PIL 7 Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Forgive my ignorance but I thought I heard on the tv that a vote for independence was last held in the 70s , so does a no vote today mean NO or can it be rerun in the future until there's a yes vote ?

Blooded 62 Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 This is what I mean by certain factors of English causing no voters to change their minds. Good! You don't think we all went to that pathetic "Please stay" rally in Trafalgar square do you? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brigzy 1,298 Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Forgive my ignorance but I thought I heard on the tv that a vote for independence was last held in the 70s , so does a no vote today mean NO or can it be rerun in the future until there's a yes vote ? The vote in the 70s was for devolution, not independence. They can keep voting forever or until there is a yes vote, in the event of a no vote today, although Salmond has said if it is a no vote, he wouldn't want another vote for at least a "generation", however long that means.

Brigzy 1,298 Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 They could allways declare UDI, ( universal Declaration of Independence ) , just as Ian Smith did in Rhodesia. But just look how that turned out; it went from "the bread basket of Africa", to the "basket case of Africa"' Zimbabwe !!!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Brigzy That's what was said on the show I see last week with George Galloway ,Sturgeon and a couple others , meaning that's what they said back in the 70s . So going by that they mean a generation is about 35 year's lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brigzy 1,298 Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 I think a generation is generally accepted to be between 25 and 30 years, but Salmond seems to make up his own rules, so it may only be 10 years in his mind ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
