For starters, giving Scotland a 60% hurdle when the Brexit vote just needed a simple majority is just going to inflame matters and play to the nationalist cause. And rejoin upto two years incentives Scots to give it a go as there is a lifeboat waiting if it all goes pear-shaped.
I'll leave it here.

Could be wrong - you might be able to dig something up.
Some people on this thread seem to think you're some sort of economist. I don't!

Andrew, my post was a straight criticism of my friend jfman's argumentative approach.
As to my list, I set the bar higher than could be realistically achieved. I definitely want to avoid the 52/48 situation that dogged Brexit. I also wouldn't want to let the Scots get away with milking the UK - much in my sod 'em vein if they really vote for independence.
