phart Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Neil Oliver a no? That disappoints me. his reasons are hilariously bad. " PLEASE SHARE: Historian and star of the amazing BBC series Coast has written an open letter to the people of Scotland. It is just brilliant: I will lay my cards on the table from the start: I will be voting No. I have no economic argument to make. Frankly, I am sick and tired of hearing people argue the toss about the pound, pensions and the rest. I am voting No because for me, the offering by the Yes camp lacks nobility and humanity. Even more importantly, it lacks class, far less any kind of panache. Having spent years working on the television series Coast, I think it’s fair to say I’ve seen as much of this United Kingdom of ours as anyone else living here. It’s a project that has changed my life in several ways. It has certainly caused me to fall in love with the place – the whole place. Circumnavigate these islands as I have, as often as I have, and one thing above all becomes clear: the national boundaries within are invisible and therefore meaningless. People living in a fishing town in Cornwall have more in common with the inhabitants of a fishing town in Fife than either population has with the folk of a town in the Midlands. They have a shared experience and a common history of coping with lives shaped by the sea. The coast is another country – the fifth country – and it unites us and binds us like the hem of a garment. The differences that are discernible as you travel around Britain are regional ones – made of accents and architecture, geology and geography. I am all in favour of people having the power to make decisions about their own patch: but I am utterly opposed to the idea of breaking centuries old bonds in order to make that happen."

Flat Earth Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Neil, if you just look at the planets geography there aren't any borders. None. In fact if you go back a hundred thousand years it will look exactly the same - but with no humans on it. Politics is about people. Borders are about nations. Coast is about the wee bit of land where the tide goes in and out you hairy muppet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErsatzThistle Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Really disappointed that Neil Oliver is a No. Read his History of Scotland recently and thought it was very pro-nationalist in tone, challenging old myths and emphasising Scotland's achievements over the centuries.He may not be with us anymore but at least the great Tom Weir was a Yes man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Bongo Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 For a historian Neil Oliver has clearly no read up on the Westminster Years 1979 - 2014 with his opinion that we should we working together to make things better with UKIP & BoJo waiting in the wings to get us there ...

Pool Q Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Did I not see something on the BBC in the past couple of weeks where Rory Bremner was described as a Don't Know? Remember thinking at the time that he was pretty clearly in the No camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonofoi Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Hastings is just a shouty nawbag. Jumped up Mr Angry middleclass egg chasing twat. Whinging that's he's had personal abuse cos he a no. That's nothing to do with it, it's because he's an @rsehole, plain & simple! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
