But that won't stop 'em if the deal is right. We all know they are not THAT principled. It's all going to get very messy. Of course the country will chunter along proving, as if we didn't already know it, that sleepy Holyrood is an unnecessary expense! Mind you if there is a multi question referendum will anyone understand it enough to be able to answer any of what’s put to them? Question 1 Alex Salmond, former First Minister, who will now be President of the best small country in the world (and should we have our own embassies or just rent a back room from the English?) as long as you put a cross by this question. p.s. Shall we keep the Queen as Head of State or shall we let the old firm play in the English Premiership?

Shall we keep the Queen as Head of State or shall we let the old firm play in the English Premiership?
