Why? Just get a yearly prepaid subscription for about £10 a month.

I spent a week in Scotland for my honeymoon and I have to say it's like a different world compared to England. Apart from being one of the most beautiful places I've been to, the people seems to have a sense of pride. An identity that is miles away from the feeling that English people have themselves. England has lost its pride and identity, well maybe not lost but we feel ashamed to show the sense of pride that the Scottish people are proud of.

The only saving grace about being diabetic is I qualify for a medical exemption certificate, so even now working I don't pay for them. Which is a massive bonus.

Interesting in that one would have thought that the No vote campaigners would have used this data to support their campaign.

and if it doesn't recover, the SNP's manifesto sums are going to need a whole lot of reworking and their ability to deliver on all those promises is going to be in serious doubt if it wasn't already.

They needed reworking anyway. They were torn to shreds before the vote but anyone questioning it was branded a scaremonger.

It was fantasyland economics even when oil was over $100 a barrel.

What's even more frightening is the number of people willing to accept it without question.

Too true. It's the art of the conman - working out what people want to hear or respond to and giving it them.
