Arild Stavrum, ex-Aberdeen footballer, was on Off the Ball on Radio Scotland on Saturday. It's funny how you can watch or hear something non-political, and it tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about being a so called "nation."

Arild told the two supposedly learned hosts about the Norwegian Dissolution Referendum of 1905, when Norway gained independence from Sweden...previously, Norway had been attached to Denmark. Arild joked that it was "like a Saddaam Hussein vote."
85.4% turnout, women did not have the vote, yet Norwegian suffragists collected 244,675 votes for dissolution of the Union. 368,208 - "yes" 184 - "no" 3,519 - spoiled votes. And that, Scottish bottlers, is a Nation. |

Absolutely nothing to do with "bottle", you're showing yourself up with your ignorance.
I'm English born to an English mother and Scottish father and was brought up in Scotland until I was eight. I consider my nationality as British. I wasn't eligible to vote but would have been a cast iron NO. My own father could have been a foreigner almost overnight with a YES vote majority. The Scots instigated the Union, we all live on a small island and most of us have bloodlines from both sides of Hadrian's Wall. We don't want our families to be foreigners. We're better together for countless reasons. |

By:
Great - I'll gladly take that on-board for "countless reasons"...along with "I wasn't eligible to vote..."
Have a nice day, Nigel. |

Norway I suppose always spoke Norwegian even under swedish rule, the english know a thing or 2 about how to extinguish nationhood, plantation of a bunch of foreigners is a lesson russia learnt, ethnic cleansing, forcing use of english etc. Your english before you know it.

That's a good point, Brendan. The schools and official buildings in Scotland are labelled with Gaelic signs too...to the effect of general merriment by the locals in Glasgow, etc.

That's a good point, Breadn. The schools and official buildings in Peru are staffed with Quechua speakers...to the effect of general merriment by the locals in Lima, etc., who tend to dislike a merely spoken language IMPOSED by a moribund empire.

Some of them bottled it.
But most of them are just looking after no.1, as usual. |

By:
Over 2m voted to remain loyal to the Union.
Loyal to our brothers and sisters in England, Wales and Ireland.  (When I say Ireland I'm obviously ignoring the foreign south part) |

Plenty of West Brits in certain parts of Dublin in particular.

By:
old folk, women, and people born outside scotland i read were the main No voters

Unionists - the dirty secret of Scotland.
Would rather be controlled by another someone else for no common sense reason. Just some sad living in the dark ages fantasy. Please leave  |

By:
Controlled by someone else?
 Last Prime Ministers of the UK all Jocks, Cameron Blair and Broon |

By:
I think we have very different definitions of "fair and square"

By:
seeing the No voters singing "Let's all laugh at Scotland", waving the Union Jack and burning the Saltire in George Square Glasgow on Friday says it all, all ignored by mainstream media not surprisingly.

@caleyjags Try this link which tells a different story. It would seem it's not just the media who ignore things. Cries of "Brits out" and "up the ra" what's that got to do with Scotland. |

So it would appear does Salmond. Changes the rules to allow 16 and 17 year olds to vote for the first time. I wonder why. |

The bottlers will always be known as 'The Treacherous'.
Future generations will deny all knowledge of being related to them. The shame would be too much to cope with. |

And the insults from yes voters continues.
There was no indication that Scotland wanted to leave the Union. There was two years of campaigning from both sides before the referendum and still after all this time the people spoke and wished to remain in the Union as was thought all along. Only a numpty could think that is treachery or bottling. It's called democracy. How on earth can someone say Scotland should be independent and decide it's own future and then when it decides it's future to remain in the Union piss and moan because it wasn't the decision you wanted? People are far more likely to look back in the future and see how divisive this whole thing was as the 45% rather than focusing on creating a better future in a devolved Scotland focus their negative energy on insults and boycotts. |
