xbl Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Should we expect anything else? What were the findings again btw? I'm glad you asked! http://wingsoverscotland.com/uninteresting-news-ignored/#more-35477 UPPER GRAPH – JANUARY 2013 Independence: 23% “Devolution” (including both the status quo and undefined extra powers): 61% No Scottish Parliament: 11% LOWER GRAPH – JUNE 2013 Independence: 35% “Devo max” (everything devolved except defence and foreign affairs): 32% Status quo: 24% No Scottish Parliament: 6% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Day Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Before I read the above, I'd just like to say that it's currently hotter in Edinburgh than it is in Belfast, Cardiff, London and Manchester. Obviously, the BBC state otherwise on their map, though: http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/ Too wee, too poor and too stupid to have better weather than elsewhere in the UK.

No doubt Gardham will be apoplectic when he comes back in again on Monday morning, but f**k him anyway! The renewables CO2 figures were ridiculously good too. The agenda is being set (and spun) by the unionist side. Knowledge is power as they say, but if we can't get the knowledge out there we are fucked.

The renewables CO2 figures were ridiculously good too. As I posted on the previous page, our 'national broadcaster' would have you think they were an utter disaster. The BBC are utter fucking c**ts.

Mr.Bojangles Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 "Only ONE IN FIVE Scots backs irreversible separation from Mother Britannia, according to a recent poll which we will not be reproducing in full." - every paper, Monday I was thinking it would include "56% of Scots say no to independence!" somewhere.

ForzaDundee Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Around 400 protesters attended today’s rally at the Scottish Tories conference in Stirling, double the attendance of Prime Minister David Cameron's keynote speech to conference on Friday.

D-Day Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 The English have a 'deep love' for Scotland being in the UK, Cameron says as he vows to defeat independence with his 'head, heart, body and soul' - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2337769/The-English-deep-love-Scotland-UK-Cameron-says-vows-defeat-independence-head-heart-body-soul.html ...The first page of comments: For heavens sake.

Without fail all the people I know along with muself cant wait to be free of the pethetic whining ingrates.

DeeGas Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Tis true some English see the Independence referendum,Salmond and the SNPs blah blah as apparent 'eternal' moaning.

Sanny's army Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 http://newsnetscotland.com/index.php/scottish-politics/7520-scotland-by-far-the-most-pro-eu-part-of-uk Pleasing, very pleasing. Extremely pleasing indeed, Scotland is different. It also (yet again) confirms that all those (weirdly, predominantly St. Mirren) folk who said that the SNP should adopt an "out of Europe" policy are flat out wrong. You missed the part at the bottom where it says the numbers are from a small sample and therefore not statistically relevant. Do you know what size of sample is acceptable for statistical relevance? 30. Only 30. So, less than 30 people answered a question and therefore it supports independence? Can't possibly see any fault in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trend is clearly downward. "The trend is clearly downwards"? You're going to have to explain that. Also, the link explains the difference. And of course the samples are different. They were taken at different times! So why do you think the papers are having seemingly a news blackout on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
