Both!

Even when I lived in Leicestershire I felt disconnected from a Westminster government, and that was only 100 miles north.

And the Yes campaigners have quoted these reasons many, many times.

But my personal belief is that independence is not the answer, but more local powers of government (not just in Scotland)is a better solution. Small countries are economically fragile (look at Iceland and Ireland, who used to be the examples that yes campaigners used as models to aspire to).

I believe we are better together BUT that the Westmisnter government needs serious reform
