    We're steam rolling into a huge misinformed vote. General elections have more preparation.


    So, you're saying the Scottish referendum was comprehensive and not misinformed.
    Excellent, does that mean you Scottish exiles who refuse to live there or pay tax there but want a say in how it is run will now shut up about independence? It wasted a fortune of the UKs money to have that vote, one the SNP never wanted to win outright, and yet when they lost all they want to do is run it again.
    …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

      The Scottish exiles were long driven out by years of Tory rules destroying anything that remained of industry. So the young folk leave.

        Ah yes, blame the English for everything. Would you like salt & vinegar for the chip on your shoulder?

          I'm not blaming the dinglish for anything. The Government however. That's why Scotland has it's own parliament now.

            Us English of course, the builders merchants don't accept Giros.

            Statistically If you vote to stay in then you are most likely to be still wet behind the ears looking forward to doing a degree in flower arranging and have a Gaelic accent.

              And you're also likely to be younger and have a higher IQ.

                Its more a question of rich or poor. I suppose in general the higher your IQ the richer you are. There are a few exceptions on CUK.

                    yep we paid for a toy parliament for you so you stopped moaning. Now if only they actually made some decisions other than how to spend the extra money they get.

                      They don't want to make decisions, that involves taking responsibility for their own actions rather than blaming the English for everything

                      They're just a spoilt teenager that doesn't want to leave home, but just wants mummy and daddy to keep providing free buckie and deep fried mars bars
                      Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

                      No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.
