Did you notice them getting into a argument as Salmond refused to answer the question which was put to him and spouted off saying this was the first time the BBC had squabbled like this during an interview

I'm quite looking forward to a YES vote. When the Scots economy collapses and the Scottish 'punt' ain't worth a carrot I'll be able to enjoy my favourite single malt tipple for a lot less! Bonus.
I know someone who works in HMRC here...jobs will be going South.
Those that want to stay may get jobs with Salmonds new McTax dept.
Maybe's aye, maybe's naw and under what terms and conditions ???

Hope not just disbanded and if that's the case come on the yes vote
'Cos that's where most of it's business is done and that's where the Tax will go if a split*
Some companies register in Ireland 'cos the tax is lower there...but do their business (so to speak) here.
RBS tax income going to England...ironic eh?
The sh*t is only just starting to hit the fan
* update... that has just been confirmed by bbc radio Scotland economics reporter at 1612 today.
Info above updated see post
What does Salmond tell people?....
"it's just a brass plate being taken down and put up somewhere else"
What a guy.

So where is all this get up and go now ..........?
you really should consider a career in writing fiction , you have the most creative imagination .
I reckon Gordon Brown is an SNP double agent.
Who in their right mind would pick Brown to sell an economic argument?
My wife made a good comment in that the status quo is akin to a married couple.
Where the husband is the bully to a timid wife.
The wife finally has enough and says she is leaving only for the husband to say he'll change and promises her the world.
How long before he goes back to his old ways!
News flash at a recording of The Big Debate which had school pupils as the audience some of the pupils were asked to say they were No or undecided as there were too many Yes pupils.
So much for the BBC being unbiased!!
Additionally there were protests down south regarding the NHS and there has been no mention of the 9000 protestors in any BBC news because it was deemed as inflammatory to the independence debate - impartial BBC my a**e.

Except that Scotland hasn't been bullied. Having a persecution complex isn't the same thing as being an actual victim.
No but we have been lied to frequently - no actually we were bullied - bullied with the poll tax, bedroom tax, Trident; which reminds me, where's the largest store of Cold War nuclear bombs oh that'll be at Machrihanish where all the British nuclear devises were put in '89 but I've yet to find out if they were ever removed!

That analogy does not float .
If the man had an ugly bearded wife with expensive habits it would be him asking for the divorce .
