This is a twofer: 1) Scottish independence will damage the UKs global standing 2) The rUK (rest of the UK) should concede this and withdraw from the international arenaThe UK is already a small country (in terms of geographical area and population) punching above its weight. But with the loss of Scotland, the rUK will have a smaller population, area and GDP and so the rUKs reputation will take a hit and the country will be less respected internationally.Britain has had its heyday and its time for the country to take a step back and be replaced by the likes of the G4 nations (Brazil, Germany, Japan, India) and other emerging powers. Therefore the rUK should scale back its military and diplomatic reach and give up its UN Security Council seat.Hello, users of CMV! This is a footnote from your moderators.
