kps022000 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Watching Osborne on the Marr show this morning. Cross party discussions this week on what new powers will be in place as soon as there is a no vote. Much more fiscal autonomy but stopped well short of full autonomy. Also, there will be categorically no sharing of the pound by any UK government. I assume Osborne is the sacrificial lamb now that Boris will be back in parliament. He has really painted himself into a corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Bongo Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Absolute political suicide ..unless there is a No vote They really just dont get it. They still honestly think that a currency union is at the top of everyone's voting agenda Probably at least half voting Yes dont want one and the other half couldnt give a fook ...

kps022000 Posted September 7, 2014 Author Share Posted September 7, 2014 Just catching up with Sunday Politics with Gordon Brewer. You would have thought that someone would have picked up the phone to Carmichael and told him what they were going to announce an hour beforehand. Painful viewing.

Haggis_trap Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) See Milliband is also saying there will be armed border controls! No country in Europe has armed border controls with its neighbours. It has been this way since the Berlin Wall came down You would think that Ed Milliband, the son of immigrant Polish / Jewish parents, would be open minded enough to realise this ? Look at the border between EIRE and UK / NI for an example of what it would be most likely be like. No passport required Edited September 7, 2014 by Haggis_trap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must think we button up the back. If undecided voters pause to think about the utter drivel that the unionist parties have been peddling in the last few days, the only conclusion is that they hold us in total contempt.

I am getting that feeling as well. Even a few hard NO voters I've spoken too are admitting to be embarrassed about these desperate tactics.

Betty Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 There's a few no voters I've spoken to who are actually thinking about changing their mind. ... and they were vehemently no. Between violating purdah, the imminent pay rise and Gordon Brown, they're running out of feet to shoot themselves in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a condensed version of current Westminster politics in and it is shameful. Edited September 7, 2014 by scotlad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacobite Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 My pal was told he wouldn't get the lung transplant he was waiting on .He has since had it and now he's been told that he wont get his medication or follow up.When even Gordon Brown is peddling that one you can't expect his minions to be any different.

kps022000 Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 Who would have thought it, the panic button appears to be a big whoopee cushion. So the cross party agreement on future powers announced on Sunday falls to bits after less than 24 hours. Even the 10 o'clock news could not spin it into something positive. "Vote No on the 18th and we will do something on the 19th, well, we will set something in motion on the 19th. We can also guarantee that we will all come together to deliver these promises under a labour government, in January, maybe, if we are in power."

I think he was regretting that 'Devo Max' had replaced 'Status Quo' as the outcome of 'No' on the ballot paper. Gave the impression he'd rather not even have devolution.
