I thought that when the 3 Stooges went to Scotland this week that would be enough to swing the vote to a YES. Maybe that was their intention?

Unbelievable the shite, or ignorance, some of the SNP spout on TV. On RBS relocating to England some idiot stated that it was nothing more than moving a brass name plate to another location. Scottish jobs would not be affected.

Except that RBS would be governed by the Bank of England not by whatever Scotland comes up with as a Central Bank which is unlikely to be of any significance.

Scottish pound devalued by 75%? Or could Scotland join the Euro? Why? Germany already has enough fledgling (basket) case economies to support.

Oil/Gas? As far as I am aware there are no natural oil/gas resources on mainland Scotland. Offshore on UK territorial waters there is. But Scotland could leave the UK therefore the rights to the oil/gas resources will be open to legal interpretation. Should take around 20 years of High Court cases, billions in legal fees. In the meanwhile BP ramp production and eventually its decided that the oil/gas fields are in Scotlands territorial waters. Except theres fuck all left.

Its plainly nationalistic Micro Economics flag waving bullshit versus Macro Economics where there is no sustainable economy or banking system.
