    For the record I would not mind letting the Scots get on with it because it would wipe out any chance of Labour ever having power again but:

    If you think that the big UK co's (all based down here I might add!) will leave a penny in Scotland's pockets when they have finished working out how to untangle the laws,trade, It systems and
    pension funds you are deluded. On average I get at least 2 calls a month about roles at RBS. If the jocks can't find anyone to draw Visio diagrams you have no hope of staffing the sorts of people that will be needed to sort out the mess that will be caused.

    I am surprised that the likes of PWC and Delloite are not sponsoring the devolution.

    Shame they didn't put some of the money into education.
    A tax on how many poles they let in the country to do their plumbing ?

    You're worse than a "plastic paddy" and a "Champagne Socialist"! Germany is your country now.

    About time they all grew up and grew some.
    Yes indeed. No more sucking off mummy's nipple.

    It's about time you feckless drunken wazzacks owned up to your own problems and stopped blaming your ills on others.

    Did you know Edinburgh used to be an independent city? It's part of the reason why the tenements are so tall as land quickly became scarce. A wall used to surround the city long ago.
    And it would be better off being a city state now, it won't happen though

    I dream of the taxation system branch and rewrite, dream of it.

    It will be chaos, it will be massive, it will take years and the unions will be in going tonto at the slightest suggestion of offshore resources.
