Rifkind is saying we'd be more vulnerable to terrorism if we vote YES - wrong again sir, SNP plan to spend MORE not less on Scottish defence

With defence spending  increased - the SNP state Scotland have its own defence forces and would inherit and maintain our military bases and regiments.  We would continue to work in partnership with other nations. <snip>  Our defence profile [] be similar to neighbouring nations such as Denmark, Sweden, Finland or Norway.  Scotland’s contribution to UK defence spending is around £3.3billion. Experts from the Royal United Services Institute have confirmed that this would be more than enough to support a defence force that could be “extraordinarily good” by 2030. The UK Government only spend around £2 billion of the defence budget in Scotland. The SNP advocate a defence budget of £2.5 billion – less than we currently contribute, and more than is currently spent. We would get rid of Trident nuclear weapons from Scotland, saving money that could be better spent elsewhere.  *if you think we'll back down or lose, ever, no matter what, you have another think coming
