Uh, pretty sure England, Wales, and Northern Ireland would have an issue with the idea that this is the end of the UK...

Well according to this article http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2759069/This-absolute-madness-Scottish-pubs-granted-special-licenses-serve-alcohol-referendum-night-despite-threat-violence-breaking-out.html many pubs will be specially open all night. Either way the vote goes, it should be interesting to say the least.

I'm hoping that they do but I'm thinking that while it will be close that sanity will win out over nationalism and the braveheart "FREEDOM!!!" crowd.

Despite my ancestral home being full of a bunch of FSA assholes, I hope they do vote for independence.
On the whole, the world is better off with many smaller, decentralized nations rather than trending toward a one world government. |

Part of me is hoping they do, so the morans will see the reality of the numbskulls pursuing this, NATO can tell them to fuck off, and they can become a backwards third world shithole they have always dreamed of becoming. I'd feel sorry for those members of Scottish society who actually contribute, as they are overwhelmingly against this nonsense.

I'm inclined to think they'll vote to stay in the UK, but I'm prepared to be pleasantly surprised. A Scottish vote for independence would be a vote to "stick it to the Man." I'm all for "sticking it to the Man."

Same here, but then I also don't want to see what's left of the UK start to break up. While London is saying that the secession would be permanent, I wonder if that's how things would actually play out of independence didn't work out so well for Scotland (which is what will be the case). |

I had an interesting discussion about this today. The separation of Scotland from the UK isn't necessarily bad simply by itself, but the precedent that it will set could have far reaching consequences for the current interstate system.

I'll bet my paycheck Britain is, at least in secret, praying that these welfare queens up and fucking leave. I bet they even hold the door so as not to get ass prints on it when they are on their way out. Scottish independence is the best thing that could happen to Britain, if they actually stood to lose something from the Scots leaving they never would have allowed it to come to a vote in the first place. |

There is more to national interests than purely economic considerations, especially more than just those relating to the Provider State. In some ways the rest of the UK will benefit. In others not so much. |

IMO it was stupid for London to accede to a binding referendum. |

England shares a common history with Scotland, just look at the industrial revolution as a uniting period in their history. Scotland can complain all they want about ancient history, but the UK is a powerful state and belonging to that identity is not a bad thing in 2014.

It is time for the British to end the occupation of Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland has voted overwhelmingly to stay within the UK. Granted, the vote was in 1973, but it was over 98% pro union. There is little want in N.I. to leave the union right now. To call it an occupation is inaccurate. |
