There's an old saying "Better the devil you know than the devil you don't."
I'll take the one I don't know,he can't be any worse.

There's rumour going around that Jimi's really an English Nationalist...

Yes, he can - you are making a decision without basing it on factual information, just hope.....
Or are you and ABE?

Hugh,you often present a viable case for BT,I admire you for it even though I don't always agree with you.
In a way,you are correct,it is based on hope,lots of it,but if you don't have hope you have nothing.

Thing is he can't actually answer with a factually based answer just a general one that sounds like it came straight from Salmond himself.

Fair share of what exactly?
What makes you say that they aren't giving a damn?

Yes you'd have thought Jimi would have by now assembled a plethora of well reasoned and coherent arguments to support the Yes vote. Instead his rationale (if you can call it that) boils down to "better the devil you don't know"...

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
Exactly, I also found it totally laughable that he used that phrase but actually wants a yes vote.
To me that phrase is better suited to a no voter.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
If the Scots do vote for independence than a few years down the line it all goes tits-up I wonder who will pick the bill up and sort the mess out!
