    This is going to be historic!

    I can't wait for those wee dafty jock-meisters to shoot themselves in the foot!

    Not metaphorically, but literally... Fire-arms will be the first thing brought in by 'thanoo' Scottish Government.

    Question is: should we take Newcastle back into the fold?

    Nah, the last thing we need is thousands of overweight, unemployed dog ****ers blighting our country.

    Osborne saying we can't have sterling.

    Doesn't he know we don't need permission? We can use it anyway but it will be without backing or agreed lending structure etc.

    I like this. Being reliant on the Bank of England and the vagaries of their tax rates in an in dependant Scotland made no sense to me.

    I don't understand finance fully enough really. But it seems silly for Scotland to be beholden to what would essentially be the interest & lending rates of a foreign nation.

    Another Tory **** telling us what we can and can't do.

    That'll add at least another three per cent to the Yes poll.

    The taxi driver I got to work this morning claimed that an independent Scotland would have the same problems as Northern Ireland within 5 years. <laugh>

    I just nodded at the ****.

    He also told me that the flooding in England couldn't possibly be linked to climate change (not global warming but climate change <doh>) because that area has flooded in the past. <laugh> <laugh>

    Well yeah, u can call ur currency anything u like. U can even use chocolate money and call it sterling if u want. But u can only have a currency union if the remainder of the uk agrees to it.

    Aye, okay. You do realise you'd be lumbered with our share of the debt meaning you'll get taxed to **** to pay for it?

    Having any bank on your side is a bad thing.

    They have caused most of the problems with the recession.

    It was people's lack of self-control who caused the reseshun.

    Only threw Christ, shall thee repent.
