I was wondering that, too, Dotchinite. It almost came across as a veiled threat.

Are you still there, Alias? What is the alternative to a referendum?
|

By:
plebiscite

Nationalist foaming over Nicola reminds me of the euphoria over the election of Obama.
Well, what did he deliver? Come on then Alias, answer the question. |

Alias, alas, seems to have departed.

Who is going to deny a referendum if it is the obvious wish of the Scottish people Obviously Nationalists would like another vote on independence sooner rather than later but IF you got independence when would you have a referendum to see if Scotland would like to rejoin the union, ten years, twenty years later, never ? That is something I would like to hear the answer to. |

Pokermonster, use your imagination and wait and see. As for Obama, we are not the USA thank phuq, but he did deliver huge improvement in US healthcare. Maybe you'd like to see the UK go totally private though.
Rejoin the union? That might be akin to Poland applying to reform the General Government after the second coming of Hitler.  |

When independence happens (which it will) in the next few years it will be interesting to see how it works out for them. My suspicion is that a big percentage of their supporters will feel they have been mislead within a year or so.
So much is reliant on the oil price of course and im assuming there wont be any real effort for another referendum until thats at a higher price than today. |

That might be akin to Poland applying to reform the General Government after the second coming of Hitler So its ok to push ahead with another referendum within 10 years if its the obvious wish of the Scottish people but if 20 years down the line if the wish of the Scottish people is to rejoin the union that would be a no to a referendum to rejoin then. |

No it's not, and there will be another referendum when we are as sure as sure can be to win. |

Whereas the working class throughout the UK are paying for the phuckups of the rich and powerful, while the millionaires are awarded tax cuts. |

Alias. Why do I have to use my imagination, sir? I might arrive at the wrong conclusion. Why can't you just tell me? Also, when you write "there will be another referendum when we are as sure as sure can be to win" you imply that such an event is in the control of the Scottish parliament alone. Surely this isn't the case?
|
|
By:
As I see it, another referendum in the near future is a complete non-starter, we've just had one and the decision was clear.

Poor Alias. If I stretch my imagination I can just about get my head around a grown man bawling his eyes out when his team gets relegated with the last kick of the game at seasons end. But ffs it's months since he was told to go and fucck himself by the Scottish people and he is still sobbing like a toddler who has had his sweets taken off him.
He simply can't be the full shilling so I fully expect him to be in Wee Jimmy Krankie's cabinet. Cultural attache to the ar5e end of somewhere no doubt. |

Poor Alias.
When he suggests a referendum might not be the only way to independence he is alluding to UDI similar to Rhodesia all those years ago. It's a common theme between all SNP activists but especially the Scottish Resistance mob. They live in their own wee world. |

BTW scandi it wasn't 45% of Scottish people it was only 38% of Scottish people.

That's yer average SNP activist. BTW Alias makes an appearance at the end of this clip and has plenty to say although they've edited out the silly bits. |
