Looking at the date for the referendum and increasingly looks like yes Scotland have an uphill struggle....

Armed forces day to be held in stirling. The commonwealth games in Glasgow. If 2012 taught us anything these events will increase the sense of Britishness and could jeopardise their campaign.

Iam an extremly anti british person myself but my major fear is that the IMF/world bank swallow us up itno either forcing us into the euro or debt to start our own currency and we end up like Greece/Spain/italy/Ireland/Portugal to name a few and we will all suffer. Alex Sammon want his name in the hisyory books for Scotland 'freedom' and nothing else. Hence why i will be viting NO!

It's the very fact that Scotland will retain Sterling as our currency whatever happens that ensures the IMF/ World Bank or whoever can't swallow Scotland up.

Unfortunately for the Nats, it's also what ensures Scotland can never be truly separate from the rest of the UK.

You can't be truly separate from a nation with which you share a currency.

As of now, nobody knows but all EU member states would have to agree to Scotland being a member.

Those countries with regions pushing for separation (like Spain) are unlikely to vote in favour of Scotland becoming a member.

That my my point with the OP. MOD choosing stirling fir armed forces day. I presume that was a political move. I suspect will see a much stronger presence from the queen at holyrood and balmoral in next year. Another royal wedding maybe!? Fergie and Andrew back together to keep the union!

I cant vote yes for a few very simple reasons.

I have not been told who will pay my old age pension when it is due ! Can Scotland afford it !

We have not been told for sure if what is left of the UK will allow us to use what will be their currency.

We do not have a definative answer if Scotland will be in or out of NATO !

How much of the UK national debt will we be taking with us !

There are one hundred and one questions that have not been answered but I am still been asked to take a leap of faith into the dark.

I think until the SNP start telling the truth rather than paying people to publish stories about in newspapers I will be in the no camp.

A few little points about "Heralgate":

1/ It was not the SNP who paid for the article, but the Yes Scotland campaign.

2/ The academic has made it clear that he was not paid to support the Yes campaign, but to write an article on his own opinion.

3/ Everyone is ignoring the criminal act of hacking the e-mail account at the Yes campaign. One must ask who would have an interesr in hacking this account, and why. If the culprits are from the obvious answer, then do there actions not make you more suspicious of their actions and motives?

N.B. The payment for the article is not illegal, but is being used a a smokescreen, to detract from the real criminal act.

Finally, the word is INDEPENDENCE. Indepen-dance is a dance and theatre group for the disabled.

The Nats got caught trying to con people into thinking Elliot Bulmer was being honest and truthful when, in fact he's been revealed as the worst sort of cheap hack for hire.

As if that wasn't bad enough, Bill Walker, elected as an SNP MSP, gets himself convicted of 23 counts of assault towards his three former wives.

The current UK government would like to be outside the EU looking in, which would be economically disastrous for the UK, as trade protectionism would cost billions in lost earnings, and millions in lost jobs. I will take the benefits of trade with EU partners over the little legislative control Brussels has.

As for what "Alex Salmond", by which I take it you mean the Yes Scotland campaign, has to say about a possible future for Scotland, it is at least positive. The Better Together campaign has been unrelentingly negative. Now, I don't know about you, but I don't like ANYONE telling me that I am not good enough, yet this campaign tars an entire nation with that brush.

The only other option the Better Together campaign could possibly present is the status quo, and lets just think for a moment how good that is!

Successive governments in Westminster continuing to favour London and the south east, economically, Scotland continuing to live on handouts from the UK Treasury, and effectively getting a lower return for its tax input to the UK Exchequer.

Of course, the No campaign also like to present the "horror" scenario that post independence, the SNP would control Holyrood ad infinitum. Not so. Just like any government at any election, they would face the possibility of rejection by the electorate, an electorate, which, by the way, would be more fairly represented than if they were still part of the UK.

Were the Better Together campaign to be able to present a more positive view, they would certainly be more credible, but they have nothing to offer us except more of the same, more Cameron, more Clegg, more Milliband, and their successors, far removed from the average Scot.

Well Ulciscor, I would have to disagree.

Campaigns for a start... I honestly could not give a toss about the campaigns from either camp; Yes or No. Why? Because I'll highlight one thing, the future of our Country, and its people, should never be left in the hands of those buffoons! We're not the United States. If people truly voted based on the pomp, then we're truly screwed!

I'm not going to tell anyone where to put their vote but I'll will say this;

Our government will have to form new departments which are currently in Whitehall, or perhaps they will be leased - I don't know. Think of Scotland's parliament, spiraling costs - may I add; any project seems to spiral upwards.

Oil, oil, oil :D I really do love this. When the British government decided to get the oil out the North Sea, it cost a huge amount of money (not much in terms of today). In case your reading this, and it hasn't twigged... it was much more than NASA's mission to the moon. Oh, extracting the oil becomes ever more expensive. Besides, it's no longer Scotland's oil. It now belongs to multi-national companies! We could do what Venezuela or Argentina had done, nationalise it. Although, the United States wouldn't be too happy about that as they have a stake in it

Oil, isn't the only thing, I know. There is much more but I'm sorry, as a United Kingdom, we're stronger and far much better off. It's about time people started using their heads when voting, instead of voting the same auld bunch of crooks.

Scotland will survive as a single nation , for example the financial point on it - scotland per head as a nation contributed alot more to "britian" than england , wales and N ireland in the last 5 years and shows we can survive because whatever people who stay in scotland put into the economy should stay in the scottish economy !!! Out of the 100% GDP scotland contributed to the uk , we only got roughly 60-70% of it back from the UK government to help scottish economy ....that is not the way it should be !!!!

You cannot say that Scotland is financially better off as Independent. Why? Its a bit obvious. Is Scotland better off financially as a part of the UK? Yes. You just said it. Now, independently? no one can truly say it will be because no one knows. What your saying is based on foundations going back 300 years, centuries of spilled blood. You cannot use that to say Scotland would be better off.

Wouldnt be surprised unless the courier company had it sorted in Scotland. However, majority of main hubs are in England. Would those companies spend more money to setup in Scotland? Royal Mail is likely going to go private or some of it... what about the rural parts of Scotland (which many forget)... will the costs of p&p double? a lot of unanswered questions.

respecting everyones thoughts but cant see us being better off on our own. The real vote should have been given to the whole nation as it would affect Eng-er-land as well but thankfully they arent getting the vote as they would overwhelmingly vote for us to leave as we are heavily subsidised from Westminster and before anyone gets on their high horse dont go saying the 8%-10% imbalance as that is total fallacy as it doesnt count the cost of police, NHS, Fire Service or forces personnel. Had it not been for the government asking, nay begging, Lloyds group to take over Bank of Scotland we would have been in a bigger mess than even Alex Salmond could create.

"Scotland is like the son in his 40s who still lives at home with his parents..it's about time Scotland grew a pair of Balls and left old mother england and found its own way in the world.

In countries all over the world people fight and die for independence (Including my own country )

Good luck in what you vote for, I just hope you make the right decision as this opportunity might not come along again."

The Republic Of Ireland is like the son who left in his teens spent all his pocket money and had to come back in his 40's for a bailout.

Scotland has balls, and brains.
