    If the Scots really want independence....

    ... then why not extend the vote to the whole of the UK?

    Independence for Slough! Great idea.

      If the Scots really want independence, they will vote for independence, which should do the trick.

        Because Salmond is all mouth, and knows there is more support for independence south of the border
        Doing the needful since 1827

          The Scottish government can only deal with the referendum in Scotland as that is their area of responsibility under devolution. Only the Westminster government can make the referendum UK wide.

              What a totally ******* dumbass thing to say.

              I think you'll find that Salmond doesn't have the authority to call a referendum in England.

              If the English actually want to separate from Scotland, the solution is simple. Vote in a party that has a referendum of that type on it's manifesto. Simple.

                Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                  You know how your ex wives didn't need your permission for a divorce? It's a bit like that.

                    To be fair intensive carpet bombing of Slough by the entire US B52 fleet would cause at least £76 worth of improvements.
