The VP Scottish Independence referendum

[Steve]

What do we think?

[Barman]

I voted 'Yes'...

Everything has changed now.... even if the referendum vote is 'No' we'll swiftly move into the Neverendum phase until they get what they want...

Then they'll either decide that they may as well leave - being in effect an independent country anyway - or the rUK will insist that they do.....

Same here.

Let them have a go on their own and see how they get on.

I was against separation until recently when Westminster decided to give more devolved powers to Scotland if they stay. To me it seems that the Scots will get their cake and eat it as well. (with us southerners paying) Let them go I say.

[Steve]

I'm still agin separation.  Bad for both Scots and English

The vindictive part of me wants to see the bastards go and then get themselves in deep shit over currencies, visas, passports, the EU, the economy, taxation and everything else. BUT the economic and constitutional damage to us would be immense, so no.

I have reached the point where I"m indifferent to the whole thing as either way the rest of the UK is screwed. If there is a yes vote then the ramifications for what is left of the UK politically, culturally and economically will be massive. On the other hand, if there is a no vote then Cameron, following in the tradition of PM's with Scottish connections we will be made to pay for luxuries for the Scots that we are not entitled to here such as free university places and prescriptions.

I have to admit there is a part of me that wonders if there is a basis for a legal challenge about these payments as it discriminates against the rest of the UK who are denied free access to these services...

Just let it be over .....bored to the back of my eyelids with it all

Don't forget free care for us elders - regardless of means . . .

I'm with you on this one, except that I don't believe that there would be any economic damage, each Scot already costs the taxpayer £1,600 p.a. more than it spends on each person in England. As for the constitution, the pollies have been riding roughshod over that since the Blair government.

For those still struggling to decide

So if Scotland votes yes then they own Doncaster as well?

 

 

 

If you are trying to convince me independence is a good idea you are starting to make a convincing argument
