    I think the establishment of all colours has been taken by surprise by this and I think it comes back to the same problem that they had with UKIP. They have their speech writers and their token agendas which they think will fly with the sheeple, like gay marriage , the politicos are desperatly searching for issues that they can use to promote themselves and that enables them to ignore the real issues that people are concerned about.....let's be honest the Scots hate the English LOL....personally I would be glad to see the Union flag changed and get the dam german royal family out.maybe confiscate their scottish estates.

    Scottish independence: Pro-Union parties back Scotland powers timetable



    The Scottish leaders of the three main pro-Union parties have announced their
    backing for more powers for Scotland.

    Scottish Labour leader Johann Lamont, Conservative leader Ruth Davidson and
    Liberal Democrat leader Willie Rennie made a statement in Edinburgh.

    Ms Lamont said she was "delighted" to endorse the "delivery plan" set out by
    former prime minister Gordon Brown.

    The announcement came as a new poll suggested there was very little between
    the two referendum campaigns.

    The three party leaders made a statement on the steps of the Dynamic Earth
    museum in Edinburgh.

    Ms Lamont said: "It is possible to vote 'No' on 18 September and also say you
    are voting for change, for more powers for the Scottish Parliament."

    Scottish Conservative leader Ms Davidson said Gordon Brown had outlined a plan,
    which would come into effect in the result of a "No" vote, and Prime Minister David
    Cameron had endorsed it. She added: "I am delighted to stand here to welcome it too."

    Mr Rennie, the Scottish Liberal Democrat leader, said: "All three parties are coming
    together as this is so important."

    BBC Scotland's political correspondent Tim Reid said he understood the three
    pro-Union parties were to sign up to a pledge that a new Scotland Act - devolving
    further powers in the event of a "No" vote - would be included in the first Queen's
    Speech after the 2015 General Election.

    The latest TNS poll showed that of all the adults surveyed, 39% were backing a
    "No" vote, 38% a "Yes" vote and 23% were undecided.

    Of those who said they were sure to vote, the "Yes" and "No" camps were neck a
    nd neck at 41% with 18% undecided.

    Yes Scotland described the poll as "another breakthrough" while Better Together
    said it showed there was "no room for a protest vote".

    The poll of 990 people was conducted between 27 August and 4 September.

    Scottish Independence will be won by a landslide



    "Published on 8 Sep 2014
    The artist taxi driver"

    Look at George Osborne, the architect of permanent austerity. Scotland can have whatever it wants if it votes NO - they have always spoken with forked tongue. Next, they're gonna wheel out the Queen and Tony Blair.

    All the begging, all the lying, will not get in the way of Scotland. Scotland will show England, Ireland and Wales that there is another way.

    Published on 9 Sep 2014


    The decision of party leaders to miss Wednesday's prime minister's
    questions session was "pretty dramatic and shows just how concerned
    they are" says the BBC's political editor.

    Nick Robinson said there was a "degree of anxiety" that voters in
    Scotland were about vote "to end Britain as we know it".

    David Cameron and Ed Miliband are due to head to Scotland to
    campaign on the referendum.

    I'm sure someone has said it already but I'll say it anyway;
    don't use machines to count the votes. In the US machines were rigged to sway the results.

    Scotland, don't let that happen. Say no to machine counts.
    Just to ease minds here. The vote counts will be carried out manually. not electronically. The voting boxes will be sealed and monitored closely. As will the vehicles carrying the votes to the counting stations. Escorted and guarded at all times.

    The Queen may not be amused , but just like in the Fuedal days of Edward 1 and
    Robert the Bruce, She has lands and titles in Scotland as well as England and most
    of the Commonwealth, and her Grandson already has an heir and has just
    announced a 'spare' on the way. Unlike her son Charles match with Diana,
    Wills and Kate seem very much in love ........

    Duchess of Cambridge pregnant: TUC leader Frances O’Grady speech on class system cut off by royal baby newsflash

    Duchess of Cambridge pregnant: TUC leader Frances O’Grady speech on class system cut off by royal baby newsflash




    ‘Live television coverage of a speech by Frances O’Grady, General Secretary of the
    TUC, was cut off this morning minutes after she had warned of a return to
    a “Downton Abbey” society – for a newsflash announcing that the Duchess of
    Cambridge is expecting her second child.

    The second royal pregnancy was deemed to be so important that nothing more was
    heard of Ms O’Grady’s speech, in which she expanded on her theme that the British
    class system is being reinvented, as the gap between rich and poor widens.’

    People watching the speech on the BBC’s news channel heard her say: "Are we
    going to settle for a nastier and poorer Britain - a Downton Abbey-style society, in
    which the living standards of the vast majority are sacrificed to protect the high
    living of the well-to-do?”

    But they missed the bit where she went on to warn against returning to a class
    system like the one described in Evelyn Waugh’s postwar novel, Brideshead
    Revisited.

    After discovering that only half the speech had been covered, a senior TUC official
    remarked: “Good luck to the Duchess of Cambridge, but she would still have been
    pregnant when Frances finished speaking.”

    Scottish independence: Monarch 'above politics', Buckingham Palace says



    The Queen holding an audience with Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond in Edinburgh in July

    Any suggestion that the Queen would wish to influence the Scottish referendum campaign is "categorically wrong",
    Buckingham Palace has said.

    The statement follows press reports that Her Majesty was concerned about the prospect of Scottish independence.

    It also follows comments from First Minister Alex Salmond, who said the Queen "will be proud" to be the monarch
    of an independent Scotland.

    The Palace insisted the referendum was "a matter for the people of Scotland".

    A spokesman said: "The sovereign's constitutional impartiality is an established principle of our democracy and one
    which the Queen has demonstrated throughout her reign.

    "As such the monarch is above politics and those in political office have a duty to ensure that this remains the case.

    "Any suggestion that the Queen would wish to influence the outcome of the current referendum campaign is categorically wrong.

    "Her Majesty is firmly of the view that this is a matter for the people of Scotland."

    The BBC's royal correspondent Peter Hunt said he understands that Buckingham Palace issued its statement in response
    to calls for the Queen to speak out in favour of the union and not in response to Mr Salmond's remarks.

    Balmoral audience

    SNP leader Mr Salmond said he had an audience with the Queen at Balmoral Castle two weeks ago but would not say
    what was discussed.

    He dismissed press reports that Her Majesty was concerned about the prospect of Scottish independence.

    "I want the Queen as head of state, as Queen of Scots of an independent Scotland, as her ancestors were," he said.

    Mr Salmond was speaking at a photocall outside St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh.

    He said: "I think Her Majesty the Queen, who has seen so many events in the course of her long reign, will be proud
    to be Queen of Scots, and indeed we would be proud to have her as monarch of this land."

    The first minister said he thought the statement released by Buckingham Palace regarding the Queen's neutrality was
    "a perfectly satisfactory and perfectly sensible" response to the press rumours about her concern.

    Most of the banks throughout the world are insolvent, hanging by a thread on the debt repayments. Westmonster's austerity is the salvation of banks.

    There are questions Mark wants Scotland to ask of the three stooges, which will most certainly lead to a landslide YES whereby Scotland gives itself a future.

    We have created our own roadshow. It's gonna scare the daylights out of Westmonster. Say NO and you will be getting back the same bullsh*t. They're scared of their own jobs and portfolios, saying that there is no contingency plan for a YES vote, the most dangerous thing of all being HOPE.

    I have decided I want to keep the 'jocks' in the UK , otherwise
    we are f......, with the prospect of Tory dominance in England !!!

    I know you could turn it around and say Scotland will never
    have a 'Tory' government again...( Which sounds good, and
    could be the clincher). But That's selfish...LOL

    UKIP may take some conservative seats, but in the long run
    they are conservatives, so its not looking to good down
    here. I might have to move to Scotland...LOL


    Not sure how sincere this plea from the heart is , considering the above..

    Today ALL fear mongering NWO leaders of Westminster cancelled all appointments and headed to Scotland to try and talk Scotland out of voting YES.

    For the first time the three of them, Ed, David and Auld Nick mentioned the heart. It was a tactic, but they do not understand what the heart is. I am hoping that next week, On the 18th they will understand what the heart truly is.

    90% of my English friend who are resident here in Scotland are voting Yes.

    This is not about separating ourselves from our English, Welsh or Irish neighbours, but moving away from a corrupt and unfair system.
    To my surprise and great delight around 3 million souls in Scotland have awakened this past few weeks and days. They see that the system is corrupt and now have the opportunity to change the system. Which in turn will change ALL systems.

    Today it is on a knives edge. 50/50, It could go either way.

    A request to Avalonian's, Let us forget about YES and NO. But can i ask you all to be with Scotland in spirit over this next week. That Scotland chooses to decide for the betterment and highest good of all humanity.

    That should do it.
    When you express from a fearful heart in the now moment, You create a fearful future.
    When you express from a loving heart in the now moment, You create a loving future.
