  1. I think a retention of the capability to destroy large cities, whilst simultaneously killing hundreds of thousands of people is money well spent and puts the Great in Britain. I also like seats at top tables and influence at G8 summits. We really are Great.
  2. Appears to be an 11.2 million pound defecit. I think there must be loads of similar situations. What do you suggest. I think we should pool and share resources, to continue this excellent service.
  3. However, this is not my constituency. So I will vote SNP, with a view to getting a left wing Labour government in Westminster, which will cooperate with Holyrood and realise our country's aspirations. Fingers crossed.
  4. Fair enough. I don't know enough about the candidates. Evil sounds a bit much, but I think would vote for Katy.
  5. Too many of my friends who voted no, love to call themselves Scottish, revel in its identity but felt that individually it was going to hurt them in the pocket. And there we have it. Tragic.
  6. An independent country Lots of natural resources Highly educated population Speak the international language Home of golf. Tiger Woods richest sportsman ever Decent tourism industry Whisky. Say No more Etc Using currency (bits of paper and metal) and business moving out (oil workers in countries require armed guards to go to work ffs) as an excuse is lame. Scotland is a modern European country, which would thrive. List half a dozen thing required for a successful country, and we have then all. Vote no because you want to be part of Britain, but da gie me the uncertainty and risk pish. Rant over. Good night
  7. This ISIL bunch wouldn't have been around under Saddam's watch. Not with him having heaps of WMDs as a deterrent. Cameron - "The people in that regime, as well as trying to take territory, are also planning to attack us here at home in the United Kingdom.'' These bad guys obviously don't realise we have Nukes to prevent this type of aggressive behaviour.
  8. The Great Referendum Swindle ''Ever get the feeling you've been cheated'' Anyone photoshop an album cover?
  9. So the Queen needed a phone call from Dave to find out the result. Aye right, nae TVs in her house. Wonder if he told her on Wednesday night
  10. My son who is 15 and was so desperate to vote YES (not just becasue of me, he did his own research at school), why Scotland voted NO. Without resorting to the irrational 'because we are a nation of cowardly shit*bags' , which I know isn't true having read some coherent points about why people chose to vote no. Anything humurous would be welcome to cheer me up and he also likes a laugh. Cheers Just walked through the sqaure in town and there was strange almost surreal atmosphere and I couldn't help but think - what would this be like if it had turned out differenty. Still aboot greetin
  11. Don't give the 10% of English people living here a vote, which probably accounted for around 400K votes, and could have almost made the difference Joking aside, some of the comments above seem sensible. I understand and agreed the softly softly approach of transition put forward this time, but I wonder if a full-on independence strategy would now be a better way to go, in particular with a clear proposition for own banks/currency. Royals could be a sticking point - although maybe not such a problem in 15 to 20 years time. Still devastated
  12. Incredible effort from those on the ground. Feel a bit inadequate that I haven't done more. But surely 60% isn't realistic. Is this the additional 20% - maybe 750k - voters who don't come out for general elections mainly coming out for YES, because their vote actually counts for once. I hope this is the case, but l'll take 51%. I'm still wary of a stitch up, if it's close.
  13. Same here, but not sure the site states the number. I wonder if the number of signatories is why some on here are very confident. I hope it is significant, and those who have signed all vote tomorrow.
  14. There was an announcement when it reached 1 million. I think it was reported another 150K was gained in a few of weeks after that. Not seen anything since.
  15. Up to 64% now Wow - is he in Dundee? Anyway thanks for the update, that's put my mind at ease again I'll not bother voting tomorrow then
  16. Still think around 1.65 to 1.7 million will be required to win. Can't think straight, and struggling to get any productive work done. Need a 'Flure' prediction, for a wee boost.
  17. Mmm, liking the analysis from twitter EW. I know 60% has been mentioned here before, but I can't see it. Young guy on the streets the other day during the TV coverage said 'landslide'. Hope he is right. I'll guess at a 77% turnout - need around 1.62 million to win (surely NO won't reach that, surely). Have 1.3 million really signed up for YES? not sure where I go that from - would be a great platform.
