Hmmm. Maybe it does belong to them. No matter, come the 18th P4CKS and I will be waving our 'vote Gary c' flags.

All of course is Ross's opinion and ideals. The truth of what is happening in Shetland is... http://www.shetnews....-althing-debate

Thanks Scott. Interesting reading.

No worries.

Tonight in Burntisland round the corner:



No sign of the dreaded salmond, white papers, silly headlines...just grassroots. People talking in halls. This is where the campaign is really being won or lost.

[Goosenka]

Burntisland? Never heard of that place? Is it nice?

[LY_Scott]

Its a holiday town but I live here at its easy commute to Edinburgh. Nice this time of year with the fair and blue flag beach, tourists etc.

Quieter in the winter.

Ah I thought it was a made up name. What does Indy Blethers mean?

[LY_Scott]

Blethers is a Scottish word just means kind of casual chin wag. Have a blether = have a chat Or someone can be a blether if they talk too much and mostly shite. Ross is a massive blether

[Goosenka]

You have your language already then. May as well do one then.

[LY_Scott]

We're trying really hard!

Coming from the man who just described Burntisland as a "holiday town" and thinks going to a meeting full of Yes supporters for some mutual back patting " a blether"

[LY_Scott]

I'm not going to the meeting Ross I'm watching the football. Burntisland is a holiday town. The unmistakable sound of weegies from may to September tells me so.

The main point being there are zero no campaign meetings. Its all top down stuff. Press releases, government docs. The BBC. Anytime they attend a debate they lose. Will be why Alistair Darling has poofed out of the latest one and why Cameron point blank won't do it.

I agree there. The no campaign has been slow to mobilise and as a consequence has not built up the level of local involvement, which is a significant failing on the part of those organising it. As for the debate, I thought it was a mutual clash of dates that meant it wasn't on.. AD wouldn't be my choice either, and we both know why CMD won't do it... Ps.- Burntisland must seem strange to most weggies - everybody's called Ken..

Look out for the puke inducing propaganda. Whisky bottles? At least get a local whisky...no no that would mean one from Fife and would mean highlighting thats there's a massive industrial spirits manufacturer in Fife (Johnnie Walker, Bells, Smirnoff, Gordons, Tanquery etc.). Lets stick to a little one. That's whats Scotland's all about right? people doing stuff in cow sheds. Tartan, shortbread, bagpipes, that sort of thing. Quaint, there there now. How cute you made something....

 

Don't think for a second the Armed forces day with all in attendance being held at Stirling (on the anniversary of Bannockburn as well) was a coincidence either.

 

The daily rolling out of americans and Simon cowells in the media saying they'd like us to vote no etc. Jesus wept. Who cares?

 

Meanwhile back on planet grassroots and debate Dundee votes yes in referendum survey.

 

Public meetings in halls across the country have bumper attendances.

 

Alistair Carmichael admits increased poverty is a direct result of government policies.

 

A Scottish Labour MP states even if Scots would be better off he'd still vote no. (Out of a job pal?)

 

Hopeless Better together campaign changes its name to "No Thanks"

 

Labour candidate says children brought by their families to a peaceful protest at the BBC on Sunday was disgraceful and equates to the hitler youth...she resigns. Meanwhile Better together post out to every house in Scotland a pamflet with kids running on the front. #irony

 

In other news George Galloway says voting yes will mean an end to catholic schools and mosques....Why are the Orange order backing No then George?

 

Quite funny if it wasn't so important.

Don't forget that MI5 (in cahoot's with the London-based MSM) is posing as nationalista's in order to subvert the campaign of the righteous and free!
