Now I've said this before but I'll put it in big letters so you can see it this time.

If we vote to stay in the union, it will be the fault of the Scots and nobody else

That clear enough for you?


Now that aside, you are the deluded one if you think Westminster isn't trying it's damnest to influence the vote. It is in their interests that we vote no, and I don't blame them for trying. If the boot were on the other foot, we'd be doing the same.
It is us, the people of Scotland, who will decide. If we don't have the balls to reclaim our country, if we buy into all this were too poor, too wee too stupid bullshit, it will be our own fault.

Gusmac, it’s not anyone’s fault and nor is anyone to blame, some people, probably the majority in Scotland, simply don’t want independence.
You seem to believe the English to be our enemies and the British government to be beyond our scope of influence, when deciding our destiny. It is simply not the case. There is no gun being held, to our heads to make us vote the way they want. The fact is the sheeple get the government of their choosing.
The real enemy likes within, and that’s exactly why nothing will really change with independence, because sheeple are there to be sheared.

Enjoy :lol:

Surely it matters if the guy leading us into independence was bought out of his pledge to nationalise the buses, by ehh a bus operator

How can we listen to and believe anything he says about how scotland would be when independent, this is suppose to be the start of a new open political era and we are getting led into by a man who took a £500 000 bung to change his policy

Ever since i was a wee boy i was pro independence not because i had any great knowledge of politics, but because i was scotish, im guessing this is the reason most of the average joes favour independence. Sadly salmond and his cronies have put me of the idea simply because you cant get a straight answer from any of them.

If one person's alleged corruption puts you off an ideal, then it wasn't very sincerely held. I left the SNP 20 years ago because of some of the people in it. It didn't stop me from being pro independence. Independence is far more than any man or political party. You don't change a sincerely held belief just because you don't trust someone. If that were the case, there is no shortage of corrupt and immoral people on both sides of the debate.

Sunset, your full of shit.
Go climb back under your unionist rock, and come back out when you've got a positive case for the union.
Smears, personal attacks and bullshit are a very poor substitute.

Like I said, that's a pretty pish-poor reason. :---) I don't think you'd vote independence under any circumstances. :shock:

Whatever. Now how about that positive case for the union? Oh well, another two years for you to think of something.

Well if it's a smear, which I believe it is not, it was reproduced from an article elsewhere. The link is there.
A bit like your current go at Macaskill. You could have posted both on the same thread BTW.

Still nothing positive? No debate of the issues, Sunset?

Thought not.

Sunset you are for turning im sure, you cant use the Alex Salmond put me off when voting on the most important vote of your lifetime, the next biggest vote will be that in 2016 when yes we can all boot Alex Salmond out, thats if his party doesn't do it first.

Politics will evolve post independence, all serving westminster SNP MPs will be back up the road as will the other Scottish MPs by 2016, this is where you will see true colours, the SNP MPs will be happy to come back the others will crawl back and then some will have the bare ass cheek to seek election within an independent Scotland, these are the ones who scare me, these are the ones we will ask how much of a pro unionist where you really, these are the ones who would sell their grannies to gain election to an independent Scottish parliament.

The debate is not a personality contest, Its not about who you like and or dislike,the vote is not about 1 political party, the vote is about starting afresh as an independent country, where trust me people power will make politicians more accountable, it happens now, example being Ian Gray, Jenny Dawe and many others who have lost their seat as a result of backing bad policy, we cant make a difference as part of the UK but we certainly can as an independent Scotland.

Sunset i know Skull will vote YES he has to,to stay true to his beliefs, don't make the same mistake, but its YOUR vote YES your VOTE :wink:


VOTE YES :D :D :D

btw im on the right, its the right side to be on :wink:

Your on the right side that will be why you support snp, the snp have always been scottish torys just in a tartan disguise.

You make look at the council tax freeze ( this actually damaging public services)

Free prescriptions ( again this is damaging the NHS)

Tuition fees (again no need to let the super rich off here but again he did)

super rich earners on higher incomes should be paying for these services

Now take a wee look what Kenny is doing to the justice system

He is slowing trying to take more and more rights away from all of us

The big print giveth and the small print taketh

Kenny and co lawyers, bankers, ex coppers dont reli give two hoots about our scotland they care about there scotland there dreams and ambitions

Its the two years of power that these people will have should the country vote yes that concerns me

not scotlands independence

All that is needed post independence is a majority, a mandate to change all that is bad, but ask yourself why did we vote and give the SNP the massive majority it has, it was never meant to happen m8 but hey it did and now the SNP have a mandate to do what they like.

I agree that the Human Rights act is total schect, prisoners should have no rights, remember this, its the victims who serves the sentence, if a wee toe rag throws a brick through your window the cost comes out of your pocket, crime it only gets worse but just maybe if you take away the human rights factor crime figures may actually go down.

As for being on the right, a big Yes, i feed and pay my bills of capitalism profits, and why should i not benefit from council tax freezes etc and the wealthy too should benefit from free university for their kids, from me to the very rich, we are the ones who pay for the drugs,alcohol and cigarettes used and abused by those who do not contribute a penny, they are the real creators of poverty in our country, so i see no reason why those of us who can afford a reaonable life style shouldn't benefit from some of lifes tax reliefs.

Its up to you its your vote but agree this, you are in the minority, 70% want more powers, the only vote that give us more powers is the YES vote :D
