The lipstick strategy 6:59pm on 22 Sep 2008 Oh dear, reluctant-expat. Did you have a bad day? Where have you got all these conspiracy theories from? Just because some nats may believe them does not mean that ALL nats think that way. After all there are many labour supporters who believe in the Loch Ness Monster (which of course is true) but that does not mean that most labour supporters believe in it.
Come on now, stop this ridiculous stance and get on with a proper debate.
And as to the oil statement, remember that there were Scottish Nationalists long before we knew about oil in the north sea.
Also, leave the poor Americans out of this, they have enough problems without you trying to drag them into what is essentially a local disagreement.
The lipstick strategy 2:51pm on 22 Sep 2008 Here we go again. Labour giving out that same old 'tartan tory' tripe again. That slanderous statement is just as outdated as 'New Labour'. You can tell that a party is in trouble when it stops attacking their opponents policies and reverts to ridiculous rhetoric. R.I.P. the Labour party.
Not on top form 08:28am on 13 Sep 2008 I have watched this blog and the statements with a humerous slant, however, I can't believe that someone would even think that if a Scot wishes to vote for independence then they must have racist tendencies. I have lived in England most of my life and, at the same time, been a fervent supporter of the SNP. My daughter is English and so are my grandchildren. Most of my friends are English and I would have to add that I have rarely come across an English person that I did not like. However, I still want my country to be independent from Westminster; that does not make me racist it just makes me like the idea that I want my country to go down a different path from Westminster. We live in a democratic country and have the right to decide how we wish to vote and think. So please, don't bring the spectre of racism or anti-Englishness into this debate as it does not belong here. Also I would like to add that when Scotland gets its indepence I will continue to live quite happily in England where I have made my home. I want to be friends with the English not an enemy.
