    Whether or not that's true (it isn't), it's an interesting reflection on your character that you're hoping for the worst.

    You clearly don't understand anything. What they look forward to is a bright and prosperous future, freed from the shackles of the oppressive English.

    And will be supported in their old age by the income from the massive oil-backed sovereign wealth fund that will be established on day 1.

    I still don't get what the "Out" Scots want. To leave the Uk, only to replace the largely benign Uk government with the EU? To lose the funding from the Uk, alongside a long-term collapse in oil price? To lose tens of thousands of Uk public sector jobs while only having three people and dog working in the private sector?

    The SNP want to scrap Trident, along presumably with the thousands of supporting jobs on the Clyde.

    Fine, if Scotland wants to leave, then let them go. I just don't see what they expect their future to look like, other than bleak and impoverished.

    I hope she/the SNP get the most almighty hammering. With both the Indy Ref and Brexit vote I was prepared to accept the outcome should it have not gone the way I hoped. Does an already damaged Scotland have the stomach for this?

    If you breakdown the 55% that voted no you'll find the majority of them were not Scot's. In fact they were mostly EU nationals, and folks from England. What's the housing situation like in Scotland? I get a feeling 16 million people might want to move up there if they gain independence. I imagine a great many number of concerned EU nationals will likely vote for independence this time round.

    Very interesting times ahead.
