I hope Scotland doesn't leave as The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland will have it's name changed and most likely the flag! :L
Also one thing to note is that parliament has refused to plan with Scotland if it is voted to leave so I'm not sure weather they don't think it will be majority yes or they just want to play difficult.

Either way just got to see how it plays out; It doesn't really affect me what happens.

If I were Scottish I'd vote no - I really hope they don't leave.

Voting no, better together

what i wanna know is.. what happens to the army then? do they still have scottish regiments in the british army if people vote yes?

what will happen to health care? will it still be free?

where are you getting your money from if so to keep it free?

I've heard you also wont be allowed to use the pound, so whats going to happen then?

And i think most of you guys think the EU will let you be a part of them... lol i doubt that but yeah.

I dont live in scotland anymore so i dont really care. but if i did i wouldnt be voting yes.

As far as I'm aware, Scottish troops will be given the choice to stay so presumably some will remain.

At this point it's basically a split between people who actually understand politics and people who think it's cool to hate the English

That's what the white paper is for. Currency wise Salmond would probably win if his claim that not using the pound would absolve them of their responsibility towards the national debt were legitimate.

No he wouldn't. He's so absorbed by the idea a currency union is certain that he won't even talk about a back up plan as seen in the debate.
