Now what I find intriguing is that as a nation, nobody seemed to ask the detailed question about what FFA means in reality yet supported the rallying call to keep oil revenues and taxes. End Quote.



I know what " S.F.A." means , and that is precisely what anyone not of the same ilk as Cameron and his cronies will get from another 5 years of food banks, zero hours contracts , benefit cuts for the most needy, and a good bloody kicking when they are down, for the pensioners and disabled this time around  !!  " SWEET F*%K ALL "  !!

Thank you for that insightful commentary Gordon, but you didn't really answer my question regarding the multi billion black hole that will arise from the plans laid down by the SNP. but maybe like Ms. sturgeon, it's better to say nothing?

[Highlander]

The SNP's referendum calculations were based on the oil price being £113 per barrel. It is now £ 59.00.

[Rimms]

So like I said, the whole economic argument is flawed yet nobody picked it up. Scary really

I hope and believe that the SNP success was more an attempt to stop the Conservatives than a vote for a further referendum.

[Rimms]

From what I understand Brenda, a further referendum trying to reverse the recent and overwhelming No Vote was never part of the SNP manifesto, where as this seemingly massively flawed financial plan was at the heart of their success. I don't get it, do you?

[Highlander]

Sorry folks - that was me posting under Brenda's name.

[Highlander]

No Rimms I don't and neither did 55 % of the voters last September.

If there is another referendum it will be scandalous. It will prove that the SNP lied to the Scottish people.

My problem with Nicola Sturgeon is that I cannot take her seriously after hearing her described as the third Krankie.
