Edit: In light of a recent post it seems inappropriate to keep this post as it was.

With all of these things that are supposedly bad for Scotland, independence support has not increased, it has in fact decreased from June 2016, "but it's the same level as in 2014!", not like that helps you, "but Alex started lower, this time Nicola will take us over the line!", not with lies, the Scots are waking up to the BS. The SNP will be out of power across the country soon enough.

Ha ha ha.. :rotfl:

Scots aren't waking up to anything. It's just a comfort thing you keep telling yourself. The SNP know exactly where things stand at the moment given their own private polling and their recent Scotland wide consultation exercise.

It's three years to the next general election, four years until the next Scottish general election and only two years until the UK is out of the EU. So am afraid you're stuck with them for a good few years yet and definitely during ALL of the Brexit stuff to come.

It's No voters that are waking up to lies.

The Scottish, N Irish and Welsh were asking to be consulted. Not veto the whole thing, Sewel comes into contention because so many EU laws are also written into devolved statue books.

If I was under any delusions I would've voted No in 2014 under the impression that the Vow, the Smith Commission and the new Scotland Act resulting from it all meant something. As well as the fact that voting No meant staying in the EU. Boy did some of those Scots get a huge wake up call today.

As it was I personally didn't believe a word of it at the time. So voted accordingly.

take us through the Vow showing how the promises have been broken.
Personally I think it was a disgrace as it promised things to scotland without asking the people of wales. NI or england including english money: but that's a different story and I wouldn't expect you to refuse the usual unfair benefits

Just leave this here for Shakey to digest re: Salmond and Cherry-picker-of-data.

Here's some more lies and deceit debunked regarding the NHS which we were talking about recently:

https://whytepaper.wordpress.com/2017/01/08/data-without-information-now-with-data/

The lies are everywhere in the indy brigade, the sheer scale and frequency of it makes the Remain campaigns claims of financial armageddon and military conflict look pathetically tame by comparison.

This is why the cause will always lose. What sort of person do you have to be to believe this tripe?

I read it a few days ago when Fraser posted it. The comments were far more interesting than the blog piece.

No 1 and No 2 of the Scotland Act 2016. And pretty much everything else in it.

I thought the Vow was a disgrace too. Was a blatant panic move in response to one solitary poll.

the vow doesn't seem to promise anything specific about No1 &2 of the scotland act

Otherwise you are a bit vague

I think Theresa May has consulted far more with the devolved assemblies than Nicola has with the 38% of Scots who voted to leave.

Well, how's Theresa doing with that 48% who voted to remain ? Your point here is nonsense on stilts. :shhh:
