The Mighty Thor Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 There's some magnificent leaps of logic bouncing about this morning. Austerity on steroids? Have you been in a coma since 2010? Oh and BTW there's another 10 years of it on the way regardless of which Tory party wins. Poverty. I'd suggest those wishing to discuss Poverty do a quick bit of Google-ing to see just how we got where we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His job will be fine so why worry about your own? So probably long after I'm dead seems cool.

The Mighty Thor Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 1 minute ago, BlueRiver said: How is it a bogus argument? People in Scotland can be employed by the public sector primarily serving people in other parts of the UK at sites based in Scotland. There's also potential security concerns that may come in to play depending on what type of sector he works in and working in what would newly be a foreign country. If Scotland were to go independent do you think all of those workers from HMRC or DWP for example will be allowed to continue working at a Scottish site indefinitely serving the public of England, Wales and Northern Ireland? Bearing in mind Scotland wouldn't need as large a civil service to service her own needs? Quite honestly you've debunked nothing and have taken your own personal experience based on the sector you work in and applied it across the board to say there's nowt to worry about. TP mentioned he consults in finance remotely for a London company. The biggest threat to his sector is not the SNP. Scotland would still have a Revenue & Customs function and a 'DWP' function. Those are not currently covered by Scot Gov. I couldn't comment on security concerns and what you'd perceive those to be? Do you genuinely think that on ID+1 everything stops. There's no services, no supermarkets, no trade, no industry? There will still be jobs in Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't but Scotland would need substantially less staff to operate these services than are often employed within the civil service. There would be cuts or at the very least jobs moving out of Scotland as they serve the needs of other constituent UK nations. Depending on your job you may need certain security clearance that would rely on you living in the state you are working for. There will be jobs but not everyone's job's will be secure entirely.

Is that different from today? Jobs are not and generally never have been secure in my 56 years. In terms of security clearance then fair enough but you'll be talking a vanishingly small number of jobs. So could Scotland attract jobs or is that not possible after we leave the UK?
