- The Scottish pound predates the English pound. #YouYesNow #IndyClan? It's TIME for #ScottishIndependence 🏴May 7, 2025 08:01
- Scotland needs its own currency to be a truly independent nation again. Scotland needs to be a currency issuer not just a currency user. One thing we DO NOT NEED is a 'ROYAL' bank of Scotland.
- We need the Scottish National Investment Bank. www.thebank.scot
- Westminster tried to scrap the Scottish banknotes in the mid-1820s. Sir Walter Scott created such a fuss that it didn't happen.
- I have not seen a Scottish 🏴 £1 green note for a long time. We have a long proud banking history, went wrong during the mad merger times.
- Aye, I started working in the Clydesdale Bank, taken over by National Australian Bank, then Virgin. It was a good, secure job - until it wasn't after the mergers. They changed the Scottish Bank Holidays to be in line with England and got rid of our regular annual Christmas bonuses. A month before it
- Hopefully the presses still exist somewhere at the Royal Mint so we can get an initial print run done soon as ! 😊
