Re: Do the Scots REALLY want Independance?

This is exactly what politics is about. It isn't about what those in power can do to make the man in the street better off/have a better life....it is about......
Divide and rule!
Set the people against one another and while they are all arguing the toss politicians can do what the heck the like....because the man in the street is too busy to notice what is going on.

Yes, I know this is a cynical view...but it is borne of experience of life...politicians and elections.
However we vote, the b*stards will still get in...life will be no better for any of us...except those who pull the strings in Westminster.....they will have it cushy as usual.
