    It should be made explicitly clear to them under no circumstances that we will not bail them out.

    If Scotland get independence then I can claim every BFC match is a European tour. Silver lining and all that.

    If they vote yes they should have to pay every penny it costs to make the changes needed as it is their decision. Why should we pay for what they choose!

    If they vote Yes and then they realize the true implications and the cost they will be screaming to stay in the Union.
    The Scots will be voting for a poorer standard of living and will become the Poland of Europe.

    They could have Andy Murray all to themselves, and would Sir Chris Hoy and Sir Sean Connery then become just Chris Hoy and Sean Connery...Do they give knighthoods and honours out to foreigners??

    We should also invade them on the 19th and claim full control, they'll have no army to defend themselves.

    If the Sweaty Socks do get independence, then for me, no future bail out options from England.

    What exactly is going to be the glue that holds this new independent country together? Am I missing something, or is it just wishful thinking on their part?

    Their Economy aint strong enough to prosper and grow. Who will pay for their defence budget? When it starts to go tits up, which countries will they flee to?

    Im sorry if this sounds negative, its not meant to be, its just my thoughts the matter......at the moment,there is no right and wrong answer......but we will soon see.

    Maybe they will, who's to say they aren't the richest of the union .can't see any assets in England to give us the upper hand and lord it over the rest of the union .once camereons cronies have alienated us from Europe and the yanks abandon us to trade with them it'll be us wi cap in hand.all cos er them arrogant cnuts in Westminster.
