The_Kincardine Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 A Scotsman with an English accent, there is no bloody excuse for that! Have one of my very occasional Helens. Last time I looked this wasn't about Scots vs English accents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SodjesSixteenIncher Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Someone screen scrap the BBC News page just now "Heated debated" headline. Only one of the sent in reactions visible on that page, saying Salmond lost. Desperate stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Good stuff, the £ it is then. Darling fucked up massively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casual Bystander Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Has there been a report from the rUK viewers on what they thought? I'd be surprised if a few of them weren't angry at Eyebrows McGee failing so badly at defending the union side considering the STV debate was not watched by many outside Scotland.

Mastermind Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Easy win for Salmond this time round, Darling absolutely terrible. Exact opposite of last time round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I'm guessing Salmond won? Blamo! a technical k.o. Although the guy refereeing tonight was fucking useless. He kept letting Darling and Salmond squabble and talk over each other. Very annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orlandoblue Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Good stuff, the £ it is then. Darling fucked up massively. Is it ? In or out of a currency union ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweeperDee Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Is it ? In or out of a currency union ? Darling did say we can use the £. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confidemus Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Oooft. Just oooft. Salmond was as measured and on his game in this debate as he was off it in the last one. Darling had nothing when the wheels came off his Plan B bus. A lot of finger jabbing, stuttering and generalisations about "pooling resources" and "strength of the union". That was a fucking pounding. At points I was giggling like a schoolkid. Darling was deliciously dreadful. Hamilton V Morton levels of pure one sidedness. You can tell how good it was by how quiet the Britnats are here tonight. Pleasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casual Bystander Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 How much donwe expect the polls to swing based on tonight then? Not enough to make a real dent in the polls, imo, but then I don't believe the polls reflect public opinion. I am still interested to know why Eyebrows McGee called one of the studio audience "Brian", when as far as I know he didn't give his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orlandoblue Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Darling did say we can use the £. He won't ever have said we can't. The currency question wasn't cleared up at all tonight. Watch it back if you don't agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Bairn Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I didn't see the debate as I was otherwise engaged but the sense I'm getting from people I trust on social media was that tonight could be the beginning of the end for the union. Definitely think I spoke too soon calling it over three weeks ago and it's game on now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuggie_Murray7 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 That closing speech from Darling. Jeezo. Clearly pre written. He questioned Salmond on key points and got answers....then STILL reads the pre written statement claiming Salmond didn't give any answers. Just an absolute shitemare for Darling from start to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I don't think it will win that many undecided round unfortunately - but in terms of a debate it was an absolute landslide. Darling was a quivering wreck at certain points. STV just now chief.
