Cagey Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Stock market down almost 2% today. If there had been a yes vote then that would have got the blame. Wendy Saints, garydavidson and rammsteinally 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy Saints Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Furthermore, many said that this was not about Salmond but the issue for many of those, who were wavering, was the fact that he has no charisma and is boring to listen to. If you need to blame anyone then he is the boy that failed. Eh!? lmsaintee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintj Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 Maybe next time we'll get some fair media coverage and the unionists won't be breaking the law in a desperate attempt to keep the union going I really do hope that Westminster just ''dingy'' giving Scotland more powers. I think we'll see another referendum sooner rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagerf Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Think Cameron needs his ears tested while the Queen may be happy with the result she almost certainly would not have purred. Maybe he was dreaming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUE MAGIC Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 The thought of the Queen "purring" down the phone to David Cameron gies me the boak. Maybe she thought she was speaking to George Galloway I would have purred down the phone too, if i had fooled millions of scottish people into voting to keep the same deal and possibly an even worse deal than they already have. This is the illuminati at work, right on your doorstep and in your face! suckers Wendy Saints 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitsjfc Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Pro union side being investigated by police Scotland today for breaking electoral law, Ruth Davidson been caught out taking tallie of the postal votes weeks before the referendum. Out of curiosity aswell did anyone look at the back of their ballot paper? I did when folding it in half and noticed it was blank and raised the question with polling station staff as I thought there was meant to be something on the back but they dismissed it and told me to put it in the box, I found out afterwards that it should of had - an official local council stamp, a unique identification number and barcode, and say 'referendum 18th September 2014' Did anyone have anything similar?

Hope we don't go down this route. It won't change the result. That said, the postal vote system is clearly being used for purposes for which it wasn't intended (ie sampling, which could affect how one side conducts the rest of the campaign). I'm worried how prevalent it's become. I think we should look at restricting its use. Wendy Saints 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ancientsaint Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Dont you just LOVE politics -One minute we are crying out for Independence ONLY for it to be voted down by many Scots YET we might get it because England wants a crack at Home rule. Cameron wants to grind Labour down and Labour doesnt want to rush in because it might harm their chances of being a ruling party in Westminster.

garydavidson Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 I wonder how many postal votes were lost, or is it only decent stuff they like to misplace in the postal system?

While you're waiting, I assume you'll give him credit for always being against killing ordinary people in Iraq - which is, after all, a major cause of the current situation?

Kyle Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Don't arm or give training to volitile religious groups to be pawns in your own battles. That's something that's bitten US/UK interests time and again, yet they continue to make the same mistakes. As much as Assad is a nutter and has to go, arming militia in foreign countries is not the way forward. I'd wager a comfortable majority of people in Scotland would be against going to war again (just like the last time and the time before that) and we're stuck with it. Them's the rolls when you're just the most Northern region of England. Brogan and garydavidson 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Ah you are all for the Emu approach. Bury your head in the sand and hope it does not affect us. What are you on about? It only affects us because we decided to get involved in other people's business. We bombed Iraq and created a seemingly unfixable fracture in their society, with sectarianism and open rebellion rife. We armed the 'rebels' in Syria to fight Assad and those rebels have turned out to be ISIS or linked to ISIS. Assad is the more pallatable of the two alternatives, I'm sure you'll agree. It's not our place to be getting involved and wading in on other country's affairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
