I am getting totally fed up with these YES signs everywhere. There is some old geezer and his son putting massive signs up outside my house.

When he puts them up on a public lamppost, who do they belong to?
What happens if I take them down?

The worst of it is, they have vans of people going around removing the Better Together signs.

    Who cares? Much more urgent is that I've just heard Luton Airport has been evacuated. Quick, start a thread, you could be first :o;-)

    When you go into a voting station I've heard that if you hover your pencil above the 'No' box a laser comes out of the floor and points at your privates!


    LOL! Don't give them any ideas....

    Doubt that's really Scotland. No-one's got a dram in their hand...

    I noticed it spray painted on a pub yesterday. Not exciting news I know but just thought I'd add it here :p

    They are intimidating. They have taken the Saltire for their own, which it is not. They rip down signs and deface Better Together signs with SCUM spray painted on them.

    They give Scots a bad name.

    It's the fallacy of relative privation.

    Meanwhile I bet some of the more extreme Yessies believe this is going to be their own version of the Arab Spring (Highland Spring?).

    No but intimidation is wrong, as is Alex Salmond now saying the Queen supports independence when he knows full well she cannot comment personally.

    There is no way she supports independence. She would have supported Diana marrying Dodi more than a Scottish Independence vote. The electorate must be stupid if they believe that rhetoric. Then again....

    Thats what they are discussing now on the radio his comments and if constitutionally she could respond if she wanted to or if she should even if able as she has always been very good at remaining neutral , personally I think she should say nothing even if allowed.

    Wikipedia also calls it "appeal to worse problems" for people who don't have a big word list in their head.

    Who believes a word this madman has to say? He can speak with authority for our Regent but is not able to say what his thoughts are on Scotland joining the Euro. Newsflash for all you YES voters - Scotland WILL be joining the Euro if you vote Yes. That is a condition of entry to the EU.

    Can someone answer me the question - who do these signs belong to once they have been put on a public lamppost?
