Tartan Tarantula Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Not been to Dundee for a while, but if comments on here are correct, I find this very hard to believe: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/scottish-independence/scottish-independence-vote-salmond-boasts-of-unstoppable-momentum-9731659.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thplinth Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 David Cameron should carry the blame if Scotland backs independence this week, for forcing an all-or-nothing vote, Alex Salmond said last night, as the SNP leader claimed there was “unstoppable” momentum behind the “Yes” campaign. ...First Minister Mr Salmond said that it was the Prime Minister who “fought tooth and nail” to keep a third option of “devo max” off the ballot paper. I have never thanked anyone so much in my whole life when David Cameron forced a two choice all or nothing question. Thanks again Dave.

exile Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Not been to Dundee for a while, but if comments on here are correct, I find this very hard to believe: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/scottish-independence/scottish-independence-vote-salmond-boasts-of-unstoppable-momentum-9731659.html I don't know about Dundee but after yesterday's edition I would not treat what the Independent says as being impartial 'independent' information. They had a scare story on their front page implying 'vicious' campaign, and intimidation by Yes, citing only Better Together sources and no right to reply from Yes.

kumnio Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Dundee has never been, and never will be a No stronghold. That's is absolute utter tosh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 If Dundee returns less than 65% YES, it will have been fixed. Absolutely no doubt in my mind about that. Unfortunately it's just a wee place (about 2.5% of the total electorate, I think) so doesn't have a huge influence in the result overall. But every vote counts in this referendum.

Toepoke Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 If your only impression of Dundee was the output of DC Thomson then you may be inclined to think it's a No stronghold.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flure Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I was in Dundee a couple of weeks ago, and the title of "Yes City" did not appear to be misplaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donaldo87 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Even if they polled in a lodge I doubt they'd get those kind of percentages for Glasgow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintlyscot Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Agree. How galling for the courier editorial given their blatant no bias. Haha.

kumnio Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 The Courier is a nonsensical piece of shite. Only coffin dodgers but it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peever1745 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Im in Dundee every other day and Dundee is very much a Yes city even so much so that if the vote is no they will declair independence for Dundee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
