Whatever his excuses will be it certainly won't be because the Scottish voters don't want something fixed that isn't broke

You're not expecting him to accept a defeat with grace and magnanimity then? :eeek:

I only hope the NO vote is a significant enough majority to send the Nats off under a rock for a significant length of time. A slim victory will just leave them agitating for a rerun.

They haven't done a bad job being in charge of the Scottish parliament where they have just enough power not to be able to knacker things too badly so I wouldn't mind them as a suitable replacement for labour up here.

What's becoming very clear is the SNP has no plan B they were so deluded they would get their own way in all negotiations that no alternative was prepared or planned so all they can do when plan A is torn apart by the real world and how it works in reality is be petulant. Right now neither the SNP or Scotland are looking good.

The EU dose not understand what a no vote is, which is the same for that idiot Salmond. He will keep going at it until he gets a yes vote.

Maybe they'll have to change the question to get him to see sense. How about:

"Do you want to remain part of the UK and reject Alec Salmond's plans for an independent Scotland? Yes or No"

Will the conspiracy against those poor Scots ever end? :(

The number of programmes broadcast by the BBC which contain the word 'British' or 'Britain' in the title has increased twentyfold since the SNP came to power at Holyrood.

The emergence of the figures will fuel speculation that the broadcaster has been trying to subliminally promote the idea of 'Britishness' in the run-up to the independence referendum.
Yet more bullying from the Tory-led, London-based, anti-Scottish media. Yet it doesn't even stop there. Guess what the so-called 'impartial' state (i.e Westminster) broadcaster did then:

Quote:

One show, the Great British Bake Off, makes prominent use of the Union Flag along with red white and blue imagery.
Unbelievable.

Also I was so angry at this propaganda I went and looked at what the BBC stands for, it's so obvious I can't believe we didn't notice it before. It's the BRITISH Broadcasting Company!

Sickening.

Don't forget the anti-SNP Ryvita Damien. "It doesn't stop with TV. I saw a packet of Ryvita with a Union Flag motif grinning out of the packaging" I hope that comment is genuine I really do. The picture below shows just how despicable Ryvita are...

It all smacks of a relationship whereby one partner is accusing the other of holding the them back..But what we are holding Scotland back from I'm not entirely sure.

Just exactly what do they expect to get from independence? What vision do they actually have of a future Scotland? How much richer will the average Scot be?
