As it stands the ridiculous assertions that everyone will bend over backwards to give iScotland everything it wants and more with nothing in return shows just how the yes campaign is all about getting the result regardless of the ramifications.

Are there no risks by voting No? The political landscape will change either way.
Without smearing anybody - the NO campaign is also blindly claiming that everything will be OK with an undefined Devo-max. Have you seen any figures for this? The ridiculous assertions of the Yes campaign are matched by the condescending negativity of BT.
