The proposed separation date is just another one of Alex Salmond's assertions. Unlike the currency and EU membship, that one hasn't come under any scrutiny - yet. In the unlikely event of a Yes vote, the negotiations will take as long as they take, and won't be subject to a timetable dictated by the SNP, who continually forget that most of their promises hinge on the goodwill of people and organisations they have spent the last 18 months royally slagging off at every opportunity.

Even so, I suspect Mr A may have been chuckling at Ed's presumption of being Prime Minister after next May. Or ever.
