Annual GERS Figures

[Returnofrros]

can't remember what the polls were like prior to the 2014 referendum but I thought they were slightly in favour of independence. seems to me that Gordon Brown played a part in helping to defeat the independence side, and I think he was speaking to the ordinary Labour voter.

He only speaks to racists and bigots.😁

"Who put me with that wonan, was it Sue....ridiculous"

See socialists love to talk about the "ordinary people" but don't actually like them.......game over "call me Dave" is the winner.

I always thought he had a big brain, big ideas but little common sense and was as bitter as **** thinking he had missed his time.

We voted to stay part of the Union, so that decision lasts for a generation.

What union? The dictatorship?

What union? The dictatorship?

you see it as a dictatorship? what do you think we have at Holyrood?

you see it as a dictatorship? what do you think we have at Holyrood?

Right now? Nothing.

Then you'll agree Scotland voted to remain in the EU?

No.

It was a Uk vote.

The Uk we voted to stay a part of in 2014.

What union? The dictatorship?

Dictatorship?

You'll need to give some examples.

[Deeranged]

No.

It was a Uk vote.

The Uk we voted to stay a part of in 2014.

Do you mean the UK that many of us voted to no longer be part of? The UK that Scotland originally became part of without a democratic vote but solely on the votes of noblemen who suddenly gained cash and lands in Yorkshire. That UK?

[Deeranged]

Dictatorship?

You'll need to give some examples.

The people of Scotland consistently vote contrary to the people of England / Wales. We often have governments foisted upon us that we don't want (Tories) who dictate their policies, the policies voted for by the English electorate, to us. If you have policies forced upon you by an unelected government how else can you define it?

We have no say in running the 'union' but they gave us a sterile assembly to placate us so I suppose that's something.

Scotland didn't have a vote, or a Nigel or a bus.

The EU referendum in June 2016 was decided by the vote of the whole of the UK.
There were not separate votes in Scotland, England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Gibraltar.
Using the SNP mentality the electorate of Gibraltar who voted by a huge majority for the UK to remain in the EU, the residents of Gibraltar should be able to remain in the EU. That would have been an extremely bad move for Gibraltar as the UK forces left Gibraltar and left the residents of Gibraltar to the mercy of Spain who have had their eyes set on acquiring Gibraltar for many years.

Creeping up towards 60% now
Once it hits that figure the Empire will need to go into propaganda overdrive , they could do worse than recruit some of the Pro union boys from here (and they have with Galloway)
Michael Gove George Galloway ,Rros, Noah ,Mad Doogie dream team would get get my vote.

Shuntz.
I am delighted to be included in your dream team.
I can assure if there is any danger of a second ‘once in a generation’ Scottish Independence referendum I will not hold back and I will expose all the ‘cover ups’ that have taken place by the SNP controlled Scottish Government since they were elected in May 2007.
My MSP Michael Russell told me in an email last January that he considered that a generation could be a short as FOUR years.
That is what we are up against. SNP politicians who are determined to change the rules to suit their own agenda.
He asked how long I thought a generation was. I replied at least 16 years but I reality at least 21 years.
Michael Russell then made the mistake of asking where I thought that the Scottish Government were not doing a good job and to give him examples.
I replied telling him and gave him examples which had personality affected me.
He did not reply to my email and a month later announced that he was not seeking election for the Argyll and Bute constituency in the May 2021 Scottish Government elections.
In my opinion Michael Russell should have immediately stepped down resulting in a by election but like most politicians he is happy to claim his lavish MSP salary and expenses until the end of this Government in April 2021.
