He is not talking about an equal share of the sets of the Bank of England, he is talking about Scotland and the rest of the UK both using Sterling. Rather like Ireland did for 70 years after it got independence for the UK.
This has been covered so many times now.
1. Scotland will not vote for Independence.
2. If it did, the BoE would do a deal to let them use Sterling.
3. It is all scaremongering and counter scaremongering.

They can adopt the pound if they like along the same lines as many TPLSHs use the dollar, that's their choice, but share the pound? Please!

3. It has to scary before it's scaremongering

Gromit, the Irish Free State (and the Irish Republic that followed it) did not use Sterling, but the irish currency was linked to sterling until the ERM (of which Ireland was a member but the UK was not) caused the link to break in 1979.

Mushroom,
Wrong. Ireland's pound was set on parity with Sterling for over half a century. The link was broken in the early 1970s when it all went tits up under Healy and the IMF had to bail us out. When that occurred, Ireland broke parity with Sterling and used the its own currency (not joined to Sterling) until the signed up for the €uro in the 2000 noughties.
