This is not the unionist policies you promised , this is the news. Independence would just add to these ongoing worldwide problems not solve them. Link to comment

'We can't go independent because the future is unpredictable Yes , looks a bit ropey to me and better to stay with what we know even if it's shite. But I am old and younger generation will decide what's best. I am emigrating abroad in next few years ( always been the plan ) so only real concern is that my pension will be paid and the way these numpties at the SNP spend and in the future will borrow money is alarming me.

An Irish man told me this at work one day as they had been through it and general opinion in Eire is that Scots are crazy to go for independence. Oh well if you put like that then the evidence is insurmountable, where’s your proof of bankruptcy as every single nation that has went independent hasn’t went bankrupt?, even tiny tiny countries like Luxembourg which has no oil, minerals, decent stuff to sell within there country?you heard from Irish man and your putting all your belief in that, fuck the thoughts on the 5.5 million Scots thoughts or the rest of the Irish, just 1 Irish dude, am converted, who is this Herodotus of which you speak?. did the wee Irish fellow look like this? You sound like a hun, same hun rhetoric 1 Link to comment
