Scottish IndepenDENce YES or NO?

[dyna-ti]

I can't believe they want to give you all those *powers* where in reality you're still only the population of Yorkshire and we get screwed just as much.
Shouldn't we get similar abilities to screw ourselves ?

I thought you already had those powers

All I need is Rangers finding an legitimate investor and this is a perfect day.

Now we are talking the fantastical.

Re:

looking at what all the scots on here and on the fatbike forum were voteing and saying'
i thought it was on a knifeedge.
my hope now is it does some good;for all the jobless where ever they maybe wales or
northern england or even scotland turn the tide and do away with zero hour contracts and
all the rest of the crap the growth of a nation can not be achieved by keeping the down trodden down.

good luck scotland

Re:

The total number of votes was 3619915.

2,001,926 is roughly 23.7% more than 1,617,989 indeed.

But the difference, 383937, is only 10.6% odds of the total.

Not a huge margin by any measure, and small enough to give succour to the new SNP under a new leader, as well as all the other YES campaigners who feel short changed already as we hear talk of Westminster reneging on their promises.

Not the end of the matter by any means, and next time we will take a good chunk from those NO voters who fell for Wesminster's schtick.

God help Westminster if they return a Tory UKIP marriage at the next election!

No, they only gave us the powers to screw Goats.

Still, there are much worse people than the Scots - like Southerners, Geordies, people from Wigan, golfers (although there is some overlap there), BMW drivers, SUV drivers, fanatical Star Wars fans, reality TV watchers - and, oh yes, people who ride Carreras. The bastards!

You forgot to mention the Romans, and the People's front of Judea.

That's if there is a next time, I don't think there will be, Salmond has flounced off with his tail between his legs and it took him 20 years of work to get that referendum, just goes to prove he wanted to be king rather than independence & more decision powers for Scotland. Why walk away now when he could fight & help create those decision making powers?
Also keep your eyes peeled for his biography that will be in the shops soon and will make a killing if 1.6 million scots buy it, which they won't.
