To be clear, what is the question -- is it "Do you want independence", or is it "Do you want unity"?

This is a good point but interestingly within Scotland (i.e. the target audience) the question doesn't need to be explicitly stated. People will have "Yes" (or "Aye") or "No" badges on their facebook profiles without any context.

It's probably good that they added the question in though as I'm fascinated by the responses outside Scotland!

It seems like on the ground in Scotland, the sides are just "YES" and "NO" at this point.

Should Scotland be an independent country?
