The key is that Scotland is making *bank* right now by virtue of the fact that Her Majesty's Government does not want them to leave, they're taking in more in government benefits than they're paying out in taxes, and who would want to dodge that? |
Exactly this. The purpose of this forced referendum is to have more devolution. As they wanted there to be 3 options, independence, remaining part of the UK, and far greater powers as part of the UK. Even though this was holding a gun over the rest of the UK.
However, you have to remember, as far as the UK is concerned, the Royal Bank of Scotland and the Bank of Scotland, are the 2 financial institutions which caused our financial crisis.
