    Lightbulb Scotland independence vote - what do you think the result will be?

    So today on September the 18th the scottish people will vote yes or no to independence from England.

    http://www.bbc.com/news/events/scotland-decides
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottis...ferendum,_2014


    What do you think the result will be? I have to admit that when I first heard about the voting coming up I couldn't help myself but to think about the old move Braveheart, since for me, perhaps because I am a foreigner, when I think about "England vs Scottland" it's just one of the things that comes to mind.

     


    Since I am not from Great Britain I havn't really been following the latest events over the years in this matter. To be honest - I was a bit surprised when I heard about the upcoming voting, I didn't belive that the dissatisfaction was so big that they had to vote about it. So, what do you think the results will be? Do you think that Scottland will become its own country or do you think that people will vote no to keep it as it is? And if Scottland will vote yes - do you think other countries in similar situations, like Catalan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalan_independence will follow?

    I think it's interesting! I will for one defentely follow the news tomorrow! Will you?

    Kind of weird to see something like this in 2014 to be honest, Lol.

    Yeah I know! I didn't expect that either! I was pretty sure that when I would wake up today that we would have a new country in Europe but the Scottish people didn't seem to like that idea that much... I guess perhaps worrying about the economy could be a part of the no-votes?

    I figured it wouldn't ended in a no, seeming that all the big hoopla that came out about the repercussions of Scotland breaking from the UK. But I was seriously hoping they would've voted yes. Just too see all of that come true. //4

    Still almost half of the voters voted yes, that's quite a lot.

    Yes, but the majority ruled. Though there was enough turn out for the proponents of independence that those in power should take a hint.




    Now please explain this ^ since google translate didn't helped me.
    Essentially as it drew closer to the vote, those that wanted Scotland to remain a part of the UK pointed out the effects that Scotland being independent would have on both the UK's economy, and the global economy. Thus to persuade those to vote no.
