If you look back a few stories, you will fin...Hmmm. If you look back a few stories, you will find that at one point I asked if anyone had seen you... so, yes. We did.<br /><br />And I completely agree with your summation of the situation vis-a-vis a no vote.<br /><br />Even a narrow margin (given the fact that Westminister doesn't give a stuff about Scotland) will be disastrous.<br /><br />Labour will assume that its vote is secure because "we are the only way to beat the Tories"... and the Tories will wash their hands of the place, except of course to store their evil weapons and extract our oil. We will in either case be denied the oil bonanza that awaits us in the Clyde because of the MoD's desire to wave Britain's willie (if you'll pardon the crudity).<br /><br />I suppose I should mention the Liberals. So there. I mentioned them.<br /><br />The future may not be to actually vote UKIP, but it will certainly be to keep UKIP potential voters on side. No one would pretend that the EU wants Britain to leave, although heaven knows some of the leaders probably wish that our prime minister would...erm... go. (Who could blame them?)<br /><br />I see Frau Merkel is already trying to appease Cameron after his humiliating defeat last week, where the only ally he could call upon was a right wing nut job in Hungary, as near to a dictator as you can be and still stay in the EU).<br /><br />No one wants anyone to leave the EU, much less a contributor like the UK, so Merkel and even Hollande, who must really dislike the Uk, will work to keep the UK in. Of course Cameron and Milly know it would cost millions of jobs if it left.<br /><br />So the Ukip threat will continue, and the appeasement of Ukip factions in Labour and the Tories will have to be continue apace.<br /><br />Scotland will not be immune from the results of that.<br /><br />Britain, in my view, despite its many attributes, has never been a great place to live if you weren't rich or titled. It's become more and more frightening and more and more dangerous.<br /><br />I don't want to live in a frightening and dangerous country.<br /><br /><br />Anyway... where the hell were you?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-39527170726422130742014-07-03T11:56:24.368+01:002014-07-03T11:56:24.368+01:00Stop the wind-up Niko - Labour is like the death t...Stop the wind-up Niko - Labour is like the death throes of a old buffalo who makes one plaintinve cry before being eaten by the carrion seekers of the Tory/UKIP coalition. A No vote will be taken by Labour and Tories as a mandate to run rough-shod over Scotland with the appeasement of UKIP supporters taking them in an even further- right direction. Anyone who cannot grasp that stark reality is extremely naive, gullible, blinkered or brain-washed.<br /><br />Incidentally, did you miss me?John Brownliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248027418059598116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-25032649219990151962014-07-03T11:33:33.242+01:002014-07-03T11:33:33.242+01:00Scot goes Pop has analysed the results of the Youg...Scot goes Pop has analysed the results of the Yougov Poll and questioned the methodology.<br /><br />Who knows.<br /><br />I just wonder if the No campaign were winning so handsomely as that poll seems to indicate, why would they be running around desperately offering Federalism, or trying to associate independence with some foul brand of blood and soil nationalism.<br /><br />Countries can be independent with that and they know it. It's a shame they feel that that is their best bet for making people vote No.<br /><br />If you vote yes, it will be like Nazi Germany.<br /><br />What to me is scary is the 60% of cuts that are still to come; the knowledge that the cancer services (already near the bottom of the EU tables) and end of life services, are out to tender in England, and that our future funding under the present regime is based upon what England wants to spend...ie as little as possible.<br /><br />That is much more realistic and much more frightening.<br /><br />When you were young Niko, Labour was a decent party of the working man. They relished having Dennis Skinner among their ranks, along with people like Dennis Canavan.<br /><br />Poor old Skinner. After a lifetime of service, Ed has banned him.<br /><br />Shame.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-84352706386523584752014-07-03T09:54:53.060+01:002014-07-03T09:54:53.060+01:00Now remind me again just how close YouGov got to t...Now remind me again just how close YouGov got to the 2011 Holyrood result?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2092475090824666694.post-88459471084274802192014-07-02T23:04:24.592+01:002014-07-02T23:04:24.592+01:00YouGov are the outliers Niko.
