Looking for your views on Scottish Independence.
I praise the SNP for giving the Scottish people the right to vote on this, all the unionist parties refused this democratic right when they had the balance of power.
I fully support Scottish Inpependence and hope that Scotland becomes an Indpendent nation once again in 2014.
Please take part in the poll as well (make sure to tick the correct section).

That is as far back as we can trace our heritage and none of us are in favour of AS. This is far too small an island to put up with fat little despots who want to destroy the education system in Scotland. Always remember, anyone who hates education, wants to destroy a nation. This is what the SNP have done. Meanwhile Alex has arranged for his Castle in Edinburgh to be renovated in readiness for his rule. Get real.0

His original post really annoys me and I have no idea why it is posted on MSE. Why am I living across the border with idiots like him?0

It seems like a great idea to me, at least we'll be able to give them the RBS debt back as a parting gift. But why anyone would think adopting the crumbling euro right now is a good thing is beyond me.Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0

I agree. Many of us are related in our island (I know I am) and all our parents defended our country, so I for one will not put up with rubbish like that. It does annoy me Tom.0

If you dig a little deeper when it comes to the banks you will find that as RBS traded in the FTSE in London they traded under English law so therfore England is responsible for 90% of the debt.
Just because it has Scotland in the name means nothing.Vote YES to Scottish Independence in 20140 -

Oh, and I'm afraid you get idiots everywhere!
Why is it when you ask a question on a contentious issue (other thread not this one) you get abuse for it?
Not every one has the same view, that would appear to go for nothing.Vote YES to Scottish Independence in 20140 -
I doubt your IQ could understand so I won't bother to explain. It would take at least two paragraphs and that is a long time for reading.0
