The behaviour of Yes supporters on here has been absolutely shameful.
Some of the posts over the last couple of weeks have been beyond disgrace. The lies, the scaremongering... the horrendous bias and campaign of negativity and fear.
The good thing for Scotland as a wider consideration is that thus cesspit of a sub forum is not at all representative of the wider debate.
The disgusting posts from Yes supporters on here should not reflect on the main Yes campaign which has i think been largely good and well meaning.
After the No vote I'd like to think many if the shrill disgraces on here will feel ashamed of themselves though perhaps not.
In a crowd like situation as the Yes circle jerk on here is it encourages this sort of descent into stupidity.
Wibble.

There already is - it's called the SNP.
Centre right economically & centre left socially broadly speaking, not a bad combination imo.

I hope you have read the comments, the troll is hilarious.

simple though the concept is, i doubt if he will see it.Why doesn't Scotland's economy stack up when compared to the UKs ?
We'll either have a CU or no debt. Simples

In what way?I know you do. That much is obvious given you expect Yes to prevail in the independence referendum. Then again, that's probably more along the lines of delusion rather than confidence.
At the end of the day, most voters will cast their vote based on how they think it will effect them financially. And the economic argument stinks. Fact!

Family butchers are miles better than the supermarkets, they muck in and multi task too!
Ps would it be possible to be any further off topic?

Best me to it, there is nothing wrong with shopping in lidl, similar & often better quality than the big 4, cheaper prices, more commitment to local produce, staff that muck in & multitask, &, looking at the job adverts in their shops, they seem to pay half decent money as well.The fucks wrong with shopping in Lidl?

Ashcroft Poll Latest:
LAB 38, CON 31, LIB 11, UKIP 15
Electoral Calculus Projection: Labour majority of 88
That's considerably more comfortable a win than Tony Blair's 3rd term. Yet we're told we're going to get a Tory government? Lol.
How do these numbers compare to the same point in the electoral cycle in previous elections?

Almost identical, within 1%.Without don't knows that's 60.7% No 39.3% Yes.
What were the figures for the last equivalent poll?

Dodgy maths? It would surely be dodgy arithmetic, (assuming the arithmetic was actually dodgy)? Thought you were a maths student?Hmm dodgy maths, or full on propaganda?
BTW I am not suggesting that the canvass results were scientific, far from it.

The Scottish people have nobody to blame but the Scottish National Party for Thatcher. Kind of ironic, isn't it? Or is it hypocritical? Ach, never mind.
Yeah, I remember that. It's a fairly logical reason that those with more to lose are less likely to take a risk. I don't know why anyone would argue against that. It's obvious!, but it doesn't fit in with the Yes agenda so argue against it they will! lol.
Could you explain how you've come to that conclusion?..
The Business for Scotland website is a good place to start, totally pro-indy but, well researched & cited articles imo.

Because the evidence that I have seen, & believe me I have done a lot of reading on the subject, strongly suggests that Scotland will be more successful economically as an independent country.Why is that?

Agreed.
"Not with my money, though", is what the doubters say.
Your comment, and please don't take this the wrong way, is typical of what people say when they have nothing to lose anyway. Its easy to gamble when 100% of zero is still zero.
That's why the No vote is so heavily backed by people with a few quid. Mortgages, pensions, savings, businesses etc. People don't just roll the dice when it can heavily effect those sort of things.
I have all of these things, my opinion is that there is a greater risk to them from voting no than yes.

Talking of polls and debates, a mock referendum was held in Lews Castle College a couple of weeks back. Not a lot took part, with the result being 49 people voting Yes and 40 voting No. One person spoiled their ballot.
Who the f**k spoils their ballot in a mock referendum?
Dee-till-eh-Deh?

Not really, about 16% - in the range that the BPC pollsters all see, except TNS, who typically see DKs in the 30% range.
I make the don't knows 38%?

What is there to gain from doctored figures exactly?
Nothing to gain but the don't know numbers are really high? I am not from Glasgow so don't know what Castlemilk is like - would demographics have anything to do with the number of don't knows?

That's why I :lol:'d when I saw the original sarcastic response - WoS is as impartial as BT.
It doesn't claim to be impartial, quite the opposite in fact. That doesn't necessarily make it less credible though.

I have proof that it is not a credible source of information. Its parsing of the "Tarff Advertiser" is particularly fucked up.

Wings Over Scotland is the work of a very strange and twisted individual. Some of its output is interesting and gives an alternative perspective on things, but it certainly can't be considered a credible source given the amount of absolute shite that comes out of it.
Play the ball not the man, can you give me some examples of absolute shite please? BTW I am not saying there isn't any shite at all on the site just that I find the vast majority of it credible, (an awful lot more credible than the MSM generally).

That wings isn't a credible source of information.

OK, give me some proof then please, be very specific.
