So, the future has arrived.
I'm intrigued to know how an independent Scotland thinks it is going to exist in an ever tightening Euro zone with monetary and fiscal union, stripped of all sovereignty...especially as collecting their own taxes and spending their own money…and being “Scottish” is at the centre of their case for independence.
I don't think an independence vote would win anyway at the moment...but love Alex Salmond's tactic of trying for a referendum in a year with a few emotive factors. Ryder Cup, Commonwealth Games, 700 year anniversary of Bannockburn.
Also the attempt to give 16 and 17 year olds the chance to vote is devious too...as I'd imagine there are fucking loads of chavvy 14 and 15 year olds who can be persuaded to vote Yes in the next 2 years.
I reckon the English should be given the referendum.

Who cares how they will fare.
Bye Scotland.
