Scottish Independence Referendum 19:02 - Jun 28 with 6325 views | unbelievablue | Here's your job: convince me (English, lives in England, no ties to Scotland) that I should care and/or be annoyed about it.* *I say this because, in the social groups of which I am a (integral, obviously) contributing member, there seems to be a fair deal of hand-wringing/anger/annoyance about the whole thing, and I really can't tell why. | |

I actually witnessed someone order a deep fried mars bar in a chippie on Sauchihall Street, just on the city centre side of the M8. Unfortunately he didn't try to eat it in front of us! | | | |

Scottish Independence Referendum on 08:01 - Jun 30 by GlasgowBlue | You could almost be talking about Brexit in your last two sentences. |
Don't think there's any reason to presume that Brexit could/should deliver any benefit in the long-term either. Scottish Independence would have all sorts of ramifications, some positive, some negative, certainly in the short-term, but in the long-term there are lots of examples of successful, prosperous, relatively small countries within the EU - there was never equivalent template for success re Brexit. | | | |

Scottish Independence Referendum on 11:54 - Jun 30 with 219 views | BonneNIL | Wheres my independence vote from Scotland? As an Englishman, I never get asked if I want to be in the Union, ever! We were never asked, it was forced on us by an unelected Monarchy, at least the Scots have had some choice in the matter. We never have. | |

Think of it like being adopted by a stay cat - no choice, costly, but ultimately it's nice to have a pet. | |
