Scottish Referendum

To be frank folks, the whole thing stinks.

Alec wants independence but still wants the pound so his economic policy will be dictated by London.

He wants out of the Union but into the EU so all his other policies will be dictated by Brussels.

WTF■■?

.While if Salmand is as passionate about the idea of nationalism as he’d like to think he is then he also wouldn’t be supporting membership of the EU federation.

This ^^ Nor would he want to retain the Queen as head of state.

most Scots want an independant Scotland with winnie Ewing has head of state

Ye can take our lorries but you’ll never take our diesel :slight_smile:

Which,from the unionist point of view,conveniently over looks the fact that the nationalist vote can throw Salmand out after the referendum and then put in a ‘real’ nationalist government that is beholding to no one.IE,from the nationalist point of view,use Salmand as a means to and end then ditch him at the first opportunity.In which case England can’t stop the Scots using the Scottish pound being that there’s no copywrite on the word pound just as was the case before Ireland joined the Euro.Although having said that even in that case Ireland managed to do better when it seceded from the Union with England than the deal it had before the War of Independence while still being a part of the EU.Which is the example which Salmand might be going by.The difference in that case being how bad things were for Ireland and it’s nationalist population under English rule not how good the EU is. :bulb:

Who told you that■■? Also, if most Scots wanted an independant Scotland then the vote next month would be a foregone conclusion.

Remaining in a common currency with England makes no sense.But the idea of a Scottish pound, which is already there in name,would be no different to the idea of the Irish currency before joining the Euro.

The polls are still showing a 10 point lead for the no vote so claims that ‘most Scots want an independent Scotland’ do not hold up.

The Leatherhead’s assertion that Scotland can ‘keep the pound since there’s no copywrite’ is risible. No one will lend Them money at anything like an economic rate unless they have massive fiscal backing. If they renege on their national debt not even that will be forthcoming.

I got a plan carryfest Bring a lorry and a fridge trailer over here I will get the poitin go to Scotland the night before the vote go to every rangers bar and give out free poitin :laughing: :laughing:

The fact is Scotland won’t be able to borrow it’s way to success.It will have to sink or swim by re building it’s manufacturing and mining industries again even better than before and then using protectionist policies to allow them to grow and survive.It’s no surprise that the English government have destroyed that industrial base as a form of sabotage to keep the place dependent on England just to keep the idea of Unionism staggering on.Ironically as an Englishman with nationalist sympathies I reckon that I could do a better job of turning Scotland into a proud independent nation again than Salmand.

I hope that the Scottish people are allowed to determine their own future with any interference by the Unionists.

Really? You’re making some sweeping statements about what the Scots do and don’t want, I’ll ask again, where is this info coming from?

El Griffo:
The only way there will ever be a YES vote is if the English are allowed to vote as well.

As i said earlier, a few celtic fans aren’t indicative of an entire nation but I accept you reasoning as you clearly have greater insider knowledge than i do
