    It all seems so stupid it makes me want to give up.
    But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid ?

    I can certainly see a wee bit of love between Ed & Nicola here :-)

    For anyone in need of a giggle.

    Can't say I blame them.

    Debating economic reality with a Scottish Nationalist is like debating evolutionary biology with a Christian Fundamentalist.

    Pointless.

    It's rather like discussing debt with Mr Micawber, "Something will come along".

    Indeed....

    Although in the case of Scotland, 'something' turns out to be just more debt....

    Neither Ed nor Dave are fit to lick Nicola's high heels. :naughty:

    Now try to get those images out of your mind.:D

    I absolutely agree, I did not for one minute expect everyone to hold similar views to the Scots. It was the naked, ugly self interest. I've never seen anything like it.

    For the first time I despaired for the union and I fought tooth and nail through the referendum to preserve it.

    I think you would be happier without us.

    a very racist view

    but I suppose one isn't entirely surprised given the 'anyone but the English ' culture and the 'Flower of Scotland' and the nationalism

    sad though

    time to separate and preserve the tolerate attitude in the greater part of the UK.

    Ah no, we were talking realities of FTPA for the last two pages. Something you seem to be completely unaware of. But as you were. It'll be all the more of a wake up call for you if the Tories don't get in, even if they are the largest party.

    I hate bursting bubbles.
