Cable Forum - Will Scotland Leave the UK?

Standard Life is in talks to buy a large office development in the City of London that could serve as its headquarters if Scotland votes for independence in September.

Independent Scotland £1???

Having had several lovely holidays in Scotland I have found, nearly always, that this is the attitude of the people. Good for them and here's to the No vote!

"Scottish independence: Salmond in need of poll boost from televised debate"

"Scotland is on course to vote No to independence in September's referendum by a margin of 57 to 43 per cent, according to a “poll of polls” for The Independent.

Despite the heated battle between supporters and opponents of a breakaway, public opinion appears remarkably unchanged. Since March, the Yes and No camps have been within one percentage point of their current average rating."

Well if Scotland does go independent the US company I worked for which has slowly been moving moving to Scotland will move back to England.

I'm not sure if this clip has been posted on here before, but Lloyd Quinan says all of you that are going to vote no are actually bad parents. It's a couple of months old, so if it has been posted before then I need to pay more attention :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dn2b...ature=youtu.be

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

Such a shame that the English don't get a vote. Of the people I know, we would all vote yes for independence. So why wasn't this vote made UK wide?

More like the English should decide if England wants independance from the rest of the UK, there's polls on here showing a clear majority of English favouring independance.

I'm sure that's a varied and authoritative group :rolleyes:

You don't get regions of a country deciding to cast off others, in Scotland's case a nation wants to decide on its own destiny and is getting that chance.

If rUK started ditching problem areas then you'd have Lomdon going it alone and a lot of basket case wastelands.

London could go it alone, happily.

We just charge them a hell of a lot more for their food and milk, etc.

We'd soon distribute the wealth, we'd Also control all Imports and exports via road and rail.

We'd also tax all the workers that commute into London.
