Poll: Most Scots want to stay in UK and keep pound

When is Alistair Darling 
and the Better Together campaign going to catch on that scaremongering only disgusts? It doesn’t frighten. Scotland and the diminished UK would not “have to agree everything”. What a stupid thing to say. Neither new sovereign country would need permission from the other to implement their respective budgets.

We are witnessing Better 
Together getting more silly and desperate by the day. France and Belgium are in a currency union, as is most of Europe. Do they have to agree on everything, are all taxes the same between all the members? Of course not.

This whole escapade is a waste of time and money at a time when Alex Salmond’s focus should be on encouraging inward investment and governing. The SNP should have had the vote in May this year and got the ruddy carry on over and done with.

When oh when is a unionist going to come up with one, just one, actual reason to stay in their Union? If it were the other way and you were asked to vote for, for example, two aircraft carriers and Trident, would you do so? How many children could we lift out of poverty with the £9 billion cost to the Scottish people for these weapons of mass destruction?

The UK rating is about to 
be downgraded further after the loss of the AAA rating recently, the mainstay to vote No according to Darling … hence this load of rubbish with Darling repeating himself, telling Scots that the 
British pound is not as much Scottish as it is English. There’s your “union” for you in a nutshell.

Methinks that this poll was arranged just to produce 
whatever the unionists wanted in order to clash with the SNP conference.

Wot, no mention of another poll showing the Yes vote on the up and only a 5 per cent swing required for victory?
