BBC section on Scotland's future
A couple of touch points so far (from an outsiders point of view) have been on what currency an independent Scotland would use:
Scottish independence: Currency union too risky
Scottish independence: Barroso says joining EU would be 'difficult'
So what say you CFC-OT?
If the Scots vote to leave the UK I would support them. A currency can be created if needed. Membership of the EU would come eventually.

A couple of touch points so far (from an outsiders point of view) have been on what currency an independent Scotland would use:
Scottish independence: Currency union too risky
And Scotland's position in the EU:A TREASURY analysis paper published yesterday concluded there is no evidence a currency union between the rest of the UK and Scotland post-independence could work.
The report concludes that the rest of the UK would be exposed to greater financial risk if it shared a sterling zone with an independent Scotland.
Scottish independence: Barroso says joining EU would be 'difficult'
European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso has said it would be "extremely difficult, if not impossible" for an independent Scotland to join the European Union.
Speaking to the BBC's Andrew Marr he said an independent Scotland would have to apply for membership and get the approval of all current member states.
So what say you CFC-OT?
If the Scots vote to leave the UK I would support them. A currency can be created if needed. Membership of the EU would come eventually.
