I just wish we had the opportunity to vote for our own future as well. I want all Scots to know that most of us in England support an independent Scotland.

I agree that (ironically) Independence stands a better chance under the tories - the prospect of getting rid of 40 labour seats for the cost of 1 tory seat being quite attractive. However, whether you put the Scottish referendum before or after the next general election, the actual decision will be made in Westminster and it will be after. So we don't need to hold off. Better to get on so the issue is live next time the UK goes to the polls. 2. I don't think anything will kill us, but I think it's critical that the SNP don't become an obstacle to their own success by having to play the existing limited system. "Running" Scotland whith the whole Unionist system against you in both Scotland and England and through a UK general election is going to be a bumpy ride. All the best, McGellie. 1.

We are much more likely to get a negotiation with Cameron as PM than Brown or Miliband for that matter. It's time to keep the heid. We've waited 300 years to kill the Union, another 3 won't kill us.

I suspect that Salmond thinks that the UK General election will defeat Labour in which case Scots may not wish to risk another 18 years of Tory rule and will then vote for independence. I hope he is getting it right-but it is certainly not a foolish approach. If he is First Minister he will have much more credibility than he does now.
