They do it but with vastly increased costs. I'd prefer not paying £3 to send a Christmas card to relatives down south.

It's not scaremongering it's showing the yes camp want independence whatever the cost.

VAT on everything? - Worth it to get away from Westminster
Huge increases in communication costs - Worth it to get away from Westminster
Tax rises to fund a 'fairer society' - Worth it to get away from Westminster

Salmond, having moved on from admiring Ireland and Iceland since they are basket cases, now wants to be like Norway only without the huge cost of living increases.
The whole yes camp is deluded and dangerous enough to trot out any story with no care for the long impact. I mean they are happy to associate themselves with that wings over Scotland lunatic despite his 9/11 and Hillsborough comments.

He's pledged to renationalise it, just like most pledges the costs haven't been thought of.
