Salmond "We can take Scotland in two weeks"

[tomtomagain]

Cause for the majority it works rather well.

Surely you mean.

For the Germans it works very well.

???

You're making the assumption people of working age have to be 'in work'.

Since 86' Italy's unemployment rate has always floated around 10%. People in the UK are poorer, more working class, they have to work for the landlord.

Gold reserves:

Italy 2,451.8 tons

United Kingdom 310 tons


Independent Scotland could claim part of £7.8bn gold reserves

Of course iScotland would get a share of the gold reserves. Assets and debts are split according to an agreed formula. It's hardly a revelation.

Although of course, it could just be a fiction planted by a No supporter.

It reads like it. The Scotsman is a known unionist paper.

Even RBS's announcement made clear today jobs were not a risk. The operation is not moving, only the trading address is. Yet the entire media have jumped on the 'jobs will be lost' bandwagon.

The scaremongering really is stupid.

IMO the no camp would succeed with much greater influence if they focus on the impact the outcome the referendum would have on the rUK and that was made clear day in day out.

I don't think many in Scotland know or care (a small number).

What austerity? The UK still spends way more than it earns.

Think things can't get worse? Try moving to Greece.

If Scotland votes yes it will get worse for them. Much worse.

Fancy going into Pilton or Easterhouse and asking them 'what austerity'? Try telling them that they would be worse off if they lived in Greece.

People have had benefits cut because they have a spare bedroom in which they need to keep equipment for a disabled child.

No. I fancy getting them to live in Greece for a while.

Though being Scottish they will probably still be whining.

Don't worry about Brillo. His post shows that he is unsurprisingly ignorant of the meaning of austerity.

I think they may as well vote YES. This is a comment today on the Scotsman website.

One of many I would expect..

I notice there weren't any firms or people named. Could it just be made up since it's the unionist Scotsman?

Companies trade across borders all the time and in different currencies. Customers buy all the time on the internet from companies who are based in Jersey & Luxembourg.

Might be made up. Might be real. But it's just noise.

Apartheid was vile - Salmond dragging that in is an insult to those who suffered under it.

At least all of Scotlands political prisoners will be freed and the pass laws dropped. Men with kilts will now be allowed in the ladies toilets
