Scotch Independence - the countdown

Oh dear, the tried and trusted " I was fishing " defence is trotted out;

What a tedious cockchaffer you are.

 

Much call for hairdressers during a flood?

 

Two sentences, I'm proud. Not my fault, you're falling for into such cliche.

 

People's hair doesn't stop growing in times of rain.

Are you bald, ST?

 

Me bald? Hardly! Although I did get it cut last week as the burd was complaining that it was getting as long as hers.

 

Could you try to explain more clearly what you mean ? The whole thing will work better that way.

 

No, it's ****in not you ****in half-wit.

 

Stick to discussions about biscuits and favourite kinds of beverages and leave the grown up talk to those of us with more than two marbles rattling about inside our skulls

 

Time to close the thread then

 

hippy tree hugging **** with no girlfriend and no four kids.

 

Doesn't even make sense ya daft old ****.

 

What a ****in clown.

Just like Salmond.

Arrogant and presumptious.

Not done your homework sonny, like the the SNP.

 

In 1707 the separate kingdoms of scotland and england were joined together to form the united kingdom via the treaty of union, within this treaty the currency of both nations became the pound sterling. It belongs to neither one nor the other.

 

Exactly. So break up the union and you break up the currency. You can call it what you ****ing want afterwards.

 

Next thing you know Westminister will be claiming we are not allowed to use British oxygen.

 

So there is nothing to stop us calling our new currency "The Pound" or "Sterling". Plenty of countries have Dollars after all.

 

Nothing at all, you can call it what you want. You can put the queen's head on it, or Sean Connery's if you ****ing want. That misses the point completely.

The issue is not the currency. The issue is the currency union. Recent events in the Eurozone illustrate how difficult it is to have a currency union without political union. So the sterling you use north of the border will not neccessarily have parity with the pound we use south of it.

 

I typed up a bit about this, but I thought it would get lost on them.

 

So, we'll have our own currency and be completely debt free. Just like Rangers. We can call this place New Scotland. All we have to do is make sure Charles Green doesn't become First Minister and we'll be sorted.

 

Archer educating the haggis munchers, you guys are going to be ****ing clueless when we're not here to explain things to you.
