Scottish independence

[TTTCITYBHOY]

It's all getting a bit boring now.
I wish they would just fuck off!

I thought I was yer pal :(

Present company excluded! :-)

I had a good chat with our salesman for Glasgow today who is down for some training.
He says he has never seen anything like it. The 'no' voters are frothing at the mouth and
appear to be absolutely certain they have pulled this one off.
The 'yes' voters are scared to death to say a word in public due to the abuse they might receive.
He says it has split friends, families the lot - completely and totally divisive.
He also reckons if the 'yes' voters do win they will bin Salmond off ASAP.
They need him to gain independence but on the whole he is far from well liked even by them.
What a mess.

Firstly,thanks mate.
My mrs told me about 2 months ago...it's a NO.
At the time I thought...yes,it'll be something different for the country.
The more I watched the shit coming out the mouths of certain people totally changed my opinion.
Salmond,Cameron etc etc etc are doin ma fukn nut in tbh.
It's never off the TV up here,fukn sick of it.
NAW

I heard that from a guy in our Glaswgow office, that Salmond would go.. The woman who is acting as sidekick for the Yes campaign is favourite surely

That's exactly what my Glasgow man said. Interesting times!

So 3 banks today and standard life have today made it clear they are off after a yes vote. I think that will just about end this debacle. Expect a huge swing to no in the next few days as the realities become more clear to those who were voting without thinking.

Think by 'they' you mean mean their brass plate HQ offices, which under EU legislation and the importance of the City is understandable and expected. Sure it will be hysterically whipped up into some mass exodus of all banks and all companies by the establishment media, though.

Either this or the mass exodus of the non Scottish customers. I had already contacted another bank to see how easy it is to move my accounts from RBS, but the news that if there should be a yes vote the bank will move then I may think again about moving my accounts.

I think it is a threat to deprive an independent Scotland, should there ever be one, of the corporate tax, as presumably that would then be paid in London, not Edinburgh.

If RBS move south after a yes vote.could they be made remove Scotland from their name? I know it's petty just a thought I had.also I did ask earlier but got no reply.if I don't vote who gets my vote?

Financial institutions like to plan as far ahead and know as much as possible about key changes that affect how they work. By staying in Scotland after a 'yes' vote, they will have to contend with key unknowns such as who controls base rates, currency and EU membership or even non-EU membership. Relocating out of Scotland will negate 2 of these issues. Another issue is will customers invest their pensions in a foreign country which is going through such key changes - you'd have to be mad. The SNP call this scaremongering, which is their stock answer for anything that doesn't suit their line of bull.

My view - if the people of Scotland are stupid enough to risk a journey into the unknown and trust people like Salmond and Sturgeon, good luck to them. They'll need it.

seems strange RBS coming out with this with only days to go when they have had years to bring it up. wonder if they have had a nudge off the government, banks should stay out of politics but then again they run the country not Cameron and his cronies
