The three main parties have basically promised devo-max due to the polls, and they will have to keep this promise because of the obvious strength of feeling about the current arrangement north of the border. Britain is on its way to becoming a federal union, not just with Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland but also with the English Regions. Scotland can either join this and be proud of itself for once again being the driving force behind a British achievement for the benefit of the whole of the UK, or it can go ahead by crossing that line and putting itself outside of Britain forever, and simply have to live with the consequences of decisions made in London without their input that will govern Scotland’s monetary, trade and immigration policies. I would advise that you seriously consider what you really want for Scotland. Self-Governance with a seat at the table of power, or faux-independence under the domination of your leviathan neighbour that no longer has to consider the effects of its policies on the Scottish electorate.
