Yeah, oil is a BIG factor. The elephant in the room is not the north sea though which everyone goes on about, but the shelf west of Shetland Cameron visited on the qt recently. My friend was recently sent home on full pay from Claire field until the referendum is over. It's enormous. It's unreported.


You certainly post some hysterical s**t but this is a belter, been debunked umpteen times yet the Nats still rattle on about it!!

It now appears that the majority are the Yes voters, why has this come about, a few months ago I was not within the Yes movement and now I am( I genuinely never saw that one coming). There is a lot of misunderstanding out there why the Yes movement has grown in to the biggest movement for change Scotland has ever seen. In my opinion the core issue is shared with the majority throughout all the Nations, that is Westminster along with the City of London is corrupt. Look at the latest news from there, a 9% pay rise proposed for the MPS. The political Westminster elite are not fit to rule anyone, we are choosing the only option, that’s a Yes vote. No more Nuclear Weapons, no more illegal wars, no more rule from Westminster, a fairer and more equal society. Who would not vote for that.

So how will you feel if salmond agrees to keep the Nuclear weapons in the unlikely event of a currency union.



What ILLEGAL wars would that be then?


Fairer society, go on then, how does that come about, lowering Corporation tax, Council tax freezes and free prescriptions, how do these policies spread the wealth?

As for that poll, any idea how polling works?


That same poll showing a Yes lead could be used to give a 57-43 NO lead using a different weighting method, I'm sure you know that though?

simply_the_best, change is happening, all the Nations want it. The ruling power based in Westminster and the City of London is corrupt and past its use by date. The option on the table to make that change is with a Yes vote for Scotland. That in its self will drive through change for the greater good for the other Nations. In my opinion the majority in all the Nations understand that and we all want to do what is right. A currency union is the best option for all the Nations. In the early hours on the 19th September, Scotland will still be on the same land mass shared with the other Nations, the only thing is changing will be we are governing our selves and not being ruled by the political elite from Westminster.

The English press and politicos still trying to scare the undecided from voting "yes". It's all made out to be a very negative seperation.
In the absence of famous Scots calling upon their countrymen to march for togetherness, it'll be left to the noes on facebook, twitter, instagram, etc. to organise the Unity Rally :cuppa

It could turn out to be expensive, we'd have to rebuild Hadrian's Wall potentially and have border controls because they wouldn't be part of the free moving EU :shock:

Just more warbling pish from an unnamed source, don't be to disappointed on the 19th.



I can assure you that Salmond claiming a currency union is in the best interests of the rUK is not his gift to give, the Government that would be left will be deciding what's best for the remaining 55 miliion people, and they have ruled out a currency union.


Nat - response, it's Scaremongering, frightnening stuff :sad:



Still I'll still go with 60 - 40 for NO, 2 NO postal votes from my house sent in.

Hadrian's Wall is too far south of the border but could still be utilised for the DMZ :shhhhh

A point in history, if you want to go back and rebuild Hadrians Wall, which nation ruled the land south of it when it was originally constructed. Are you implying deep down you want to go back to those days of being ruled by a foreign power.

Well by and large we are! Brussels more or less calls the tune and its Westminster who carries out its diktat, the Southerners are ruling the country as suits them and Europe so in effect it is a foreign power.

I like it. There'll be no slingshots, bows and arrows and spears keeping them out this time, oh no it'll be the full monty taking a leaf out of Mel Gibsons movie - I mean some people actually thought it was true but there you are small minds are easily swayed by the ridiculous.
