Declare independence, restore the Stuarts, then invade England to bring about the Restoration.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Of course the current Jacobite claimant is some German so really you would just be exchanging Germans for Germans at this point :P

As long as it's the correct German.  :mad:

They should import all of the people in America who claim Scottish ancestry, then sell the vital bodily parts of these people to fund their new independent nation.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

I never claimed Scottish ancestry.  Scottish ancestry claimed me :(

They should consider hiring a Scottish actor as king.

While still more favored keeping Queen than not, I believe polls before last independence run had the % wanting to keep the monarchy at much lower levels than the wider UK.
