The “yes” campaign hoped to win supporters with a utopian vision of an independent Scotland that included European Union and NATO membership; a currency union with England, but no fiscal union; improved public services and social benefits; and lower taxes. In other words, Scotland would have everything it has now, only better, and on its own terms.
“是”阵营希望凭借一个拥有欧盟和北约成员资格的独立的苏格兰、一个和英格兰一起构成的货币而非财政的联盟、改善的公共服务和社会福利以及更低的税收这一乌托邦前景赢得支持者。换句话说，独立后的苏格兰将拥有现在所拥有的一切，只会更好，不会更差。
