    That's true, because all of the tax money raised in Scotland goes south of Gretna. The VAT only goes one way as we don't get any of that back.

    Glad to see you agree with us

    Technically the PM is still the PM of Scotland; but it does look desperate.

    Really? Thanks for looking after my welfare but I'm managing just fine without one.

    Oh dear. Downing Street attempt to fly the Saltire to show how much they love Scotland

    To me, it actually looks like they are supporting independence by flying the Saltire. Surely the Better Together mob should be flying the Butcher's Apron?

    As I believe she will still be head of state, I guess so. But dont the Scots have their own terrible ways of punishing treasonous politicians? Drowned in Porridge, battered and deep fried, or simply moaned, swore- and shouted-at to death by a Malcolm Tuckerish sort of character.

    edit: With an 'All of the above' option too, of course

    I am hoping that they stay until the referendum. Then when it's yes we can get the border controls up and not let them back.

    Looks like Its going to be a yes.

    Especially as its just a simple majority required.
    It looks like it may be a yes. But you can still get better than 2/1 on a Yes vote.
