I wouldn't glorify my stance as tactical voting. I'm just still livid that she sat on her blue and white arse in a TV studio in London the other week and told everyone that she was basically hoping for a Brexit vote so she could resurrect the "once in a lifetime" referendum.

Fine, darling, you tell me what you want to me do and I'll do the opposite.
England will drag scotland out of the EU against our will

Brexit>indyref2>scottish independence>destruction of the last embers of the english empire

Then we can get a better deal then cameron ever could when we join the EU

Why would they keep out scotland when we have the worlds largest oil field in our waters


So i am voting to leave the EU

I didn't think there was previously enough humour or satire in the "winge over" posts, however this one clearly has shades of wiggle. The mocking of the ScotNat logic fail is a bit too obvious!

She's traitorous scum.

But her position does rather presuppose that Scotland will vote to stay, which I'm not sure will be the case, or at least not as comprehensively as she would like. And even if it does, what part of the words 'UK referendum' doesn't she understand?

This is a UK/EU issue. She has literally no dog in the fight so should really ps off and concentrate on the diddy wee powers she's actually got.

Given the EU is a union of nearly 700million people can you explain how you think a country with 5 million people massively overspending and with vast legacy debt worse than Greece without any industry generating taxes would be a benefit to Europe? You do understand that they would then be on the hook of bailing you out and of course as you'd have to join the € like any new member of any € country goes down the pan you have no choice but to pay in.

Also if you actually do better than he others in he EU you'll then get stung with a higher annual charge to the EU just as the UK did and there is nothing you could do about it.


If Indy supporters were genuine and wanted Indy and out of EU rather than switch from one Union to another they would have merit for that stance but it's utterly illogical.
We are sub 10% of the U.K. But have 10% influence Join the EU we will have 0.7% of the EU and would be one of 28/29 countries just how can you think you'd have more influence?

And he's an idiot even for a dog.

Did I hear Salmond correct this morning? It sounded like he was saying the the referendum date was done on purpose to upset the Scottish elections.

Yes they've been saying that but they asked for six weeks and guess what, they got six weeks.

Did he ask for something to benefit Scotland, get it, then complain about it? If yes, then you probably did.

Umberto Eco passed yesterday. Was reading his words about fascism just now. This is an extract.

7. To people who feel deprived of a clear social identity, Ur-Fascism says that their only privilege is the most common one, to be born in the same country. This is the origin of nationalism. Besides, the only ones who can provide an identity to the nation are its enemies. Thus at the root of the Ur-Fascist psychology there is the obsession with a plot, possibly an international one. The followers must feel besieged.

Interesting words.

Scottish widows now officially registered in London.

I could have sworn that companies leaving Scotland due to the poisonous snp was spoken about on one of these threads.

It was of course rubbished by some.

Interesting.

Cue the boycott from the SNats..... oh, hang on. Welfare-mongers living hand-to-mouth won't have much call for financial products.

That is intersting.

So IF SNP change corporation tax then Scottish widows will not be contributing one £0.01 towards to Scottish budget. Of course they employ people in Scotland & likely will not move where the office is unless there is a yes vote for Scotland to leave the UK.


They will want to be part of the 5th largest economy in the world not part of a tiny economy like Scotlands

The EU isn't just about Germany y'know ... Oh but yea but ... It is.

Also as England creates the most Profitable GDP which is then shared out throughout the UK to be most needy I'd say it very much is & more directly it's all about London. It shouldn't but it is and will remain that way until other areas of the country start making significant profitably GDP.

From the Facebook group united against seperation.


SNP HYPOCRISY 101
The hypocrisy of the SNP continues with the accelerator pedal jammed at full speed ahead.
It appears that while the SNP wanted Donald Trump banned from the UK, and removed his Global Scot status, they wouldn't mind if he took the Scottish Government owned Prestwick Airport off their hands.

The scottish widows move doesn't surprise me. Since the snp upped their nuisance level, we haven't done business with scottish companies financially, both personally & professionally. Aberdeen AM have also seen a considerable depletion of their AUM of late.

sturgeon was her usual self on The Andrew Marr show, even though she & Cameron now share a common aim of staying in Europe, she made the point that Cameron had better not come to scotland to campaign as he is never received well. (she was a lot harsher).
Really welcoming in encouraging relations and business with the rest of the UK/Europe?World.
It's a very odd stance individual dislike - assuming not criminal activities, if he is in full agreement with your position why would him attending Scotland do anything but improve it.

Sounds like a ghetto.

Sturgeon best not come to London again as your never received well.

It seems another one of her ridiculous "demands".

Cameron, should campaign there if he sees fit, but make sure it ties in with a visit by "The Donald" to scotland at the same time. Surely even the scots only have so much hate to go round?

Purely for entertainment value! smile
Well if that's her view she can keep the frick out of London. She's certainly not wanted here.
