Michael W Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Quebec (twice). Also, not a single declaration has been made yet. Calm yourself down - bookies make mistakes and the polls do likewise. They are good signs for No at the moment, but please spare the soul searching just now.

Father Ted Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Embarrassing? Very much so. We will then be Westminster's bitch, and give it six months and no one in Scotland will admit to voting No, through shame and the ensuing disloyalty shown by Westminster. Altho' Im cautiously optimistic about a Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 We don't deserve to refer to ourselves as a country if it's a no. AGREE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseud0nym Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I dont hiink it would be embarrassing at all, granted there are those who will be extremely dissapointed but at the end of the day if the scottish do reject independence it should be celebrated by the UK as a whole. The world is struggling at the moment, a NO vote for independence is a YES vote for solidarity and that sort of message will resonate worldwide. We will have to see what the result will be. If there is a vote for independence then tomorrow is were the real debate will start and lets be honest it isn't going to pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Nederlander Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 give it six months and no one in Scotland will admit to voting No Well not many people were stating they'd vote No ahead of the vote, they were mostly folk like my parents who just let the thing trundle along, voted No and then went back to going about their normal business as usual.

LinkinFighter Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Incredibly embarrassing. I don't care what anyone says, it's embarrassing. Hand the power straight back to Westminster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Kelly Isley III Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 If it happens, not embarrassing at all. I doubt if any nation which has attained independence in the last 100 years has achieved victory in the face of such a sustained and vitriolic assault from a media enemy within, never mind the considerable forces of an incumbent Government machine. When you also factor in whatever percentage an antipathetic majority of some 400,000 English nationals resident in Scotland brings to bear then if Yes achieves say mid 40's in percentage then that's no mean achievement. But fear not, the Union is fatally damaged, and hopefully with it the Scottish Labour Party, this has been a shameful episode in its history.

Ned Nederlander Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Clearly if something like 54% of the people who live here want to remain part of the UK then the majority of people will be happy and not embarrassed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
