And your proof is ........... or are you attempting to once again state that the Scots hate the English ?
If so I ain't even gonna bother answering as I feel there is nothing to answer and it's boring many of us now ... keep bleating if u want about it ... I ain't listening
Another "toys out the pram" moment from the pro-indy bunch on here.
The agenda seems to be "let's have a debate as long as it's on our terms".
Double standards, misinformation, a sinister attempt to manipulate the vulnerable, and repeated attempts to discredit and belittle posters who regularly dismantle the nonsense of scottish independence, appear to be the order of the day. (AGAIN)!
Today's pro-indy propaganda takers the form of several ridiculous contributions from a poster who does not even intend to live in the country who's economy and level of services she seeks to destroy.
This thread is now a complete joke, and any Scot who truly loves his/her country must cringe at the content and squirm at the attempts of so called countrymen to divide each other and alienate ourselves from our colleagues in rUK.
100% disgrace.0 -
Not toys out the pram no ... just not playing people like yourselves stupid game anymore ... it's been proven to death yessers don't hate England ... there's no need to prove it again ... so I ain't even taking part in the mind games ... carry on howling at the moon if it pleases you ... I ain't listening
You are such a bitter person Molly ... it must be a horrible place living in your head ... I pity you0 -

Was it yourself that suggested that I wasn't up to the "political debate" that occurs on this thread; I can't remember?
If it was, i'll try to aspire to the standard you provide above. :rotfl:0 -

I'm not sure where this type of vitriolic attack has come from but I find it offensive and uncalled for.
Is this the type of Scotland you hope to achieve, (and then leave), one where people who disagree with your point of view are abused like this?
I think the neutrals who read this thread will know where to direcy their pity.
ps Might be an idea to get any future post approved by party HQ; you're messing up the PR war0 -

Touched a nerve it appears. Rather sensitive today. As who said anybody hates anybody else. Play hard ball and you can only expect other peoples attitudes to correspondingly change. Was all that I was going to make reference too.0 -
No ...not sensitive ... just bored ... how many times do you have to be shown yessers don't hate the English ... how many times do you have to be told independence is nothing to do with England?
It's boring ... it doesn't move the discussion forward ... it keeps it in a short ever decreasing loop
But knock yourself out if u want ... I won't join you ... life is too short to go over the same ground0 -

It comes from all your posts Molly not just the one before this one ... which party exactly is my HQ attached to ?0 -

But knick yourself out if u want ... I won't join you ... life is too short to go over the same ground
I've already proved there's a link between the two. It was there for all to see, bare naked truth. Multiple studies by sociology researchers.
To now say that there is no link would be false.0 -
And it goes both ways tricky0

For some people it is. (As you well know).
For other people it's about a percieved disadvantage to the rest of the UK despite the HUGE subsidy we get, an irrational belief that we are somehow different in nature and values from people who stand on different pieces of land within the UK, (and indeed the world), and the completely ridiculous assertion that Scotland could maintain the type of economy that could sustain even the most basic of services for it's people.
Hope that "moves the discussion forward".0
