Us scots like to blame the Tories and middle England for all our woes, if we go it alone then any blame will be our own. I don't trust any politicians, I've got MSP's, MP's and MEP's looking after me and things don't look any better than they did ten years ago. Salmonds making plenty of promises but how does he intend to pay for them, he can't even tell us what currency an independent Scotland would use.

You can bet your bottom Scottish dollar that whatever happens Mr S will not be a poor man but his kilted buddies better watch their backs as they will be the ones to suffer but Mr S will be long gone.

There is a lack of definite answers, will we (scots) be in the EU, I've heard we won't, so will have to set up border controls on the English border? Will we have to get visas to go to the Costas? Will companies move offices south of the border? What happens to the NHS, MoD, nuclear submarine bases, pensions, national grid, the pound, it's a total can of worms. What politicians say and what they deliver are often two different things, it's a gamble I'm not prepared to take.
I'm disillusioned with Britain and am thinking of moving abroad anyway, why be unhappy here when I could be unhappy some place warmer.

That's Standard Life threatening to quit Scotland if there is a yes vote, and I don't think they will be the last.
