And now the Better Together camp are complaining of being bullied / shouted down.

"As a new poll showed a growth in support for independence, the head of the Better Together campaign accused nationalists of being "consistently negative" about supporters of the UK."

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

Before anyone else links to that poll, can we please get clear that it was:

1. Commissioned by Wings Over Scotland, a fairly extreme Separatist website;
2. It employed the same strategy of leading, loaded questions as previous Panelbase polls;
3. Panelbase's open recruitment of volunteer poll subjects was suspended recently because of a large number of nationalists signing up to it, thereby threatening to skew its results.

Panelbase has consistently shown a higher support for Yes than other polls and is, coincidentally, the Nats' polling organ of choice.

Apologies for not stripping out the poll link Chris - and thanks for not shooting the messenger.

I wasn't trying to plug the poll or its provenance (or otherwise) but it's worthy of note that similar accusations of bias have been levelled by the pro independence side also.

I was merely highlighting the fact that the Better Together campaign, poll results aside, appear a bit rattled and are complaining of being shouted down.

Clearly nerves are frayed on both sides.

What??

Even that response makes no sense at all. Just like most of Salmond responses! When you can't find a proper answer its best to say nothing at all.

More apparent bullying, this time from the former head of NATO.
Sturgeon being a muppet again.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

TBH The Nato guy does seem to be overdoing it...

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

So the secretary general of NATO is "crass and offensive" and the Presidents of the European Commission and the European Council are "preposterous". And the SNP have serious ambitions to run an actual government, handling actual diplomatic relations?

Intemperate comments like these (and not forgetting the Lockerbie Bomber fiasco), show that when it comes to anything outside of the (thankfully) limited sphere of their devolved executive powers, the Nats are rank amateurs. It is frightening to think there are people in Scotland actively pushing to bring this about.

Obviously,many on here do not have a Scooby as tae whom George Robertson is,I've known him since he started his political career in Hamilton,he's a ****,end of.....

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

Who he is personally is entirely besides the point, which is exactly the problem the Nats are having whenever they encounter proper grown up governmental affairs. They don't seem to realise that you have to deal with the office, whoever occupies it and whatever their views and opinions are. As a bunch of jumped-up county councillors with no career path to actual government, the SNP is not best placed to understand this.

Re: Will Scotland Leave the UK?
 

The SNP don't have any problems.
