I read in my morning paper (the i) that Rupe Murdoch and the Sun may be about to come out for a YES.

Wondering if that's cos he detests Westminster and all those meddling MPs wot got his beloved NotW and Rebekah Brookes in such a mess and wondering if YES campaign needs friends like these

Murdoch is everything I hate about politics and newspapers and I'm not happy at all if he wants to back my vote.I'm sure most folk on either side of any argument would agree he's a scumbag.

 

[Doon frae Troon]

He is the last guy I would want to see supporting Scotland.

Mind you he always has his eye on the money so he probably has a long term plan.

I heard at the weekend that King Eck was talking to Murdoch and didn't believe it. Murdoch can stay out of this as far as I'm concerned, he'll just cause trouble.

Agree re Murdoch but am more concerned about the loathsome Brian Souter pulling the nats strings

Indeed.But you need to separate nats from yes voters.I think I dislike Souter as much as humanly possible and I'm sure the LGBT Yes movement also wouldn't invite him round for tea.

No one is pulling my string ( unfortunately)

This is interesting, and begs the question, why would folk like Dewar/Brown and Darling move it and the timing also reeks.Better Together, with this kind of evidence?Aye right.

Apparently I've already contributed to this thread back in the mists of time. But I'm buggered if I can remember what I said. So in order not to contradict myself I'll give my opinion, feel free to delete the bits you don't agree with.

I think it's a great idea as the Scots deserve to be masters of their own destiny/stupid idea as they have no chance on their own in todays globalised economy and economically Scotland will prosper by being able to control its own finances/crash spectacularly on its own and be have to be bailed out by a bunch of smug English politicians saying 'told you so'.

Obscene. But unsurprising!

Interesting to see PMQT being cancelled tomorrow, plus the raft of new powers being offered.

The NHS one in particular.If I lived in England/Wales I'd be disgusted with this promise to safe guard The NHS...it looks like a way of setting Scotland against England/Wales/NI, something no one wants I think.Seriously, if this is what they call Better Together, we're better under independence, for everyones sake.

The seabed boundary issue is old hat. It was changed 15 years ago and no-one has really questioned it until now. SNP did try to fight this, but to no avail. There's still a lot of water out there and seabed that is "ours"

Why change it?Doesn't it worry you that it was changed on the date it was?

And if we do vote YES I'd hope the Scottish govt did challenge it

The Three Amegos all coming up to Scotland to 'campaign' tomorrow.
Saltires will fly from all English public buildings, why would they imply to be supporting the Yes campaign. Should obviously be the Union Flag........Very strange [don't panic , don't panic]

I think they have been summoned to the Balmoral carpet by the Heidie.

1999 was a long time ago, we still 'loved' Tony at that time and thought he was the best thing since sliced bread. Sneaked through onto the Staute Books, but so is so much else in this world. It's really only an extension of the line of the Scottish and English boundary.

 

[Doon frae Troon]

Well that's my vote off.
I feel sorry for the postal voters who were unable to make a balanced educated choice due to the Bitter Together late announcement.

And so it came to pass - with the YES hordes of the evil Salmond assailing the walls of Helm Deep - and with brave Darling and his elfen allies battling to save the stronghold - Gandalf and the Riders of Rohan head north in a last minute attempt to save the Kingdom from destruction. But will they succeed?

Stick to your day job.

So Carney confirms that given the intransigence of Westminster political parties, a currency union won't work. All the Economic requirements are there, just not the political will at Westminster.I wonder how the Three Amigos will spin that one tomorrow?

And as they continue to bring confusion to the table,billions are being lost to European pension funds and the value of their currency.They really are making a complete mess of this.Too negative, too far, too bad.They'll reap what they sow.
