    Anywaaaaaay. I see Better Together are falling apart. Riven by petty, personal battles and weak leadership. Oh aye, and a Government minister admitting that a currency union would make sense if Scotland left the UK.

    :)

    Anyone with a brain in the yes or no camp knows that a currency union would make sense if there was a yes vote. I'm beginning to think a yes vote may actually be the best outcome for everyone.

    It won't be for the North East Of Scotland, Dan.

    The main income for currently Britain and a potential independent Central Belt based Scotland. The revenue has been pished up against a wall and will continue unabated under the sponging Central Belt.

    Oh and the Shetlanders are back banging on about independence from Scotland. Norway must be rubbing it's hands.

    And the Western Isles want independence from Scotland too. That's half the whisky business ****ed for a start.

    If Shetland get their wish (how could fatso Salmond refuse them ffs) it's going to get very interesting considering the extent of oil and gas in Shetland waters and the Sullen Woe gas terminal and the new Total terminal which has just been built. Then of course we have the lucrative West Of Scotland fields.

    Fatso Salmond has not thought any of this through, surprisingly enough.

    Imagine being born to parents who moved to another country looking for a better way of life. Imagine moking the residents of that country and telling them that they should be more like the residents of the other country your parents fled.
