Oh btw some more fantastic news for us up here in Bonnie Scotland.
So you say they do nothing for Scotland and when it's pointed out that they do you write it off as a 'token gesture'?

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

Mr Pharmacist,do they sell spectacles in your shop?
Is the 'we' your 'we' or a politician,s 'we' we need tae know.

We are letting them decide as they see fit. Well the politicians are, everyone here had no say in the matter. And there's a lot of Scots on here that face a massive decision about their future, but it's a decision that affects us all in the end.
Oh btw,I wonder which way the wind is blowing today.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

National newspapers in "we have different front pages for our English and Scottish editions" shocker ....

Seriously Jimi, do you not have a clue about anything that goes on outside your little Nat bubble?

Incidentally, the splash in the English edition is about people not realising how much their income will drop when they retire and the fact that too few people have a private pension.

The splash in the Scottish edition is Gordon Brown's speech on the stability of the state pension being questionable if we are blind and stupid enough to vote for separation in September.

Two stories that do not contradict each other in any way, shape or form and just happen to be on the same broad subject.

But seeing as you would have to read a website other than Wings Over Scotland to know any of this, I'm not surprised at how you must have wet your pants with glee when you saw that Jpeg.

So that would be the same token gesture they do for the rest of the country then as well??

http://www.cbi.org.uk/about-the-cbi/...dlands/events/
http://www.cbi.org.uk/about-the-cbi/...ngland/events/

In fact looks like more of these 'token gestures' than most other areas.

Maybe you should realise that you can't make statements like these and not expect to be called on them.

So following proof we gone from nothing to 'token gesture', whats then next step in back pedaling after showing is more than a token gesture?

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

I thought the lack of rational argument and inability to answer a simple question rang a bell... I reckon Jimi is Alan Fry.

No way, Alan Fry's debating was far better than Jimi's

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

I have no need for glasses jimi. If I did they wouldn't be tinted for a start. When it comes to the reason you're able to yote on your future, what part of "We are letting them decide as they see fit. Well the politicians are, everyone here had no say in the matter" are you struggling with? It seems you've still not correctly read all of what I posted, or supplied me with some of the examples (Just one would do) that have made me a "typical arrogant Little Englander". Please keep looking. Is this part "And there's a lot of Scots on here that face a massive decision about their future, but it's a decision that affects us all in the end" not correct either? Or is it only you that's affected by whatever the result is? If it is just you, then it's easy to see who's actually a "Typical arrogant little" something or other is it not? I realise you don't like questions that challenge you, or actually answering them, but what do you expect when you come flying in with your attitude towards anyone, or anything, that challenges your one sided view on everything.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?

Ok i would have thought by now most people on here understood Jimi is nothing more then a wind up merchant and would stop respnding to him. By his own admission he is english so as popular with the scot nats as the rest of the english no matter how hard he tries to be scots or talk and write, let him blustter and blow and lets concentrate on the serious side of this, something Jimi isn't vaguely familiar with.

If truth be told,Cornwall isn't really a part of Englandshire now,is it.
After all,like Scotland,it has suffered from being cut off from all things Lahndan,likewise many parts of Devon,seems tae me as if Lahndan is saying 'Stuff you for fighting against us back in the middle ages.'
If you only had been nice and civilized back then,maybe you would have gained more respect but no,you wanted tae rape,plunder and kill,just like the Empire.
Karma is coming.

You must have an enormous fish on one shoulder, to balance the chip on the other one....

No one gives a toss what happened in the Middle Ages - grow up, move on....

10 resignations out of a membership of about 24,000. Still, you take your friends wherever you can I suppose.

By the way, you do realise that nine of those 10 have cited their commitment to *impartiality* as their reason for resigning? Didn't you? And the other one is a chain of care homes owned by a prominent separatist. So no surprises there.
