Loondave1 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Really ? The first link has a list of headlines during the referendum. All shite, some mental but ALL printed in newspapers.Again "all shite" is your opinion.Some undoubtedly are but in my opinion rightly or wrongly some such as a Scottish economic depression may be true.I can differentiate between my "opinion"and fact.Sadly Campbell loonball assumes all his "opinions"are incontestable facts.

Fide Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 I find it entirely laughable that the "all in it together", "pooling and sharing", "one nation", "no borders" Unionists pop a fucking capillary at the not in any way new news that Stuart Campbell lives in Bath.

Brushing aside your dreadful attempt at humour for a second, do you not see the irony in a servile Britnat being up in arms at Stuart Campbell living in Bath? Surely we're all one big cuddly country?

Campbell did not have a vote in the referendum and it's laughable that you think it is not relevant. He also admits that he supported a "BritNat"party (as you call them) on his blog - "The site is edited and maintained by Rev. Stuart Campbell, a Liberal Democrat voter at every election from 1992 to 2010 inclusive but now non-aligned." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop Briggs Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Neither did David Cameron. What's your point? Irony mainly as he would not gain much personally, if anything, from Scotland's independence. I admire his tenacity as it is not easy to build up a large readership for a political blog. The Guido Fawkes blog is the only one with a bigger audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Um, that's not what irony is, unless you get your definition of irony from Alanis Morissette. I'm always surprised that people (and I don't mean you here) berate this guy for campaigning for Scottish independence whilst living elsewhere in the UK. I genuinely saw someone claiming that it's ok for Cameron and anyone living outside the UK to campaign for a "No" vote but no acceptable for them to campaign for a "Yes" vote. The reason? Because it's not ok to tell people why to vote for change, but it's ok to tell people to vote for things to stay the same (not that that has happened with a "no" vote).

Surely we're all one big cuddly country? Or is that only when it suits? He can live where he likes but I still find amusement in his Scottish independence obsession while holed up in the West Country.I again stress its only my opinion but he comes across to me as a tinfoil hat wearing attention seeker.Maybe he just wants to tell Scottish people he lives abroad. ..

That's intentionally misleading if you write something that you don't have a Scooby Doo whether it's true or not. You're clutching at straws here. Not really a fan of Campbell but he blows holes in unionist propaganda with ease and with evidence to back it up. Here's some headlines for you.“Scotland heading for a ‘Great Depression’ after a Yes vote” “Independence: Criminal gangs could exploit new border to evade arrest” “Independent Scotland would struggle to monitor intelligence” “Telecoms groups set to warn of price rises if Yes vote triumphs” “Independence might literally kill the Queen”* “Scots families face cost of living crisis if UK splits” “Scotland would have to increase taxes by up to £18,000 per person” “Independent Scotland faces doubling of BBC licence fee'” “Independence Could Put Scotland In Danger Of Russian Invasion” “Yes vote will be catastrophic for all” “Savers’ money at risk if Scotland votes Yes” “Scotland team may miss Rio Olympics in event of vote for independence” “Independence: Business Leader Evokes Fears Of New Jacobite Wars” “Scottish independence: £750m welfare bill claim” “£780m school cuts after Yes vote” “Scottish independence means new wave of painful austerity” “Shopping bills will rise if Scots vote for independence” “Yes vote would be a betrayal of fallen WW2 comrades“ “Independence would lead to decades of pain and aggravation” “Every Scot £480 worse off under independence” “Yes vote risks EU veto and Wonga style interest rates” “Universities braced for brain drain if country votes for independence” “Yes vote risks foreign aid” “Yes vote is threat to freedom” “Scots would lose access to BBC shows after independence” “Independent Scotland’s viewers must pay extra for BBC” “Alex Salmond’s currency Plan A would collapse within a year” “Independent Scotland’s economy would crash if it tried to use sterling” “Go-it-alone Scotland ‘defenceless’: Nation will be left without weapons” “Mortgages up £1600 if Yes” “Scottish yes vote could lead to currency limbo, say MPs” “Postal costs in Scotland could rise after independence, say MPs” “Scotland and the UK will separate geographically, as well as politically” “Yes could be catalyst for sterling crisis” “Yes will send shares crashing” “Labour claim 1m may lose jobs after independence” “Darling: Independence could cost Scotland £8bn” “700,000 to Leave if Union is Broken” “Yes vote would lead to economic crisis worse than the crash” “UK split to set back cure for cancer” “Gordon Brown raises organ-transplant fears ahead of referendum” “Scotland’s tourism industry is threatened by independence” “Split ‘may cost Scots £400m for welfare IT’ “Yes vote pension cost warning“ “Vulnerable people could lose benefits in an independent Scotland“ “Bank bailout doubt if Scots vote to quit UK“ “Independent Scotland Could Suffer Iceland-Style Financial Collapse“ “Consumers would snub separate Scotland’s brands“ “Scottish independence ‘would harm world’s poorest'” “Go-alone Scotland faces threats from space” “Scottish Independence Will Lead to Soaring Energy Bills” “Scotland faces £143bn debt after independence” “Fears for fishing in breakaway Scotland” “Thousands of defence jobs will be at risk if Scotland votes Yes” “Scottish independence will cause civil war in Africa”* “Scottish independence would be cataclysmic for the world” What a fucking list :lol: And pee brains such as Kev would have been guzzling it down.

David Cameron didn't have a vote in the referendum either, doesn't stop him having an opinion. He did support the Lid Dems until he realised what out and out cnuts they are. What's wrong with that ? Stop talking shite , the unionists on this thread couldn't come up with a brain cell between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antlion Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 ^ The Lib Dems have always been avid Unionists. The Lib Dems have always claimed (and still claim) to support federalism, a system in which Scotland would be in control of all domestic policy and all Scottish revenue, with Westminster being a meeting place for British MPs to discuss foreign affairs and defence. The fact that they argued for nothing approaching this during the Smith Commission, likely the only time they'd have the opportunity to make any kind of difference, has only recently betrayed their lily-livered promises of federalism to be entirely meretricious.

Good for you. Leading headlines with no substance is what that boils down to. Must be right up your street. In awe of wings ? The guys a fanny but does write some good stuff from time to time.
