Chloe Dupuy: British pound falls over Scotland independence referendum fears


The British pound has fallen to a 10-month low from Scotland companies after a potentials surge for
independence. Many fear that the United Kingdom economic stability will fall. At 3 P.M, the Pound will drop to .99 cents down. Many believe that The United Kingdom will fall apart because of Scotland wanting independence. Right now 51% vote for yes and 49% vote no for Independence. We will see in 10 days if Scotland gains their independence.

I think if Scotland gains their independence, the United Kingdom might fall apart. Both for Political and economic reasons too. The question is : Can both survive without each other? Will both of them fight each other? Hopefully, Scotland's independence don't cause conflict with its neighbor, The United Kingdom.

  1. I agree, and hope that the UK and Scotland don't end up fighting over Scotland's independence. Even if the UK's economy might suffer, Scotland deserves the right to freedom.

  2. This sounds like a really delicate situation, I mean the poll for independence is a 2% difference! On one hand you've got the possibility of an independent country having more control over social policies, but on the other there's a chance of a damaging effect on Scotland and its sudden independence. Hope these issues work themselves out.
