Salmond "We can take Scotland in two weeks"

[Old Greg]

Without a doubt the SE of England is home to the dullest people on Earth. I've worked in many places and many countries and nowhere is quite as soul destroying as London. I've not met many miserable Scots and I go along and watch Hibs most weekends.

You can see bad anywhere if you look hard enough. I loved living in London, although I wouldn't want to now that I have small kids. Perhaps working in London without living there is a different experience, but I think London is hard to judge from the areas where people don't tend to live.

That makes two of you

FTFY.

I had the unfortunate experience of going to Scotland for a funeral. It really was the direst place on Earth. I have also been to Ireland for a funeral and no matter what the weather there is always a great sense of occasion and fun attached to everything that goes on.

Im not sure what Recruitment agents do at funerals, but is Scotland funerals aren't really meant to be laugh a minute occasions.

From Gretna Green to Dignitas Scotland has it all.

That's how we intend to kick start the economy.

Why go to Switzerland ? We'll dispose of you for half the price.

One word: Ireland.

Here's another word: Leprechaun

What's your point caller?

We tout for references

We tout for references

Not a bad idea; the deceased can be quite useful when one is asked to provide references.

Who needs Dignitas?

What's your point caller?

The point being the flight of Irish graduates toward economies that will give them a better life. Ireland tanked during the recession, and it's still struggling. Scotland is likely to be in the same position: a net outflow of talent, and economic resources. All this nonsense about new scotland (sic) being the land of opportunity is laughable. Yes, there is opportunity to be had, but that small opportunity will be siphoned off to feed the gaping maw of the entitled classes.

Who needs Dignitas?

That is with the current Union and decades of focus on the South East by Westminster. With independence you will see 90 year old Glaswegians jogging around in a few years.
