David Cameron will resign if he loses Scotland. A Prime Minister who allows the break-up of the United Kingdom cannot suffer such a statement of no confidence and continue in office.That much is understood in Downing Street, where a gnawing doubt about the referendum gets worse by the day. The vote takes place in five months this Friday. Angst rather than panic describes the feeling apparent among those involved – but is it just a momentary loss of nerve, or a dawning realisation that something is seriously wrong? Thats according to Benedict Brogan, a senior writer for Tory paper the Daily Telegraph, and who quotes unnamed sources from within Downing Street itself. I wouldnt celebrate though if I were you...The Tories would pick Theresa May or George Osborne, and would then win the subsequent election without Scottish seats.
