    How to get the Scots to vote YES

    I will be very sorry when the Scots vote for independence. The 'No' group is running such a negative campaign as with today's comments regarding the RN and shipbuilding.We know they'll get a big chunk of the surface fleet, army and RAF squadrons, keep the pound and carry on building our ships. They'll also kick out the nuke subs and carry on charging English students alone in Europe university fees. How many frigates will we keep? I reckon 12 which means 4 available at any time. We can't build ships and will probably give the Scots aid
    The whole thing is a depressing bloody shambles.

    I'm hoping they vote for Independence - it will be vetoed @ Westminster - and when they actually do get a taste of independence, they might realise how much they actually have to pay for on top of their deep fried mars bars.

    The oil and gas revenues will soon disappear because their manufacturing base is now so low.

    Glasgow will resemble Belfast during "The Troubles" despite this Commonwealth Games bonanza they will enjoy this year. And then they can go back to abusing and slugging each other at tribal football matches: Celtic v Rangers; Hearts v Hibernian; etc ad nauseam.

    Perhaps a Yes vote will encourage them to buy into some Infrastructure renewal at long last.

    Nonsuchmike,
    Do you realise how much work there is in Scotland, believe me I am a Southsea boy left when I was 18 and come back now and again. Now live in Scotland earning about A£150,00/yr and as far as work have never looked back where in Portsmouth could you earn that sort of money.Don't get me wrong I miss Pompey so much but you have to live where the work is.So please don't knock Scotland good and bad every where even Southampton.

    I could earn 150 grand a year but don't think my bum could handle it
