There's a rather interesting piece on the BBC site on the impact of a Yes vote.Originally posted by Batcher View PostThanks for posting.
These are some of the reasons we want independence. Scotland is neglected by Westminster and these figures prove it.
After a Yes vote many of Scotland's major employers will be neglecting Scotland rather a lot.....Comment

errr in the EU sharing a currency with no central Bank? You sure, you 100% sure?Originally posted by SueEllen View PostScotland will be in the EU using GP so why would they?
Can't quite understand why Yes voters fail to grasp that there will be no shared currency. It would be political suicide for any RUK party to concede to such a request and, as such, no RUK government is going to agree to it.
Face it, the SNP didn't do all the clever stuff ahead of time - it was difficult for them as they were limited by time. They hope that there is a currency union. They hope that they can get EU membership via Clause 48. They hope that it's all going to be OK. They hope that if there is no currency union then they can get into the EU without a central bank.
Scotland has a currency union and with DevMax we'd have enough control of our finances to satisfy most people. There wouldn't be an presidential car for Salmond - but I could live with that.
