How much is Cameron willing to go to frustrate the vote? He can threaten to veto Scotland's entry into the EU and UN and ask the nitty-gritty details of independence. Also, what will happen to Northern Ireland, given that most Protestants there are connected to Scotland? Then will the remaining England and Wales be viewed as a successor of the UKGBNI, similar to the Russian Federation being viewed as the successor to the USSR, or will it be a totally new entity? Many countries will demand that the rump England and Wales be stripped of its status at the UN Security Council. And that's before thousands of bilateral agreements get negotiated.
To a layman it seems like a very British Yugoslavia.
