I see you don't have a clue. There is as much oil in the West of Scotland as there is in the North Sea. Why do think Westminster is so keen to keep Scotland in the Union.

Even the oil in the North Sea will last 50 years, whereas your oil runs out on the 19th September. <ok>

Ex-RBS boss says Scottish Independence opportunity

Campaigners for the Union have been accused of &#8220;scaremongering&#8221; about the impact of independence on Scotland&#8217;s financial sector, with a former Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) boss insisting this would be &#8220;an opportunity not a threat&#8221;.

Sir George Mathewson, a former RBS chief executive and chairman, argued that financial services in Scotland had been &#8220;neglected by the Westminster government and its London-centric policy&#8221;.

He also claimed that banks such as RBS and Lloyds could &#8220;scarcely be described as Scottish banks&#8221;, adding that if there was a Yes vote in next month&#8217;s referendum it should be the rest of the UK government that should be primarily responsible for dealing with the situation.

Sir George also gave his backing to Scottish Government plans for a currency union with the rest of the UK to be established if there is a Yes vote on September 18, allowing an independent Scotland to continue to use the pound.

Former SNP Lord Provost urges Alex Salmond to halt independence drive

Alex Murray tells the First Minister to 'slam on the brakes' because he has no answers on a separate Scotland's currency and EU status.

"Mr Murray argued that the SNP had performed about-turns on so many issues such as the monarchy and Nato membership that it was effectively arguing for federalism instead of independence."

Therein, lies the problem.

How is that a problem?

The SNP argued for a Devo-max question and Westminister rejected it.
