So, just two weeks until the referendum and its neck and neck, with the Yes campaign just taking the lead according to the most recent surveys. Almost impossible to tell which way it will go, but I really hope the Scots choose to go their own way. Simply choosing to no longer be a nuclear power would make the population as a whole significantly wealthier (leave that to the English if they must have nukes), and the opportunities that come with a more socialist orientated government that isn't run by the billionaires of the South East would see the whole country sharing in the success.
The only people that aren't winning with a Yes vote is the English and Welsh, as there are still oil companies going to the North Sea, even if the oil fields are reducing. Such an exciting time to be a Scot, looking forward to the results with interest.
Very interesting to watch across the bond. I hope you guys stay with England but I know very little of your affairs. Whichever you choose, I hope it works out well. If you break away I wonder if Cameron would pull a Putin, that would be so cool.
Apparently, the reason is money

Hello, you delightful and exquisite people of the boxing world. I hope all is well with all with both lovers and loathers alike. Particular shout outs to the members of the party.
How splendid that the Scots appear to be heading down the right track. All I see from London is fear politics and threats and frankly it has been this way from London for decades, but carried out on people everywhere. At least Scotland has the right idea concerning the NHS and student fees and they logically have to cut off the UK link. The Scots have never voted for a Tory government (neither did Britain as a whole actually) and the opportunity to rid itself of the monstrosity that is London based politics has to be taken with both hands.
There are issues with independence (currency, monarchy etc) but to not take the chance to take matters into their own hands would be criminal. I hope Scotland leads the way in turn Northern Ireand, Wales and then Northern England too can become inspired and be led to freedom.
The breakup of the UK is something immensely positive and inspiring and if this first step can be taken, great things can hopefully follow. Well done Scotland for staying active and pushing this to the end. You deserve your freedom and so does the rest of the UK. A free Scotland is a game changer.
I know that Scottland got poorer because of Margaret Thatcher. They hate her there still.
I love beer there, btw

Howdy, my good friend. I hope all is well out your way. Aye, everything is pretty much sorted out here. We are moving to the new place as soon as we can get some people to move in here.
I've been logging in curious to see if the ban keeps me away and it quite definitely does. Two weeks has been plenty of time. Great news about the poll closing in Scotland too, very pleasing news to return to.
We are having another royal baby which should swing the vote to No to independence.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I value the lives of real people and their freedom. I couldn't give a damn about a silly bitch and her gay husband. It is nothing but a propaganda move and by a family that sucks on everything? They are despicable.

Scotland is the hope, the fake Monarchy is the drain. They are a disgusting family and I would like their Scotland homes to be scud bombed.
It seems the British crowd views the Scots as a drain on the UK. Shouldn't they also support Scottish independence then?
Most bad government has grown out of too much government. Thomas Jefferson
Scots should be grateful to England.
They prospered in all the British colonies and Scottish businessmen thrived as part of the British empire.
Before union, Scotland tried to have it's own colony, Nova Scotia, but France took it away rather easily.
Without Scotland, England would have still done very well and had her empire. But without England, Scotland would have been a much less significant country like Latvia.
But this is here today. Britain is a shell of a nation that starves cancer victims. Scotland needs to do the right thing and erase the real cancer.
There is not a single argument that can be made to suggest Scotland should stay in the City of Corruption. Of course it shouldn't and we should wish them well and stop scaring them.
The monarchy on the other hand should fear, as we really don't like them. Gay Will, nah, don't believe you.
