    which is all very nice - but there will be no more referendum for a while.

    So, we voted 'No' that's democracy, are these rallies in support of the SNP? Or do we have to have to keep having the referendum until you get the answer you want?

    Do we really have to go through years of this nationalist puerile sh1t.
    The Neverendum I think it's called

    The rallies are for all pro-indy supporters around the45+ banner and to show Westminster we won't just melt away.

    We're not talking about a referendum just now anyway, the target is the GE and that's only 8 months away.

      The nationalists oil revenue projections will be the most crucial element to the post referendum discussion.

      Most people thought they were talking tulipe, if they predicted correctly they will gather more support.
      Lord Whatisit of Kelvin has been appointed to oversee the discussions on transfers of powers with 2 from each party attending. The SNP will no doubt ask for all oil revenues to come to Scotland. Shouldn't be a problem since the oil is running out and worth jack-tulip anyway

          “VITAL” FOR WESTMINSTER PARTIES TO HONOUR VOW ON POWERS

          Deputy First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and Finance Secretary John Swinney this evening met with Lord Smith of Kelvin to discuss the details of the Smith Commission which will look at strengthening the powers of the Scottish Parliament.

          Following the meeting, a spokesperson for the Deputy First Minister said:

          “Nicola Sturgeon and John Swinney met with Lord Smith this afternoon and have confirmed that the SNP will participate fully in the process he has set out. As the First Minister set out in his statement we welcome Lord Smith’s appointment and we have made clear to him our belief that there must be meaningful consultation not only with civic Scotland but also with all of those who have become so engaged in the political process as a result of the referendum. It is vital that the Westminster parties honour their vow to the people of Scotland to deliver substantial more powers to our national parliament.”

            If Labour is decimated come next May, all the better. This is the gift that just keeps on giving. Maybe the Lib dems will be, too. Oh wait, that's already happening.

              Good luck with that.

                  What is SNP going to do if the promises aren't kept - which they will claim they weren't regardless? Maybe they'll do a Unix and thcream and thcream 'til they're thick?
