Disappointing that Murray pouts late opinion based on his perception of negative 'no' campaign. Bigger picture is not PR savviness surely, moreover the rights and wrongs of independence should/will dictate. hypocritical caveat: hope democracy wins, gut... scotland will regret a yes.

That's entirely wishful thinking. Let's see whether or not in six months' time (regardless of the referendum vote) politics with a capital 'P' is firing up Scottish people...

As an ex-pat Scot married to an English wife now living in New York I came home last night from Madison Square Garden having just watched an 'Eagles' concert,(which was interesting and entertaining) and I was further treated to the BBC coverage of the election details.

I think the whole referendum has shown me how brittle the 'Union' is, but also interesting how the Stock exchange was up 60 points when opened today

Their all making money again- yippee!!!

Well some are!?

Chess and politics?

:)


well i for one am glad (yeah , i gave up with the coverage, happy i did as youngest started kicking me in the head and demanding peppa pig at about 5am)

But the union is irrevocably change whatever the result, Cameron admitted as much. are we going to move to a federal model?


For all Salmond's awfulness thought he was gracious and reconciliatory in defeat, reminded me of McCain's losers speech.

Though did like my mate's comment this morning:


""Alex Salmond called for unity"

Er.........why start now ?

divisive little shit.

At least we won't have to put up with so much of his fat smug toad like visage sweating itself out of the television in future.

Can we arrest him for being a traitor?"

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
