Hopefully for some maybe Wales and Scotland will go independant thus giving a possible safe haven for some of us. But for most of us I fear for our survival purely cos of the cost of living.
Interesting about Scotland going it alone... IMHO, the British establishment will never allow it. Have you seen the amount of strategic military facilities in Scotland? The nuclear submarine base and support bases, the arsenals (including one south of Greenock where all our Tomahawk cruise missiles are stashed), the secret SAS base near Loch Lomond, the marines base near Arbroath? I'm working on a 2012 UK map of strategic nuclear targets and Scotland is just bristling with them, especially the greater Glasgow area.
