Scotland going it alone?

Countries with high tax usually have a far higher quality of life. Just look at Scandinavia.

 

All the bad things like poll tax were Tory Ideas

The SNP are Scottish Tories....time the Scottish Tory Party realised that

 

True....so why didn't the high rates of poll tax work for us?

The problem with Scotland....Scottish people

 

If the papers said the EU claimed the moon was made of cheese and they're allowing the French to mine it you'd be stupid enough to believe it.

 

Okay dear.

 

Because I've been to the moon. It was nice but lacking in atmosphere.

...

 

Exactly. You pay for what you get. I have the VD to prove it.

 

I didn't know VD was still about. Haven't they changed it's name to something else?

 

You are fooling no one Tina. What's it called now?

 

I don't know, but I'm sure there'll probably some new name. They changed STD's to STI's, didn't they

 

True.

 

There were far more problems than that with the poll tax. I'm not old enough to understand what they were so ask an old **** like stereo or tina.

 

Don't trust any political party with the word "national" in it's name. That's where "Nazi" comes from.

 

I'm not that old!

The poll tax didn't work because it was based on per person rather than per household. A lot of homes, a LOT of Tory homes, were hit hard because there were usually 2+ adults living there, hence the reason Middle England rebelled.

 

Mts - why don't u go home!

I'm with stereo here - ill wait to see the economic landscape in fours before makin up my mind fully. At this point I'm pro union

 

I was working in Covent Garden the day of the Poll Tax riot in Londomn, and went round to Trafalger Square to have a look. It didn't look like middle England revolting, more like middle Earth. Best riot I've ever seen, and proof that while the British are a stoical bunch they won't tolerate rank injustice.

 

I am home

I have got used to the decor
