Thread Name: BS: scottish independence
Subject: RE: BS: scottish independence
UK government having smelt the coffee, are now resorting to simple blackmail to avert defeat.

If Scotland votes no, we may be "given" new powers, including tax raising powers.

One question if these powers are available and in the interests of all, why are they not in place NOW?

Don't believe the lying bastards, vote NO and Scotland will be crushed, we will be given the same status as Wales, who's public services are being decimated and unemployment runs at rates above the national average.

Young people in Scotland are no longer prepared to be treated as second class citizens by a government which does not represent them.
They still have enough pride in themselves to take responsibility for their own future.
We are a small trading nation with the ability to pay our way, with a bit left over to train our young folks, and provide decent public services......We don't need unregulated immigration, we don't want to rule the world, or be part of global corporatism.

Salmond is a great leader who has performed wonders in influencing public opinion, and conducting the Scottish Government.
IF we win the vote it will be a testament to the guts of the Scottish people.....and the man himself!
