right.
History matters in the age of internet, where anyone on the internet can write nonsense.
@gusfromscotland.bsky.socialI live in the country called the Kingdom of #GreatBritain that was formed on 1st May 1707.

@gusfromscotland.bsky.social#GreatBritain is the name of the country & state from 1707 & that's fact.
@gusfromscotland.bsky.socialIt's called #UK today, but the actual document in 1707 states the creation of #GreatBritain.. new Kingdom & new state.
Team GB exists for cycling & athletics, but not football.
GB is the country, nation, & state.
@gusfromscotland.bsky.socialThe country is #GreatBritain
If #Scotland quits GB, #England loses too.
The whole is greater than sum of its parts.
🏴 + 🏴 = 🇬🇧

@gusfromscotland.bsky.socialThey would if they understood security of #England is dependent on #Scotland like Faslane. 🏴 has no deep sea lochs. #America won't agree to partition of the island of Britain.
The state is #GreatBritain, not England, not Scotland.
If Scotland quits UK it could oppose foreign & defence policy of rUK.
