Just wanted to repost a comment from someone who posted on one of my comments today,for all the YES believers and doers,see below I moved to Ireland 11 years ago because there were hardly any employers in Scotland in my line of work (pharmaceuticals manufacturing, in fact only one at the time that I was aware of - GSK, and I dont think thats changed much). I am fiercely patriotic and would bite your hand off to have a vote. I hope with all my heart that YES wins and that with time post independence, manufacturing/industrial employers will invest (and RE-invest) in Scotland to create jobs opportunities for skilled workers both living now in Scotland and also for people like myself who felt there was no choice but to find work elsewhere, many much further away from Scotlands shores than Ireland, and who would like nothing better than the chance to return home. The opportunities post-independence are almost mouthwatering and it vexes me no end as to why anyone living in Scotland would not want Scotlands government to do just that - govern, with all the powers that entails. For all the people out there canvassing for YES, I applaud you, and feel confident that the hard work and hard hours you are putting in will be rewarded. Thank you from a grateful exile.
