Should Scotland separate from Britain and become an independent nation?
Well it’s up to the Scots. I’d be sad to see them and England go their seperate ways as we have achieved a lot together, – defeated the Nazis, Napoleon, spread democracy around the world, built the biggest empire in the world, had the first industrial revolution and a lot of other things and the Scots played a massive role in all of this, it would be sad for UK to come to an end.

Because in 1503 Margaret Tudor eldest daughter of King Henry VII of England and Queen Elizabeth of York married King James IV of Scotland and they had a son. In 1513 King James IV was killed and his son became King James V of Scotland after his brief marriage to the King of France daughter who died he married, Marie de Guise (a French noblewoman) and her only surviving child was a daughter when King James died six days later in 1542 Mary became the internationally famous Mary Queen of Scots. After fourteen years in France and her brief marriage to the French King she returned to Scotland. In 1565 she married Lord Henry Stuart (more commonly known as Lord Darnley) and in June 1566 she gave birth to a son, James after the mysterious death of Lord Darnley and her disastrous marriage to James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell which caused in her remaining captive at Lochl
