Felixstowe is rammed, and quite a lot of people live north of the Trent, or the Humber for that matter.
Scotland's mainland is half the size of England's with a tenth of the population. Forth container port is tiny I think so most of Scotland's containerised and general cargo probably comes via English ports. If Scotland ends up as an independent country within the EU then there is plenty of scope to grow it, while England if not overcrowded is arguably short of good infrastructure and seems headed down the plughole. And if Nicola wants to grow the economy then the central belt is a reasonable place to start.
