If we go ahead with Scottish Independence the consequences for us are going to be enormously disruptive. Every aspect of our relationship with Britain will have to be renegotiated. For example the whole benefits system will change. Anyone on benefits will no longer get them from DWP, as that is a UK Department. The whole renegotiation will take years, probably decades. During that time the interuption to government will be huge. Anyone looking to get anything done for them will find that civil servants will be tied up in negotiations.Everything from our TV licence to our driving licence will change because they are organised by British Departments. We will have to get a new passport, the list is endless. I know how frustrating it can be to get a passport. Can you imagine the chaos that is going to follow independence.
