Should Scotland be an Independent Country?

  • Yes

  • No


Results are only viewable after voting.
Dunno, maybe some of them are taking it personally like being dumped. I'm not too bothered either way, kind of hoping for a NO just to see what form of meltdown it induces in ST.

Meltdown <laugh>

When I wake up tomorrow I'l be preparing for the 2015 general election, whatever the result tonight.
 
For me it's because I genuinely am proud of what this island has achieved together. There is so much shared history of things we wouldn't have managed on our own. Lots of generations of my family have served in the armed forces so I've always had a degree of pride in being British. Which involves you ****s north of the border.

I genuinely believe we are all better off sticking together. It's not a case of you lot not managing on your own. It's the destruction of hundreds of years of hard work and shared bloodshed.

An to do it on the whims lies and smoke screen of that **** salmond.

Refreshing answer <ok>

Do you think England (and rUK) would be any worse off in the event of a Yes vote?
 
even if you win?

wow. you're a sad c**t

That's life Nevski. I've been on the winning and losing sides in elections. Seen friends lose their jobs and people getting elected who only stood to make up the numbers (including one occasion when a SNP list candidate exclaimed "oh f**, I've been elected. Ahm only a student!" in 2011's Holyrood election)

It's again debatable. There appears to be a massive black hole in salmonds financial projections. Confirmed by just about every banking and economist round the world. His figures just don't add up.

As to whether we will be worse off who knows. I think it's unlikely we will be worse off in the long term. Though I think it will sink us all back into a recession with all the uncertainty.
 
I know the definitive result won't be announced till around 7 on Friday morning, but is it worth staying up to watch the coverage tonight? Will we have a good idea who's won without staying up till silly o'clock?
 
Who the hell thought it was a good idea to keep the pubs open all night to wait for the poll results? I don't think they'll follow suit when we have the EU referendum...
 
what did you vote, Ian?

Voted No.

I think an independent Scotland could and would prosper in the long term, but the next decade could be a real struggle.

Having just got myself onto the property ladder, I don't feel it's the right time to take such a risk.

So it's a selfish and somewhat reluctant No for this bear.

No need to stay up when it's going to be a resounding NO
