i don't want borders or boundaries or any of these other tired clichés I have heard of. I am voting YES for a new start for democracy where all the voices can be heard - and not only a small elite who ignore the people.
I have
always thought first past the post system of voting was a ridiculous old fashioned
system, the adversarial confrontations of right or wrong of the Westminster politics and
their short sighted policies....
I want to
see a greener, more forward looking, more open-minded, inclusive policies. I
hope the people of Scotland
will seize this one chance to run their own affairs.
The people of
Scotland never voted for the
Union in 1707 - only a tiny number of rich
nobles did (who were bribed with gold). The rich bankers are still wanting to bribe
us with false promises - DON'T believe a word they say!
Its been very
hard in the media with all the bias - ONLY one Scottish paper for
independence and all the BBC bias, both obvious and more subtle. .
There are many
stories to be written and re-written now. But I hope we are on a journey to
where we want to be as a country. I hope no matter what the vote Thursday, that
we have all learned a great deal about ourselves and can move forward with more
hope and faith in our shared future.
This debate
has brought out a sense of community and shared dreams across our country. A
strong sense of identity matters a great deal for a successful future. The eyes of the world are now on us - lets
not disappoint them by acting in fear....
but rather with confidence and hope in ourselves, our heritage and our
beautiful country...
