Things get a wee bit mad after a single poll. Panic in the papers, panic in Westminster.
Suddenly the penny drops that us here in Scotland might actually vote in a way that might not suit the people who run the world. Their answer was pathetic. I'm biased but it really was pathetic.
"The pound is crashing, shares in Scottish companies are in a tailspin, house prices might fall. And we'll get lots and lots of stuff if we vote no".
Time to wake up rich people. There are other people out here who have another agenda.
That there are going to be financial ructions is a given. But just how much does a fall in house prices or shares prices hurt me? Bankers lost billions through greed, my wage has stagnated, they still seem to be doing quite nicely. Does this bottoming out of, what is, betting, matter to most of the people who are going to be voting? A fall in the value of the pound? Isn't that good for exporters? Aren't we supposed to be doing more of that?
Some of us here remember the 1979 referendum where we were promised the better world if we waited. What did we get? Thatcher and 18 years of a government we despised. Then a warmongering scum-bag who thought that God was talking to him in person.
I think that the most telling thing that read today was someone on disability benefit, "what the fuck have we got to lose? If we don't vote yes they'll take away whatever dignity we have left".
Ask yourself, that run on the pound, that drop in share prices, did that hurt you? And when these things are going great there? Did you cash in?
I'll say Bishop's War, this is the start of our UK fight back against the people who run this world for their own advantage.
so today...
