      As IT contractors we are well positioned to understand how much of a complex proposition this is.

      Complexity is not a real reason for not doing something, but it should be fully understood before taking the leap. This is the type of thing that can lead to war or years of legal wrangling

              Lets get his right, it's not the Scots who are asking for the vote on the anniversary of Bannockburn but Alex Salmond.
              And according to opinion poles the majority of Scots and non Scottish residents living there they would vote to stay in the union.
              Any one who is a registered voter in Scotland and living there will have the right to vote on independence, so you could be English and living there as a registered voter and be able to cast your vote.

                So does it mean a temporary real estate boom will happen in Scotland?

                Scooterscot will be pleased - he'll be voting remotely from his comfortable Dubai prison for a bounced cheque.

                  Anyway, according to the figures, even after North Sea Oil, Scots are subsidised to the tune of £2000K a year per head, apparently because of their health profile. I suppose the free education doesn't even touch the sides.
                  Good riddance I say, keep the oil, remove the South East subsidy and join the Euro, Scots. You know you want to

                    That's only £2 mln, less than a quid per Scottish person without counting shaunbhoy.

                      Arithmetic never was a strong point with sas. He can't count any higher than that without taking his socks and shoes off.
