Listening to Salmond on the news - his displays of sham piety and sanctimoniousness are wearing a bit thin now. His constant calumny of Westminster and the irritating self-inference of the sanctimony of the Scottish parliament betrays his motives to the British people as well as the Scots.
He is ONLY interested in causing division and strife between a united people and his personal fantasy of an independent and prosperous Scotland will never materialise with him at the helm. The insinuation that all of Westminster are doing their very best to undermine the Scottish voice is as malicious as it is untrue.
Many Scots realise that there are actually many people in England and the rest of the UK who want the best for Scotland and I'm sure many Scots would want Westminster to do it's best for us,but with such focused and malicious propaganda coming out of Alex Salmond's mouth it is necessary to side step such provocations and judge the issue correctly and carefully on independent information.

I have nothing. Men fight for me because if they do not, I throw them off my land and I starve their wives and their children. Those men who bled the ground red at Falkirk, they fought for William Wallace, and he fights for something that I never had. And I took it from him, when I betrayed him. I saw it in his face on the battlefield and it's tearing me apart.

I'm English btw.
He might be a bully, like all men who want to impose their will on other men (politicians), but that's beside the point when it comes to self determination. Both sides of the debate will use the most cynical tactics possible to win. That's life.
I support Scottish Independence. I as an individual don't think the government has any right to determine what I can and cannot do, or confiscate my property in the form of taxes. Not so long as I'm prepared to face the consequences of living as a grown up.
Scotland can and should have a choice in the matter of their own freedom, and so should I.
