That, ironically, actually appears to be quite an effective pro "yes" campaign poster.

It reminds me of the parody Labour posters that The Guardian did for April Fool's Day. I think Labour should have used them myself.

The CWU has decided to bully the SNP now.

Purely coincidental, I'm sure.

Anyway, stay well sir. All the best to you & yours.
Mr Angry,may I ask if you have ever read "The Battle of Britain," if so,you'd be forgiven for thinking England won it.
Before the Little Englander brigade get on their high horses again,go read it.

Still things might have.changed in the twenty years since he left tae country.
Since 1986,there's been 15 Celtic fans murdered here in Scotland,2 Rangers fans,I wonder how bitter the Rangers fans are,maybe it stems from being anti Catholic.

That's complete and utter nonsense. And also quite dangerous lies as well.

It also has precisely nothing to do with the debate on Scottish independence.

To be fair, it's in line with his previous postings - biased, poisonous propaganda....

Very true.

In other news the first minister will be giving a speech in Bruges today telling the EU why they should welcome iScotland with open arms and ignore their own rules and protocols.

Maybe at the same time he will explain why he's gone from terming Sterling as a "millstone round out necks" to being adamant that Scotland will keep it in the event of a yes vote.

Does article 48 not allow them to join?

Probably something to do with the fact that, in keeping with the Memorandum, everything is up for negotiation once the referendum outcome is known.

They have suggested that article 48 would be suitable and glossed over the fact all other countries, including some with independence hungry regions, would have to agree to this. All within an 18 month timetable whilst negotiating everything else.

Crucially the legal advice that actually exists outside the imaginations of the SNP is mixed but comes down on the side of 'New country, new member'

Lawyers, including a former European Court judge, have clashed over what Scotland's EU status might be in the event of independence.

Three of the four argued that Scotland would have to apply for EU membership as a separate state.

Mod edit - Derek : As I said this has nothing to do with the Scottish Independence debate, if you want to post about football there are several threads dedicated to that elsewhere.

You have clearly missed the rubbish I've had tae put up with,including from yourself,deal with it.!!!

Just read the gut wrenching story from The Daily Fail which had a headline...The Lucky Dip lottery ticket that could wreck the Union.

What this stupid idiotic article said about the Weirs lottery win and their donation towards the SNP was nothing other than a damned disgrace.
Short memories,because how many Tory toffs have donated tae that mob over the years,nae wonder its losing thousands of readers daily.
