No to the EU - yes to the Groat

Calton has long been saying that if we truly want independence, we need to have our own currency. Better Nation agrees with this in a recent post. Where Calton differs with them is in their view that it would be unthinkable for Scotland to be outside of the EU. Why? Do they really think that a small nation like Scotland is going to have much of a voice in an EU increasingly dominated by Germany? Why should Scots vote Yes to independence from the rest of the UK simply to be part of a larger union? It doesn't make sense. What does make sense to Calton is an independent Scotland, with its own currency, outside the EU. If the SNP can't offer that, we'd be better off voting No.
