I guess you support the SNP then CC?
Cos I don't see any way you're words are not designed to inflame antagonism to the English and drive Scots into the arms of the fascists.
And one other thing, the debate is not about the English, as you seem to think. It's about Scotland playing a full part of the Union. Which is not just the English, but our other partners, the Welsh and Northern Irish.
We're all in it together, and that's the way it should stay.
So, rather than coming across as a petulant, spurned lover, perhaps those articulating your views should remind themselves that England may be the largest partner, but it is still only just that, a partner.
I don't support anything North of the Border - but if I was a Scot I'd want independence, I've stated as much on several posts.
The English, Scots, Welsh and Irish are bound together on our Islands - but they were only bound due to the English.
The unionist arguments in my view appear stupid - they play on peoples fears.
As for the political situation - well, it seems I'm more in tune with Scots politics than yourself - because I can see from here that the Yes campaign has all kinds of normally polar opposites united.......this will end if Scotland votes Yes and then the SNP will have to decide what kind of party its going to be.
Even Gusmac.....a forthright Yes campaigner has said in the past that there may not even be an SNP in an independent Scotland.
If you really want the Union.....you better start thinking of good reasons for it, because playing on peoples fears isn't actually working, people ain't stupid because there's many counties far worse off than Scotland will ever be (even with or without the Union) those are not shackled to a larger State.
Can you explain to me how I'm coming across as petulant and spurned?
