The end of the union

[fatshaft]

From the man who is in charge with the economic case, an admission that he could see a recovery of the position it now finds itself in now over a five to 10-year period post independence. (big emphasis on "could"). He also says they should run a steady as it goes economic policy with no tax rises. This would mean cutting services dramatically and hurting the poorest in Scotland as we cannot continue to run a $15bn deficit or borrow and still be within the rules for joining the EU.

Come on min, you know that deficit isn't real right?

If you have not already done so I would suggest reading The Price of Scotland about the Darien Scheme and the affects debt and the resulting unstable currency in Scotland and how this in so small way created the union in the first place.

erm yes, we all know about the 1% selling out the 99%.

However we're talking about WM allocating administrative spending and percentages of capital projects like HS2 tat have no bearing on Scotland, and would disappear with independence. Or Trident. Or a huge armed forces we wouldnt have. Or, well it goes on.

that is nothing to do with that scheme. jeez. should not have suggested you actually reading anything that has not been sanctioned by heir Sturgeon.

Nope, wrong again. If you take the costs of all these things you get a maximum of a couple billion pounds. Not a dent in the massive deficit black hole. You should stop taking the looney tunes political scraps the SNP gives you (or any other party) and do your own research.

Not a popular view on here but there is a difference between a few folk that are unfortunate enough to follow sevco and proper Huns. I'm quite comfortable tarring them all with the same brush however

Huns are what you find in George Square the day the result came in. Where getintaethem will be

I have quite happily debated on here with people who have shown an ability to debate. Sancho Panza has posted pretty interesting points, as an example, and we have debated in a grown up tolerant manner.

Showing bigotry with intolerance towards people who do not share your belief is typical Hun behaviour. Your intolerance is closer to the behaviour of a Hun - the very thing you say you despise.

Sorry, I wasn't looking for a debate. Nothing will change your mind. You can attempt to excuse your position any way you like but the fact remains is that you want the same as these people. Huns

Holding up a tiny sub section of people that voted in the Yes/No referendum in Glasgow (where the majority actually voted Yes) and trying to convince people they are representative of the millions that voted No throughout Scotland is so obviously wrong it is laughable. Not even the majority of died in the wool Yes supporters would believe this is representative.
