If it's a Yes vote...what will Salmond do if the EU step in and decide that they don't like the result?
The vote doesn't matter now. Either way Salmond is laughing his socks off - he's got what he wanted anyway without the vote. Cameron's a shmuck and a fool.
we knew this without all this palaver Cosi...I truly find it sad, I know most northerners feel the same...
yes we do - in fact I think a lot are very sad about it
Sooooo, we up in the North will do our best to help get rid of Cam (not that the others are any better) but we all know Cam's not working
Cam will be out in 2015...he might not be if Scotland goes...but god help us all with Cameron and Salmond in charge...I may use Oscar Pitorious's bathroom
I'm really not sure on that one Damesy
I thought a few months ago that he was, but now......

There's a point

EU won't like the result, they have made it quite clear.. expect dodgy underwear

he won't have the lib dems propping him up
They didn't accept the Irish vote so I'm expecting the same response this time (if it's a Yes).

Without Scotland they're wont be enough Labour MPs to form a Government again.
I detest him, if he isn't stopped he will ruin my country. His ability to rouse the rabble is scary, Sprout.
all for what..to weaken countries and not stick by though good and bad times...he's in for a shocker
I wonder who he'll blame when it all goes t!ts up and he hasn't got the "Westminster Government" to blame. Of course, he'll never admit it's his fault, when he's brought the country to its knees.
He'll still find a way to blame Westminster ....or big business ...or Europe....or anyone but himself !!
You can be sure of it. It's never his fault.

That's my point too Col Like I say, the others can and will make mistakes too, it's just I'm frightened of us not getting a chance to change it

I think there would be a revolt eventually
'we will keep the pound' - ''it's ours so you can't have it'' - 'look look(with pointing) they are bullying us!!'
'We will join the EU' - ''ve are not sure if ve vant you'' - 'look, look(with pointing) they are bullying us'
The investment banks lose 3% of their value, the pound plummets, companies look to moving out of Scotland - 'look,look, they are bullying us!!'

Heh heh! The peasants revolt eh but seriously, I can see this changing the WHOLE country

Then it's about time that the English found some decent Labour MPs of their own.

A little light relief from Twitter:
A little light relief from Twitter:
I blame Mel Gibson !
I blame Salmond with face paint
I blame Salmond full stop!!
Me too. That man has a lot to answer for.
A little bit of an aside, but I don't think I've mentioned this before and I was reminded of it again recently:
I actually met Alex Salmond way back in the early '90s. When asked by friends what my impression of him was, my response - which I still hold by - was
"Not quite as smug and self-righteous as Jim Sillars.".
A little light relief from Twitter:
I've been gone a long time without posting but hope you won't hold that against me. Oh how I've enjoyed this thread! I've laughed and I've cried....thank you all.
I'm going to try to remain non-political but no promises. I'm a NO voter for too many reasons to post but mostly because, in a world full of factions and fighting, I believe togetherness is the way forward for society...not breakups. I've been shocked at the attitude of hatred I've seen over the past few months and how this referendum has caused so much friction between family members, friends and communities. I.m saddened by it. I'm also drawn to what George Orwell said....... Patriotism is the love of your country, Nationalism is the hatred of other countries (not verbatim). I've seen too much of the latter.
Fingers crossed that sanity prevails this week.
Thanks again guys, great meeting up with you again.
There was a fella on the news earlier, he was asked why he was in the 'no' camp, he explained it this way:
'Everyone knows that if you are on a cliff the quickest way to get to the sea is to jump, the problem is that you have no idea how deep the water is or if it's even deep enough, surely it has to be better to use a rope'
