^ "This is Cameron's last bag of tricks."Does Cameron having anything to do with RBS
The reason this is coming out is due to the UK treasury leaking any talk of movement from any business's pen address down south of the border - which is simply to keep shareholders from getting scared off due to the negative rap that independence gets south of the border. Cameron has also been shown to pressure the supermarkets into telling them that food cost will rise in an independant scotland before the referendum. All of which is true but isn't a deathly failing of separation, rather just one of the passing features of a newly governed policy of national economics. It would happen regardless of any huge benefits a country would have in leaving another country, which - while jobless and non-life-sequencing in nature - is a currently stable economy.
It doesn't change anything drastic, all it can change is that RBS will put it's tax into england directly, even if it stayed in scotland, it would be paying 81% taxes to south of the border anyway, but not anything in terms of it's actual economic input into Scotland is at jeopardy. It's literally a paper shuffle,and - after the first year of independence, when traction is shown for the country, things like this would normalize.
In short, the UK government seems to be bordering on a legal grey area just to put some last minute scaree into scotland. RBS never wanted this information to be put in public until the vote was cast, and it's also arguable that the tip-off is what's forcing them to make this move in the first place, as RBS's shares were suddenly at stake.
As for halo, I'm a little upset you find it funny that this is happening, i'm beginning to believe that you don't like the scottish population now. :<
