Scottish independence- where do you stand?

After going through a few of the independence threads and reading such a broad range of opinions I was wondering about where all the folk stating their opinions are from and where they live now..
So, I’ll go first.
I’m Scottish, still live in Scotland and I’m planning on voting yes..
On you go then..

I’m voting Yes and so is my wife 🙂

I’m English British 8) , live in Scotland & voting no.

EDIT

wife is Scottish & voting no

Scottish and resident. undecided. probably.
My wife – English, and Scottish resident. Undecided/Don’t know as well

Scottish and live in Scotland. Currently undecided/voting no.

scottish, live in edinburgh. Voting no.

Me – Dual Nationality – Indian and British, living in Scotland, likely no, but could be persuaded.
Wife – British (although being from Yorkshire, could be described as dual nationality as well) – definite no.

I’m a Kiwi, lived in Scotland 18 years (my dad was Orcadian).

I plan to draw a big willie on my voting paper, I think both sides are awful.

I vote Yes.

Freedddoommm from bbbbuuurrreaucrats the disease … prefer to choose own destiny …

I live in GeordieLand (alien maggot by origin) but wouldn’t mind joining the northern troops to sack southern cities.

I want to put them male folks to hard labour and enjoy with their women good time …

😆

English, living in Wales, errr…

I’ll get me coat.

It’s a no from me.

I’m from the wrong side of the boarder & I have no problems either way, but if they want to be independent then surely they cant just cherry pick all of the best bits from a list of whats good & bad for Scotland & get away with it, can they?

enjoy with their women good time …

….the lucky bastards……

Born in Scotland, live in Scotland, voting no.
Wife born in England, live in Scotland, voting no.

English, living in England.

I just don’t see how the sums add up. Plus, the costs of implementing such a change would be truly epic. It would keep me in a job for many years, but find myself wondering why nobody has even sighted the costs of transition.

Scottish (not British), resident and will vote yes. The same goes for my wife.

English born and dwelling so no vote, but should i have the option i would vote YES.

Born in England, resident in Scotland for 20yrs. I’ll be voting yes.

No from me (so far, I could still be convinced otherwise).

Scottish, but currently living in NE Englandshire.

Born in Wales so welsh, now living in england,so cant vote no.

but surely it should be a national uk vote not a small minority who seem to be brainwashed into thinking it will be good just for them.

I was about to suggest you edit that graham, but noticed you have.

English, living in England.

I’d vote yes if the option was available. Time for change. I’d also support Wales and NI doing their own thing too.

Double negative so count as yes. 😈

Um, I think you can only vote if you live in Scotland ? It will be taken from electoral register with all the kiddies added.

Seems fair to me.

Scottish and voting no

Englandish, live in England, I’d be a yes.

Voting yes.

I am Scottish,live in Scotland,will vote yes

Irish, living in England. Ireland should never have been part of the union in the first place and I’m glad some of my ancestors fought and for freedom from an oppressive, at crucial times uncaring, at all times unwelcome occupier; tens of thousands giving their lives in the process. I have always been and always will be a nationalist. So while I have no vote, nor would I want one and my gut feeling is that this would not be a good thing for Scotland, the groundswell of opinion is now too strong for there not to be a referendum. I hope it’s a no vote but if it’s a yes, then I would wish them well in their endeavour to work as an independent nation and support them in their decision.

Can I be allowed to piss myself laughing when in 20 years the Scots end up with the same shit as always but with different hated politicians in charge?

Scottish, live in NZ but likely will be back in Scotland by then. Voting No assuming i can vote.

Great in principle, bad idea in practice economically, politically and socially. ‘A change’ is not the basis of a sound reason to undo the union.

I’m English/British, and very bored with the whole thing. As I don’t have a vote I wonder why it’s even on the news down here.

I say go for it, you already hate us so you may as well hate us across a proper border!

Irish, English.

A politician is a politician means no change, empty promises which in turn evolve to broken promises.

You may laugh but at least that is their shit and not being shite upon by someone else.

I think by then Salmon will evolve into a Cane Toad. No?

It seems the Spanish PM has stated that Scotlands entry into the EU is by no means certain as Scotland will require all 28 member states agreement. However Salmond suggests this is “inconceivable”

Sturgeon has stated that Scotland is an”integral” part of the EU. It seems she is using words without a comprehension of meaning.

The devil/bureaucrats in the details must not succeed.

What are they going to do? Put the people to hard labour and enjoy their women?

Spanish PM … ya right … they just want more handouts/feedings.

English, living in Spain – and against. I think it’s a huge risk for Scotland, and will diminish both parties.

It does potentially affect me, rUK could lurch to the right and leave the EU, at which point I’d almost certainly end up taking Spanish nationality.

On the one hand, a nationalist Spanish PM with a veto fearful of encouraging catalan independence, and on the other hand the aspiring candidate for a small country on the northern edge of Europe…

Scottish, live in Scotland, probably voting yes.

(‘We’ don’t hate ‘you’ at all. I don’t think ‘we’ even think of ‘you’ as a single homogeneous body. Far too simplistic. I’d just like a chance to shape our political landscape and – hopefully – our society to reflect a bit more accurately how most of the people who live in Scotland appear to feel about lots of important things. This gives us an opportunity to try.)

English living in England. If it’s being done for the right reasons then go for it. If it’s just a case of hating the English and wanting away from Westminster then tread carefully. Scotland want’s self determination but can the country stand purely on it’s own or will it just throw itself at the mercy of Brussels? If so how will it be better off?

Personally I’d rather they didn’t. I like being British. I think that we are a good mix together. However if Scotland wants to go alone, then good luck, just don’t let the door slam your arse on the way out. 😉

Sorry for my earlier post! Wrong thread…

No vote from me. The inherent problems in Scotland won’t be solved by independence and I believe that we’re stronger as part of the united kingdom. I have never felt belittled or forgotten about by Westminster.
