The debt is the UKs. They have taken responsibility for it. If we aren't part of the UK, unless we agree to take on our share, the whole debt will remain as a UK debt.

That's a fact

Just noticed this comment....

Could we break up into England, Northern Ireland and Wales as well and all refuse to pay the debt as it is the UK's?

Theoretically Yes.

If NI and Wales declared independence and the rest of the UK (England) refuse them a currency union then they are kicked out of the UK's bank and as such have no liability to that banks debt.

However Wales is not technically a country so not sure on their ability to declare independence.

So it's only the refusal of a currency union that allows Scotland to walk away without debt?

I got to be honest it comes across as "let us use the pound otherwise we refuse to pay!"
