The Scottish Government has set out its prospectus today on independence, a 670 page book: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotlan...itics-25088251

The date of the referendum is 18 September 2014 so less than 10 months to go and if it goes Yes then Scotland is expected to be an independent country on 24 March 2016.

Personally I hope the vote is Yes, I think that will be the best thing for both England and Scotland but I fully expect it to be a No. I'd be very surprised if its a Yes.
