Saor Alba Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 It's a shame that humans actually have to argue about vile weaponry like nuclear bombs. How about just getting them all to f**k full stop? Because the owners/controllers, stock/share-holders and employees of the Military Industrial Complex make Trillions of $s between them through building, selling and maintaining them.

DeeGas Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Not through choice, no one chooses where they are born. But I will agree that there are much worse places than these little Isles that one could be born. Whatever relevance you believe the pish in your posts has upon Scotland's coming referendum vote to rid itself of corrupt Westminster (London) governments only you know, I don't want to know. It's not about how much relevance you,me or any of us think our posts make to the referendum. It never crossed my mind how self important you think yourself eg,although it has now. We are all entitled to our say (whatever that is!) and of course we can all choose who we listen to. Good luck. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Salmond gives talk to workers at the Nigg Renewables manufacturing yard, I think it could be a landmark speech in the Independence debate. Great video. Cheers for posting. Alex Salmond really is fucking excellent. Cool name. I am fascinated by physics and I believe that nuclear power can be useful to humanity, particularly in fields like space exploration. However, nuclear weapons of mass destruction are truly harrowing.

Trussells Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Looks like Alex Salmond made a big impression on the likable Phil Mickelson http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/5009151/Phil-Mickelson-gives-his-swing-vote-to-Salmond.html This week Lefty partnered First Minister Alex Salmond in the pro-am at Castle Stuart prior to the first round of the Scottish Open. And he was pretty impressed by Wee Eck’s game. Mickleson admitted: “What’s cool is that, as a politician, he’s an excellent golfer. “He knows how to swing, he’s got good clubhead speed and a good touch around the greens. “You can tell that he’s played a lot of golf over the years and I always have respect for that.” Mickelson revealed that the pair also talked politics ahead of next year’s independence referendum. The American, 43, said: “We had a great conversation throughout the day, He’s got an outgoing personality and he’s easy to be around. “We had a great chat about golf and about politics — and I loved hearing his thoughts.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trussells Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Picking up on something the FM said. He's suggesting the returns from north sea oil will be nearer 20 billion not the 13 billion forecast. 7 billion is about 5% of GDP and ground breaking if true. It would push the GERS figures well through the 10% barrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeGas Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 He's an arful dodger is Rab C. His relatively quick speak about the social union,the monarchy union,the currency union as if an independent Scotland will be the same for Unionists,they will still be part of the UK,British,his silly little childish explanations were weak. He's a Unionist when it suits him and Scottish Nat other times! His selfishness and arrogance comes through. Scotland are not going to share the oil,we're an independent country, out of the Union! Well,not completely out,we want to be in the Union as well. We just want the oil for ourselves and bugger the rUK. Is that okay? We'll still be friends won't we. Salmon and his nats plan reek of UK desertion. Of creepy deserters pretending they are justified in running out just because of anti English sentiment and the want to keep the 'oil cake' for themselves and to use it to persuade the Scottish people to be as selfish as they are! This is a most uncivilised plan and it will shame all of us. Funny Eyebrows will pick up on this. Consequences! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeGas Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 We have surplus nukes sonny. Wanna fight over it. We'll meet you at the Thames. It's UK oil,all have a share. Scotland could use it as a tool towards a fairer and wealthier Britain, not only Scotland. The Scottish Unionists would be up for that and it is fair and civilised. Oh and by the way, you wouldn't get as far as the Thames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
