    ermmm I'm anti bombing in Iraq as well ? kinda Anti bombing all together really,

    Nah Scotland is very anti fracking, I think I understand where your issues are, you seem to think Scotland should think and behave the way you expect it to, it wont do that, it wont even do it the way the people of Scotland want it to so you have no chance...

    Once again though people like yourself show great disrespect to things and people you dont understand ... I feel pity for you in weird way

    My issues are that Scotland could not afford to become independent and because of the angles the SNP were using at the time to garner support (basically telling a load of lies) it wasn't possible for realists to tell the scots the truth because all it did was increase the sales of braveheart.

    I don't like offending people but if the tables were turned, and it was England with only 5 million inhabitants and a small GDP of around 100 billion thinking of breaking away from Scotland with a gdp of over a trillion, i'd certainly be listening to realists and not reading about st george slaying a dragon :D

    I found the indyref brought out a horrible bigotry in scots. (the 40 or so % that wanted independence that is)

    But it is all by the by now, scotland voted to stay in the uk and all the further talk of independence is starting to sound like some sort of evangelical religion :rotfl:

    Everyone got the predictions wrong.

    Its the summer recess. MP's are on 'holiday' and fee to do what they wish.

    Granted most people got the GE prediction wrong. SNP got both the Referendum and GE wrong. SNP are a poisonous selfish narrow minded insular little party . So much so that Milliband made it clear he wasn't going near them with a barge pole.

    Full of hot air, and happy to jump on any grievance or cause they feel is populist. And are now being seen as such across the UK and the wider world. Only SNP voters in their insular little bubble don't see this.

    The article I read said SNP would start their new strategy when they returned from the summer recess?

    It still stuns me how much power the SNP have, there's a lot of frothing at the mouths accompanying the whole SNP rhetoric ... I would've thought by now their power would've diminished ... But the hatred for them on here proves me wrong ... So many people must be terrified of the Scots

    That makes me laugh I must say :)

    The power to have people obsess over them at least :)

    This thread has been going round the houses for months ...and some people on here really despise the SNP .... Yet they can't stop discussing them ...

    It's all interesting stuff
