Letters / Independence is normal
Denmark, Finland, Sweden, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Singapore, Ireland, Malta, Luxembourg, Israel, Australia, Iceland, Belgium, Estonia, Austria, Chile, Uruguay. These are some examples of successful small independent countries throughout the world.
With greater resources and wealth than most of these countries Scotland is perfectly capable of being an independent nation.
