This will be the day that people from Scotland as young as 16 will given a slip saying" do you want Scots to be independent". They have been given a chance to decide the future of their own country. All over news from the social network site to radio people have be saying how they feel about the up coming events. The English and Scots have been ask what will happen after all this happen and will it all go to plane
The things they are wondering- how this will effect our country ?
Will there be war in the future?
Will other places start doing the same thing?
Can they continue on their own?
If it don't work will they try to go back to the way they were?
I think that they have wanted this for a long time now and it was bound to happen. The Scot all ways have been a proud people who try to stand on their own but can they? It seems the older people want to to either stand by them selves or want to stay the way it is. Which i cant hold it against them, with so many thing that could wrong why try. The younger one want to to say yes to the vote because they think they can do it them self . Not just that but looking how bad it is how much worse could we do it.Look at it now i don't care if they do become their own country or not. What i think is that if they can live on their own fair enough . But if they can't then they have gone through all this just for the sake of it all . But i think they are doing this right now because England right now need some help and a new leader. I know right now is that if they get the yes just maybe they can finally be no more bad blood between us anymore.
The Scottish have made two videos for todayone for yes http://www.yesscotland.net/
one for no
The video for yes is more complaining then any other video . The video shows a girl from birth to her adulthood years to come and what she want it to be like. she make it as a happy time if it a yes, by showing happy,bright and unforgettable moment. Then show what happen if you don't through her eyes. By showing a little girl scared at seeing a grey, dark and unhappy place. It makes you want to say yes just so the girl is happy. However being English i find they pick at everything wrong with systems that could be applied to anyone.
The no video is boring and information heavy compared to the other video. It makes me wanna go to sleep. I find that the target audience is for older or people who need fact to decide on what they want. They do this by get a girl to example why it is a good reason to stay the way we are. It ask rhetorical questions to make the point of why should we do it if we might fall ? . Better yet are we so bad off than we are now?. To soften the blow of the amount of information and make it more interesting they made it in to more a cartoon than real life. I think that this could have done better if they had better music. They could have also shortened it to make it so that people don't feel like it is going on for ever.
