Scots 'better off in UK' - Cameron Britain's victories in war, success at the 2012 Olympics and the founding of the NHS are all part of David Cameron's rallying call for unity in an effort to stop Scotland voting for independence in autumn 2014. Scotland is "stronger, safer, richer and fairer" as part of Britain, he is expected to claim today. Speaking ahead of a government paper tomorrow that will present "hard facts" about Scottish independence, the Prime Minister will insist: "We're all better off together and poorer apart." Urging Scottish voters not to "take a leap in the dark," he will describe how Britain established "world-renowned" institutions such as the NHS and BBC, and "fought for freedom" in two world wars, leaving "unbreakable bonds." A vote for independence would damage the entire United Kingdom, he will warn.
