Mouse seems to be doing some sort of experiment. Just not sure if it's miniaturisation or giganticising (that's now a word).

Good point! Mouse, get some animals into this experiment!

And Shetland ponies!

Sounds like a plan. You need to start campaigning for 'Yes'.

Ponies are effete affectations of the bourgoisie.  Political correctness gone mad.  We want mini-dinosaurs and we cannot lie.

I'll ask everyone I know to vote Yes because I want miniature dinosaurs. (Rather than asking them to vote Yes because I believe it's an opportunity for a more progressive and socially democratic nation which better suits the needs of the people, like I've been doing just now).

I am entirely for 'Yes' for all of the reasons you said. Unfortunately you'll saddle us with a permanent Tory government. So fuck you.

That's my issue with this independence thing. Love them to vote Yes for their own benefit but it fucks us when it comes to our parliament.

Still, it'll be our own fault. Referendum for Northern independence tbh.

Yeah, sorry about that. Unfortunately, I think you'll get a Tory government regardless of what happens in Scotland.

Makes me wonder why the hell Cameron is opposing independence from the whinging Scots. Surely it would help the Tories.

Ahhhh...small enough for you?


Just need to hope SimonR does stop by for a perve.

Might personally secede and join Scotland.

You'll probably find that more effective.

Personally I'm voting yes just so that Andy Murray can be Scottish when he wins, too.

Because he needs the income from Scotland. And all his mates need the oil contracts.

Hang it from the lamp-post!  Or send it to plough (yj) on a collective farm.

Probably nothing more than speculative propaganda.

I don't think it would be tenderised significantly by hanging TBH

Don't get us started on the oil, Nigel, or we'll never be done. In the last few weeks we've been told:

• The oil is running out, and this is a disaster for the Yes campaign.
• The oil is running out, and this is a disaster for the No campaign.
• The oil isn't running out, and this is a disaster for the Yes campaign.
• The oil isn't running out, and this is a disaster for the No campaign.
• There are vast untapped oil reserves yet to be exploited and this is great for the UK.
• There are vast untapped oil reserves yet to be exploited and this is a complete and utter disaster for an independent Scotland because we won't be able to cope with it.

As far as I can see, we've got a great source of renewable energy in the form of hot air blasting from both camps.

What kenneth said.

I wouldn't mind someone explaining why they think the Pound is a UK asset and should be shared between both countries but the oil only belongs to Scotland.
