J o h n Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 From their website.... "The group is made up of members from various Loyalist organisations" "To this end we have begun a leafleting campaign to coincide with the Marching Season, as well as several planned public meetings with speakers from both Scotland and Ulster." Thought as much... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernscum Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I asume there will be no problem with other stadiums allowing massive YES flags in? This must have been OK'd by security. Anyone had YES banners, flags confiscated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewards were confiscating them at the turnstile saying they were "political". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde1998 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 These getting handed out too:- 1 - Pensions are as secure in an iScotland as they are in the UK. Those who have already paid into the pot can get out of the pot. In an iScotland would be able to support pensions, as we would have an extra £500 per person to play with (as we're subsidizing the rUK). 2 - Jobs would still exist. 3 - We already own 8.4% (negotiatable) of everything, so set up costs won't be bad at all. A lot of things that we'd need is already setup anyway. 4 - £ in a currency union. 5 - We would have a military that would be comparable to that of Denmark or Norway. We would also be a NATO member state, so we'll be in a shared defense force with 28 other countries. 6 - As EU citizens we can use any embassies of the other EU members in the time that we set up our own. 7 - YAY! 8 - And there aren't in the UK? 9 - No - Labour would be able to challenge the SNP as those wanting independence now wouldn't be forced into a mass pact and Labour wouldn't be controlled from London. 10 - As per point 9, the SNP may not be in power.

TartanTeddy Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Response from the crowd was quite muted. Lots of folk crumbling about the sign, some because they think the club has bigger issues and some because it was shite. Years ago I would have expected that to get a big cheer and plenty songs about Alex Salmond etc. Now either people are apathetic (except the wee bunch of dafties in the corner) or their pro Yes. Interestingly on the subway home someone had put up a bunch of Yes car stickers on the carriage windows. A few folk commented but nobody actually took them down. Lot more Bears are Yes than most folk on here would think TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hertsscot Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) Got my letter through the post again wanting more money for the board to squander or donate to Yes campaign. Not a difficult decison to make. Edited August 30, 2014 by Hertsscot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
