    <doh>

    Half the undecided vote has accused the BBC of being biased. People at the televised debates have accused the BBC of being biased. And if its not been bias, its been the constant flow of sheer negativity. It's not very ****ing hard to notice and to be honest, it was completely expected.

    The other week when that treasury report came out the BBC had the nerve to add comments made by the LSE's Patrick Dunleavy and then remove them shortly afterwards. Only to then add it again later after users caused an uproar in the comments section. Why would they remove comments which essentially debunked the treasuries argument if they were not showing bias?

    If you really think the BBC is an unbiased entity through and through then you're a spacker, much like jacky and his RT.

    A vote either way in the referendum will mean **** all in the grand scheme of things...

    You will see no major difference...

    We'll still be governed by self serving arseholes.

    To be fair...I don't.

    I'm undecided on my vote...
    I think what we have now is ok and could work better if we had "devo max"...the case for independence...I'm not sure if it's strong enough.

    I would've voted devo max and I'm sure most other people would have also. Thanks to the 3 main parties that never happened and now they have the cheek to tell us they will give us more powers but they are no sure what?

    These *****s showed how little they understood of Scots by threatening them with stupid things like the pound. Scots are more inclined to tell you to go **** yourself if you start threatening them, as opposed to backing down.

    For me its simply about what arseholes I want in charge (as like you say they are all ****s)

    **** Scotland and **** patriotism, but **** Cameron more.

    I think I'll take this opportunity to once again say that i believe JK Rowling is a self centred, greedy old **** and if she has 1 million quid to spare there are far better causes for her to give it to.

    When she was on her arse as a struggling single mother in Edinburgh she enjoyed the support of local Government as well as charity organisations. How soon filthy rich ****s forget.

    Am no that sure the auld boot is even Scottish.

    Maybe she just likes Scotland being in the UK in the same way those lotto winners want an Independent Scotland? (and they didn't donate their money to good causes either)

    She wasn't born up there Gambol. I just do not get why you would pay to support a Government backed campaign when there are so many other great causes you could give that money to. As I said on the other thread I can only assume that she believes she'd pay more tax in an Independent Scotland.

    People who donate dosh to political parties/causes are ****s, in my opinion. They're using their money to help sway public opinion to their own.
