“The period of the disintegration of the European Union has begun. And the first vessel to have departed is Britain” -
Originally posted by jemb View PostI, and others, voted No because all the Yes campaign tulip was basically that - total la-la-land tulip. Not one answer to any of the hard questions on currency, the EU, fiscal responsibility, budget. It was an abject load of utter tulip that managed to sucker 45% of the Scottish population on a mix of dreams, nationalism and utter fvckwittery.

The Scottish parliament is in need of some real politicians, probably the type everyone hates but get the job done.Last edited by BlasterBates; 19 September 2014, 16:03.I'm alright JackComment

Originally posted by scooterscot View PostI read that 5% of people spoilt their ballot papers. HOW?!?!
Both boxes had a cross in them (it was in the hundreds). Not sure if it was meant to spoil the papers.
The voter could be identified (some had written their name, or signed it)Comment

Originally posted by CheeseSlice View PostAnd the EU or Commonwealth worker in Scotland. Wonder how much these accounted for though. Insignificant?
Or the OAPs who were told their pensions would be cut if it was a Yes?
Dirty tricks by the establishment.Comment

Originally posted by VectraMan View PostIf a foreigner is looking to make their long term future a life in Scotland, then they should have got a vote because it affects them. On the other hand, all the Scots who love Scotland so much they're making their long term future a more prosperous life in England (or Germany) have no right to expect to vote.Comment

Originally posted by SueEllen View PostYou wont get a referendum again until the 16-17 are in their 50s. It was stupid for Salmond to ask for them to be included.
And if the bill is drafted like it is now where nothing is agreed the "Yes" won't win.
The 16 year olds won't be old enough to vote in the GE and they showed disappointment at that.Comment

Originally posted by Batcher View PostLike the Polish workers who were told by the Better Together doorsteppers that if there was a Yes vote they would have to go back to Poland as they wouldn't be allowed to stay?
Or the OAPs who were told their pensions would be cut if it was a Yes?
Dirty tricks by the establishment.
You failed to sell your fvcknonsene and lost. Now - get a grip and look to the future or leave; you would have expected that of me if the Yes vote had won.Comment
