frugal Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I see the Yes campaingers trying to claim that the banking crisis was completely beyond the pale for the Nats which is a reasonable judgement. Strangely enough this blog contains a letter written to the then Sir Fred Goodwin at the time of the RBS bid to buy AMRO....not such a good judgement http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/politics/revealed-salmond-s-support-for-goodwin-over-disastrous-rbs-deal-1.1046662 The interesting thing about all of this is the way, yet again there's an attempt to pass it off as a "good luck" letter. To me it shows that the great SNP leader and FM is very fallible and more importantly dangerous. What other "errors of judgement" are there? So what he offers his support, it's a hell of alot more than the establishment is doing for Scotland atm, why would you when something is trying to better itself try to rip it apart? Greed.

Confidemus Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 The No vote is increasing thanks to Salmond's central position, that's increasing. He's the main representative nationally because he's chosen to take central stage. Oh btw you still haven't responded to the OP.... How deluded. Bless. You believe the No vote is increasing. Please make sure you frequent these boards on Friday so I can officially hand your arse to you on a platter. And I've told you, I'm not responding to your creepy, one sided, obsessive fixation with our glorious leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casual Bystander Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 This would be Fred Goodwin who was nominated by Better Together supporting Labour for a knighthood and "close personal friend" of Better Together's Gordon Brown?The same Fred Goodwin, that Ed Miliband publicly denounced Better Together's Gordon Brown for knighting? Ed Miliband today backs calls for disgraced banker Sir Fred Goodwin to be stripped of his knighthood – admitting Gordon Brown should never have given him the honour.

Casual Bystander Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Who was financial advisor to the Treasury when Fred Goodwin was knighted? Why it was Better Together's supporting Labour leader Ed Miliband. Imagine that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why it was Better Together's supporting Labour leader Ed Miliband. Imagine that. You see that's the problem isn't it. The BT side never politicized this. that was all down to Salmond. Tory, Lib Dem, Labour, and all independents are all opposed to independence equally. It's when Salmond tries to claim the high ground on bankers and financial institutions....doesn't seem credible to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banterous Posted September 14, 2014 Author Share Posted September 14, 2014 Lol whit?? Everyone knows the votes not for Salmond or Cameron... Who do you think will have political power that will be unchallenged for years to come? Oh that's right he's doing it for the "good of Scotland".

Tory, Lib Dem, Labour, and all independents are all opposed to independence equally. Wait, what? You are claiming it's Salmond's fault that personal friend to Better Together's Gordon Brown, the man who presided over one of the worst financial crisis in history, Fred Goodwin was knighted by Better Together supporting Labour Party? You know, I'm trying to join the dots, but for the life of me I cannot see how Salmond can be faulted for Fred Goodwin being knighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah right so not able to answer the question so add in something irrelevant. Salmond sent a letter of support for an action that caused the collapse of a bank. Now that ensures that his judgement is as flawed as Brown and New Labour. The other thing is that BT consists of many people across political persuasions whereas Yes seems to include the SNP Oh and Tommy Sheridan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casual Bystander Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Salmond sent a letter of support for an action that caused the collapse of a bank. Going by that logic, Neville Chamberlain was responsible for WW2! Desperate, desperate scrambling. You started this thread off as a dig at Salmond but totally forgot that Fred Goodwin was completely and utterly in bed with Better Together's Gordon Brown, and Better Together's Labour Party. The Fred Goodwin fiasco and the subsequent financial crash has the stamp of Better Together all over them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You a right Yes is confined and surrounded by a biased media and the overpowering hate of the establishment but social media nd the grass roots work of the Yes campaign that cuts across a range of political divides, Labour, Greens, SNP, Socialists all are out there fighting for a Yes vote.

And you accuse me of not answering the question. You have absolutely shat yourself in this thread and the other one. A complete embarrassment. However you are right that Better Together covers different parties. Indeed we have Better Together's Labour contingent of Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling presiding over one of the worst financial crisis in living memory, and Better Together's Conservative leader David Cameron enforcing some of the deepest austerity measures this country has ever seen driving thousands beyond the point of poverty, causing the increase in food banks and resulting in cuts in public services across the land. But we are all in it together, right? All in it Better Together, right? But, hey, let's just ignore all that because it doesn't suit your loyalist sympathising agenda.
