    Which is why Britain will never be the same ever again.

    The outcome will have very little impact on how things go forward. I've seen some ****s saying that they might try block the new devolved powers for Scotland. Aye, see how that goes for you when its no just the Scots wanting more power but the Welsh, English and Irish.

    Westminister has lost either way.

    Labour need a new leader...both in England and Scotland. They picked the wrong brother...

    And no matter the result on Thursday/Friday, they need to do a lot of work in Scotland. Scottish Labour have Bern in decline since Dewar died.

    you're not interested in any opinion other than yours. So, it's pointless.

    And I'm not calling you an intellectual...far from it.

    100% Agreed.

    Lamont, Davidson and whoever the **** the Lib dem guy is are total nobodies. If its independence we will get all the Scottish MP's back from Westminister though so there will be better candidates imo.

    They have and Labour have been in decline in the UK since John Smith died. The current Labour party is right of Ted Heath's Tory party and will be unelectable in Scotland.

    Provided we vote YES this will change and there is a good chance that a Labour party will emerge more aware of its roots and its traditional role. Hundreds of thousands of Labour voters are voting YES in this referendum they will not forget what Labour did here, win or lose.

    Will Scottish MPs continue to sit in Westminster if you vote Yes, or will they abstain like Sinn Féin?

    We can all agree about that, despite not being genetically programmed to make political decisions.

    I just hope that when Pete Wishart comes back he gets ousted from his seat.

    I really can't stand that ****. Strikes me as the sort of **** that campaigns for independence because he watched Braveheart.

    One of the big unknowns.

    But its only unknown because the current government refuses to discuss contingency plans. About anything at all.

    That's because it doesn't have any - it took a conscious decision to not work on a plan B.
