well i was just wondering if you have heard about this vote in Scotland that they might be independent so what would you vote if it was you?

would you like Scotland to become an independent country or stay part of Great Britain?

  • stay in Britain
  • become an independent country
  • don’t care

i am asking bc it is very big news in the UK just now and i think maybe around the world as well, we get to vote this thursday and then things could either get very bad or very good and i am hoping for the latter. if things do go down hill i am just hoping my mood doesn’t go down with it lol

I don’t know anything about it - I’ve just heard the vote is coming up. What would you vote and why?

We regularly have similar debates about the role of Quebec in Canada. They want to be an independent country, yet they can’t afford to pay their own way as part of Canada, never mind function independently. Most Western Canadians would vote for Quebec separation as it would be wonderful to see them running full force into reality the day after they separate.

its a hard decision and it is driving a lot of people nuts and has made me lose sleep on a few occasions as well, it is so hard to trust any of the politicians anymore but what my country propose for its own people seems to make more sense with things like the bedroom tax getting scrapped which could help me get a proper house sooner and the welfare situation which could save me a lot of money its sounds like a good prospect, these politicians are all as bad as each other but i am voting for independence.

i hope we don’t fall flat on our faces, there has been predictions done but it all hinges on a currency union which the English don’t want (pretty funny as we invented banks and paper money) the Scottish people i mean.

Banks were invented by the Italians and paper money by the Chinese.

If I were Scottish I’d vote for independence. The sun is setting on the British Empire.

I’ve been following this out of interest… I can see that Scotland should have credit for the resources it puts into the pot. It also wants more control over it’s oil, and textiles…

One guy on the international news in Scotland was saying that Scotland puts in a huge amount of raw ingredients into the national pie… and then when the pie is finished… they only get a sliver back. I realize all news is biased… but if that is even close to the case… Scotland should get credit for it’s input and labor.

I don’t know if the vote will actually go through and have Scotland separate from the U.K. But it might be close enough that england might have to treat Scotland with a little more respect. Because if the vote is too close… Scotland can say… “See? If we do this again… it will pass.”
