Chopperboy Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 You know in a way the English are now getting payback for their Tory government of the 80s....who treated Scotland with contempt. Its this distrust which is leading a lot of us who were around then to vote for independence....not a few barrels of oil. We don't trust our so called partners not to repeat what happened then and the Bedroom Tax has not helped matters. Add on the threat of student fees and we are appalled at the future gap in the UK between rich and poor which can only get worse with these policies. Thatcher in the 80's just did the biding of the Bilderburg group. They put her in power and when she started asserting herself over Europe they got rid of her - she publicly stated that in Jim Tuckers Spotlight magazine. One of the key policies in the 80's that she did particularly well in was Asset Stripping (AKA privatisation) selling state assets for pennies on the dollar. Its a long term goal of the globalists to leverage out the Western Middle class and leave behind just the mega rich elite and an underclass - the policy dates back to Club of Rome 1968. In my opinion Scotland will have a chance if it gets independence - without it I believe that by 2036 there won't be a British middle class left.

I Like Thai Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 "Scotlands vote is not about Braveheart or kilts or tribal nationalism. Its about democracy""Even more startling, Scotlands independence can be consensual. England and Wales, to their enormous credit, have already accepted Scottish sovereignty, and whatever happens in the referendum there is no going back on that decent and gracious decision. Scotland may or may not become an independent country but it is already and without argument a free country." Let's lead on from there transam.....tell us in your own words why Scots should vote to remain in the union....floor is yours .... OK.. ...I will try...remember these are MY thoughts. After many centuries of fighting, English against English, English against Scots over a HUGE amount of time we came out of it with ALL the factions of our weeeeeeeee Island standing together, moving on. When we did that our weeeeeee Island became a world force, though small it is respected around the globe. If our union has a problem , we fight for it. We don't cower even if the odds were not good. Since the WW2 we have moved on with an NHS that the world cannot beat, a perfect social security that most of the world can't beat. How did we do it, the union did it, thoughts from Scots, English and Welsh, thats how we did it. If King Salmond with his oil "thingy" wants to take you out of the achievement GAINED by the union, well, thats up to you. But remember, our fore fathers fought for what we have. Has now nothing to do with the present government, most of us hate it cos the people did NOT vote for this coalition. There should never be a coalition, there should be a second vote so folk can give their second opinion to really achieve. I have never been in the UK forces, but my family have, I worked with guys that did stuff from all over the union, never a bad word about our union guys, they could do stuff TOGETHER. The world is getting smaller, so why should Scotland want o disenfranchise itself from it's partners now ?. To me it is disrespect to those that stood together for what we have......... alt=thumbsup.gif> Why does Northern Ireland not get a mention as being a member of the Union. England and the English mindset disregards the other members of the Union as being irrelevant when making decisions and this will never change. It is this mindset that has many of the Scottish populace wanting to break away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much doubt it. In fact on a Yes win I reckon everything will start moving out the next day, Scotland having declared independence no longer being a country in the UK, or the EU or NATO. Why hang around? Stop the flow of cash immediately. Cut the losses. Move on. Edited September 13, 2014 by MJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
