We got away with it last time as nobody thought Yes might win until the last few days. Now, with Indy being painted as a threat to Brexit as well as the UK and seemingly far more likely we'll see a Yes win, I do fear there are a few staunch warriors out there prepared to defend the sacred union. Rhetoric on both sides needs to be calm, measured and very careful not to enflame and encourage these mad c***s. 24 hours in it's a massive fail on that front. Sent from my MotoG3 using Pie and Bovril mobile app I'm biased, obviously, but I listened to radio Scotland and LBC most of the day today. I was struck by how angry some of the no side seemed....at pretty much every aspect of this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My attitude to the brutal and odious SNP morelike. I'm perfectly relaxed about Scotland negotiating independence once the whole Brexit shite is done and we see how the settlement is. This is what a sane person would do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to hide behind the wording of "official nominee" then I hope that you are consistent and concede that no Westminster government or PM has ever been elected. Ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both The FM and The PM are appointees of the monarch.
