That's way over the top even by the Mails standards. Salmond's a twat a view not only shared by the English. But I do agree grovelling by our so called politicians is pitiful, playing right into the Seperatists hand. Embarrassing is an understatement and disrespectful in my opinion to the majority of the Scottish people.

Scotland will be a very sad place if they go it alone within 10 years
I do spend a lot of money in Scotland love the views . but will think twice about going to a place were they do not want English so would not go will stick to wales and the south to spend my cash I send the family to the tattoo ever year at a cost of over 17k will say good bye to that

Tank - Complete over reaction, the Welsh Nationlists will be next to jump on the bandwagon created by this pathetic attempt of grovelling and over the top promises by our woeful out of touch politicians and who can blame them.

Actually, I do greatly agree with Tanker.

If Scotland do split off from the UK, then 'Bollocks to them!'. I do feel greatly emotional about this and also extremely sad about it and my feelings do not have a great deal to do with what actually might be the 'reality' of the situation.

If this thing happens, then I will regard Scottish devolution as an unfriendly act. If they aren't 'for us' then they must be 'against us'. Thus I will not be at all 'pro the Scots' in any way, shape or form if they do split away and my wife and I will go on a personal crusade to try to boycott absolutely everything Scottish.

This will mean such things as say drinking, say Brandy instead of Whisky, no banking with any Scottish named banks, no salmon, no Crawfords 'tartan' shortbread, no visits to Scotland, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc.

It will mean my (our) development of a cold and an 'anti Scottish attitude' towards all Scots, and I would suppose this might end up being whether or not they live in the UK or Scotland.

In fact, I do admit to feeling some animosity towards the Scots for even considering it.

This may be a mystic over-reaction but I do admit to feeling 'emotional about it'. I am also somewhat afraid of this thing happening' and of the negative effects it will have my investments and also the GBP.

If Scottish devolution happens I believe it will be an utter disaster for the UK.

FFS!!! Let's wait and see what happens on the 18th before we start a war eh :0)

i feel i ought to be both mentally and emotionally engaged about this issue, but i confess i can raise no enthusiasm at all

whatever the polls may say, i think it would be very surprising indeed if the "yes" vote carried the day ...... for starters, who do they think will fund their health service, for i understand that this all currently comes from westminster?

anyway, even with a "no" vote, the scots will clearly gain another slab of autonomy

They can have all the autonomy they want, but let them pay for it themselves.

Manuel,

At your age you shouldn't attempt to do things beyond your abilities!

Max,

Treat them like a colony, because that is what many of the English realise Scotland is/was.

I think when Cameron is on the doorsteps in Scotland he should remind them about the greatness of the UK, the achievements of Maggie and what the queen has done for them.

Can I watch?

If it's a yes vote will the Queen still spend Christmas at Balmoral and will her Corgis need pet passports to get across the border?

The convention regarding nationality is almost certainly the same as when Ireland became independent in 1922. People from Ireland have residency rights in the UK and always have had even before they joined the EU. They can even vote in our elections if staying in the UK. There could be differences for anyone born after the independence date, but that might depend on whether Scotland joins the EU.

France misses EU budget deficit target
Finance minister Michel Sapin says Paris will not aim to reach required level of 3% of GDP until 2017, blaming slow economic growth and low inflation


tells you a fair bit about the state of the eu economies - uk apart!

I for one am fed up of hearing the name Alex Salmond and even more fed up of seeing the idiot on TV... Every time I see him I'm reminded of Mr Potato Head from Toy Storey...

I will along with all my family boycott all their scots products IFTHEY VOTE YES

MY VIEWS WILL SPEAD LIKE WILD FIRE .
