For England. Not for Ireland, Scotland or Wales. They'll immediately start the process to rejoin the EU. Happy days ahead. You'll always have London, they'll pay the bills for the rest of the country.

Nobody gets into the EU immediately. You’ll have a huge deficit to balance without English funding which will be a political nightmare. It’s going to have to include cuts to social care, healthcare and tuition at the very least.

You’ll have to get around vetos from other countries with separatist movements who don’t want to encourage the behaviour.

You’ll need to prove that you’re a reliable economy without English money keeping things running.

If you actually are accepted into the EU, it will be at the expense of at least one, maybe two generations of Scots living standards.
