ibelieve!!! Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 There was some women on Sky this morning (think it was at a Whitehill Welfare match) said she was voting no because she "thought local tourism and education were better served" as part of the Union!! There was a 3rd 'reason' but I can't remember what it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redz Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 My mates wife is voting no because, wait for it, she fuking hates him. I would guess there's a bit of this 'outwardly' but will change when they're in that booth with said pen in hand. (Hopefully anyway!) It's not as if anyone is going to know they changed their mind, is it? Win Win - They get to be 'seen' (For whatever reason) as an AS hater, but also get what they REALLY REALLY want.

Armchair Bob Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Clout Britishness Most family or business in England and don't want any risk of any barriers Is a Tory and thinks iScotland will be run by socialists for ever These are some of the genuine positions I have heard in favour of the union. Most other positions (want to keep NHS, Scotland's too poor) are down to ignorance and easy enough to argue against. But if someone is Tory for example and genuinely delighted with the prospect of UKIP and Boris, I just leave them to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Benefits being better under Westminster. ... or, my personal favourite - I don't know enough so I'm voting no.

Big Col Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 heard somebody question what happens to their private regy plate on their car.

exile Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Someone who doesn't fancy the left-of-centre consensus of Scotland likely to result from a Yes vote. Someone who, despite being a no voter, reckons the BT campaign have been scaremongering over all the economic arguments. My conclusion: The Tories are just looking after themselves, but are at least honest about it. But Labour are trying to deny to the majority of Labour-leaning Scots a solution that would be in their own interests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
