There is no guarantee that those three will be in office soon. Even if they are, the majority in the HoC could vote against new powers, or the HoL could vote against new powers.Originally posted by CheeseSlice View PostThis just in. They've signed a vow!
David Cameron, Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg sign joint historic promise which guarantees more devolved powers for Scotland and protection of NHS if we vote No - Daily Record

PS: either Nick Clegg needs to use a better biro, or he has a really shaky hand.
The vow is not worth the paper it's written on (or the paper it's written in)
They had the chance to put these options on the ballot paper but refused saying it was a red line issue.Comment

OFFS experts on both sides disagree on the level of oil available.Originally posted by Unix View PostOnly monopolies or cartels can charge what they can get away with. Scotland has potentially 3-4 trillion pounds worth of oil they will be viewed as a safe bet..
This is something I DO understand. If governments default on debt they are viewed as a MASSIVE risk and the markets will price accordingly. It's economics 101 ffs.Comment

Same here!Originally posted by Old Greg View PostI'm enjoying this immensely, and I'll be really disappointed if it's a No, just because I'd hate to miss how this turns out.Comment

No guarantee at all. It's all about balancing risk isn't it? Same as CU, sterlingisation and EU membership.Originally posted by Batcher View PostThere is no guarantee that those three will be in office soon.

Sweden has the cheapest AND fastest internet in the world. You are buying the scare stories being fed to you because you have a weak mind and are an imbecile.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostDon't confuse him with higher cost base and less competition. Because he knows competition will keep prices the same or even drive them lower!Last edited by Unix; 16 September 2014, 10:22.Comment

How did Sweden overcome economics, is it a miracle? Or is it more likely a sheep knows more about economic than you?

Not if the underlying cost to the businesses is increased. They all have target profit margins.Originally posted by Unix View PostCompetition will ensure the price remains the same, if not lower. This is the same crap the supermarkets pulled, all it takes is one to not put their prices up and they soak up all the customers.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
