Scottish Referendum

Hello again Blog. I am going to give my thoughts on the Scottish independence Referendum. The vote takes place tomorrow and this will decide whether or not  Scotland leave the UK and become an independent country. Around four million people in Scotland have voted and The vote for yes is seeming very popular. Although, if the Scottish Vote wins as yes a lot of things will change for the Scottish such as their currency, They won't have the NHS, and they will have no support from the UK. Also if by a small chance a war sparks up they  will be on their own unless we once again form an alliance. They believe that they will have more freedom and more rights from being independent and having their own rules.

For British people such as myself the only major change is that our economy will be smaller and certain items from Scotland maybe more expensive such as Whisky and Oil. Also if Scotland do leave, the British flag (The union flag) will change and lose its blue color.

In my opinion i think that the Scottish will vote yes because of their very strong beliefs about changing and becoming free and not British. But i think they will vote no. Britain and Scotland have been in a union together for 305 years so why change now. Scotland will also lose so many benefits and i also think breaking up from each other we ill become a more feeble and easier target if war occurs as we will be parted.

I watched the official Scottish video on voting yes. They use a deep video using contrasting videos and pictures. The Scottish parts of the video are all happy and jolly with colorful images and excitement on the peoples faces. On the other hand when the video was talking about Britain the scenes where put into a gloomy black and white screen and flashbacks of subjects and things that have happened. I think this video is very stereotypical and really dark in a way of it making out Britain are really bad and making out like Britain have destroyed Scotland. This is Clearly not true, yet they continue to slate British ways and people such as David Cameron.
