The fundamental issue for me is that I believe that better decisions will be made for Scotland when only Scotland needs to be considered. In national (UK) policy, Scotland's issues are only considered to a small degree. That's the only real issue. It's a 'no-brainer' for me. But as usual you fail to articulate anything (indeed not one single thing - EVER) that is so different in respect of what Scotland needs (versus the rest of the UK) and nor anything to explain why , how & where it is so constrained today & exactly what it is that can't be achieved under the current situation Flag waving & face paint is therefore all that is left - as usual.  Never waived a flag in my life. It's the 'meme' of this thread, isn't it? LOL The point I make is quite clearly stated. It's very simple so that you can understand it.  You have no point, and that is the point. You can provide no evidence or information to support your "point" or position save for bulls  t and fairy dust as usual. (Lack of face painting denial to accompany flag waving denial also duly noted  )

Ha Ha! Haven't visited this thread for a while and the Tartan Troll known as VP is still jerking your chain TF! You need to relax man, there won't be a Yes vote. There was never any great appetite for Independence before the SNP got into power and there isn't any now - even amongst 16-17yr olds. The only reason the hee-drum-ho brigade got in was because Scottish Labour were complacent and no-one votes Tory up here any more. Fat Alex, with his obsession for wind farms and the SG overturning local planners' refusals for them is alienating his core vote on a grand scale - almost like he knows he's going to lose his Independence vote. We don't want Devo-max - our politicians are even more stupid/wasteful than the Westminster clowns.

In national (UK) policy, Scotland's issues are only considered to a small degree. That's the only real issue. It's a 'no-brainer' for me. Well my beliefs are the polar opposite to yours. Who'd've thunk it!? I think we'll be significantly less prosperous out of the UK, and I'm sure you're aware of the arguments for this case. We might even be backed into corners by financial hardship that the UK economy, Bank of England, and so on protect us from just now, or into other corners by the EU to join the Euro... I'm not convinced we'll have many options! But still, at least they'll be our problems, and nobody else's. This is not the way of things though. Things sort themselves out into an efficient state. Beautifully complex non-linear process but amazingly simple. Peace man. Tell that to the Greeks...

Although Mr 110% ain't helping! So we could of carried on with labours borrow borrow and borrow a bit more to pay off the borrowing and everything would be fine I'll give you one thing You certainly don't understand money But I think the underlying principle of what you are going on about is actually right. If left to its own devices the economy would settle out fine. Sadly we have these people called politicians who f  k the whole thing up. So if we could have an independant scotland without the Scottish government i'd probably say YES
