Not sure we will need one.It looks like the SNP will do the impossible twice - that is hold a majority in a coalition parliament - come 2016. You have to understand that the Scottish parliament was designed by the English so that the SNP could never hold a majority and that there could never ever be a referendum on Scottish Independence. But it looks like not only will the SNP do the impossible twice but they will in all probability increase their majority. Though of course 10 months is a very long time in politics. But if the SNP do perform as currently expected, and with 56 SNP seats out of 59 in the English parliament, well I would argue that come the summer of 2016 we won't need a referendum. It's a simple mater of declaring Scotland Independent. The SNP would have the mandate to do so. Just a thought.

OK, I'm not politically minded and haven't been following the great debate.But, as I live in England, how does it effect me if Scotland leaves?Should I give a monkeys either way?
In the referendum, most voters didn't want an independent Scotland.
Before the last election, if I remember correctly, a new referendum wasn't in their manifesto.
Yet some people think that 56 SNP seats now means most people want an independent Scotland. It doesn't.
the useless 56, all sittin on their fat arses doin nothing but moaning, but claiming max expenses and drawing a salary that would choke a horse--Foc them all.
