Salmond v Cameron

[1995_Oh_My_Sides_]

what sort of is Darling ffs, Salmond will debate him once he knows Cameron cant be persuaded to stand up like a man

I don't think he hand picked that as a surname, Jimmy.

[stewarty27]

So Cameron takes part in a debate and he's accused of being a snooty Tory telling us all what to do.

Or he doesn't take part in a debate and he's a bottle merchant.

Salmond really really needs Cameron to debate with him cos win lose or draw he can paint him as the typical English Old Etonian type. He is running out of ideas and is scraping the bottom of the barrel.

IMHO Cameron has no need to debate with Salmond, why should he, it's only Scots that are voting isn't it? If there is to be a debate, it should be the Yes v No campaigns, so it should be Alistair Darling. Oh, but Salmond has already bottled out of a debate with Darling.

Absolute Cr*p Cameron as the PM of the UK has a duty to defend his Union irispective if he is a snooty tory or not !!! The fact your happy to be ruled by a "snooty tory is another matter.
He persists in using the UK Government to undermine the case for Scottish Independence, then tries to c

The yews campaign is rapidly running out of tricks. Short of putting Braveheart on in every Scottish cinema and TV channel they're struggling for a next move. Prepare for toe curling nine months of patriotic Brigadoon type hype

Cameron has Salmond by the baws.

Salmond just keeps going on about it so much that it's pretty obvious that it's getting up his nose. It's all pretty desperate stuff from Salmond

Thanks for your response Stewarty but my feeling ( which admittedly, I didn't make clear) is that Cameron and his ilk couldnae give a shyte if Scotland was independent. Sure they like the idea of colonies and an era when half the world was pink (that's a reference to early twentieth century maps where pink denoted the British Empire as I'm sure you're aware) but as a people, they'd be happy to get rid of us. In that sense, I don't feel he's the man for the debate whereas a Gordon Brown (for all his faults)is a more apposite opponent - i.e someone who genuinely believes in the Union. To be honest I don't think Cameron would give a feck if the UK north of Watford was lopped off and therefore isn't an ideal candidate to present the "no" argument. I would add to that that I believe it's fundamentally incorrect to have someone who is disenfranchised to provide the argument

Personally I would like to see a debate between the two..

But Cameron did say he would fight tooth and nail to keep the union on a number of occasions..it would be good to see him debate the matter..
If it happens it happens..I think debates are good to have about anything..

Well I'm gan debate we the wife summing aboot Danny and gersforme mentioning X hamster..

Televised political debates are just another American invention to dumb down politics and should be s***ned at every opportunity.

Someone may be a great MP and representative for their constituents but totally hopeless in a live, televised debate.

That's a good statement Bert..
