Mixed views on whether Scotland should go it alone

Nothing much changes when you cross the Scottish border. No passport control. No chance of being turned back if your surname doesn’t start with ‘Mc’.

Have your say

so thats a northerners point of view Now do one in Carlisle and see the real result England should be free of scotland and the vote is not up to the scots it should be a vote in England and done now no waiting for the scots because if we wait for them they will take their time and it will be years before we all can be free.

Aye, Delboy, we can set the border from there to the Tyne's mouth. This place doesn't really fit the myths of Englishness, Scottishness, or any other Nation Project mythology. On a practical level though, I'd rather have Scottish laws and compatriots.

hope mr Salmond makes the border between scotland and england south of Carlisle. over Carlisles history the city has been ruled by both Scotland and England. hopefully Mr Salmond make Carlisle a scottish town, im sure we will be better off.under scottish rule.
