Slightly awkward for the guess camp who have made a big hoo hah about Scotland being nuclear free after independence.

Quote:
More Scots believe Trident nuclear missiles should stay in the country if it becomes independent than think the weapons should be removed, according to a poll.
The National Attitudes survey found 41% of people north of the border said that if there is a Yes vote in September's referendum, Britain's nuclear submarines - currently sited on the Faslane base on the Clyde - could continue to be based there.
But 37% do not agree with the weapons remaining in Scotland if the country votes for independence.

Slightly related but assuming Salmond gets a yes vote, gets independence, gets rid of Faslane and gets into NATO (A lot of assumptions but that's the SNP way) would he bar nuclear powered and armed vessels from Scottish waters during exercises and visits?
