ForzaDundee Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Excerpt from local Labour party email in the north east. Have they just conceded the central belt? Labour are trying a divide and rule strategy, particularly in Aberdeen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrmad Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 (edited) I'm loving the complacency on here, I thought we'd stopped the knickerwetting on here 'til nearer the time, at least we'll have a few NO voter to debate with now that they think they're going to win comfortably again, it had went very quiet when the polls were closing.

Confidemus Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Well you vanished fairly sharpish after last weeks amusing humiliation of you from Lichtgilphead. That was quite the humilation wasn't it.

Thumper Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I must have missed this... You were too busy sitting under the stairs insisting that you had something in your eye, I believe, following the revelation that you had no idea how political donations to the Yes campaign actually work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's going to ask for proof or some such shite. PLEASE don't be tempted to get involved again. He's been bitch slapped once. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/jun/10/scottish-independence-referendum-bet-no-vote Who bets £400,000 on a relatively close referendum? Madness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was this where I said that BT had substantially more small donors than Yes Scotland? And was, umm, proven to be absolutely correct? That was humiliating for lichgilphead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Who bets £400,000 on a relatively close referendum? Madness. It's about value. If he calculates the odds of No winning to be better than 1/4 then it's a value bet. I think he's right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyal-blue Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 (edited) I had somebody tell me they were a yes voter today but they weren't voting. I hope and strongly assume that this isn't common...

Is there honestly anyone in the country that isn't regularly bombarded with electoral registration forms? I get them about every two weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had somebody tell me they were a yes voter today but they weren't voting. I hope and strongly assume that this isn't common... Weirdly I don't think it's all that uncommon... One of the radio stations I have liked on facebook posted a status a month or so ago, simply asking the referendum question. Someone replied "I would vote yes, but I never vote" Fucking numpties 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the radio stations I have liked on facebook posted a status a month or so ago, simply asking the referendum question. Someone replied "I would vote yes, but I never vote" Fucking numpties My own personal opinion is that YES have a majority already, but that it is a majority which does not easily engage with a political system that they effectively feel increasingly disenfranchised from. It suits BT to sling mud and drag it down to a namecalling excercise as it will confirm the thoughts of those people that politicians are ultimately self serving and their vote wont matter anyway, as we see with the three London centric parties who all broadly follow the same political idealogy with their debates now being about how to implement, and how quickly, a policy as opposed to differing on actual political objectives. If YES can mobilise and engage a demoralised and untrusting electorate then the referendum is theirs to win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
