    These are the reasons why you must vote against independence.

    •There is a gap between public spending in Scotland (£40bn) and revenue raised there (£27bn). A Scottish government would have to choose between higher taxes and cuts in public services.

    •Scotland has more influence in Brussels as part of the UK than it could have as an independent state.

    •The integrated British economy is more capable than an independent Scotland would be of meeting the challenges of globalisation. Likewise, having independent defence and security structures would overstrain Scotland's resources.

    Salmond arrogantly assumed that Europe would accept and independent Scotland. Then got caught with his pants down knobbing Sturgeon up the dunger on Princess Street.

    If I was English, I'd be urging all Scots to vote Yes.

    Serious question to English posters; if the Scots vote yes would you have us back again?

    I'm with you Dan. I want **** all to do with Europe which is basically a stitch up between The Bosch and unhygienic Frog Collaborators.

    Current spending on services. This level cannot be sustained in Scotland if the UK breaks up. <ok>
