Of course not! I was just highlighting the positive discrimination that the (particularly English based) media use. To take a "random" three teenagers from Lanarkshire & come up with the combination above takes some doing. Public-funded bodies are notorious for it in their marketing brochures. - take a look at any uni prospectus for example & you will almost always have people from minority groups, which, is not representative of the local demographic in THIS part of the world.

Not at all - just making an observation. In the same way that Newsnight (English version) sent a reporter to "Scotchland" & interviewed 3 local youngsters. 1 was a typical ABC1 - white girl 1 was black & 1 was of Asian descent Not that I have a problem whatsoever with ANY of them, but, the tv team must've tried hard to get a cross-mix like that in Motherwell. Not impossible, but, a damn sight easier in Nottingham or Birmingham to do that!

I did notice - the majority had "non-Scottish" accents.

Was quite disappointing to be honest! Salmond was (by HIS standards) a bit disappointing, but, whilst he didn't gain much ground - equally, he didn't lose any. As we were chaps!

It's called "advice!" - you could sure do with some!

I used the word "board - not "thread" - Find the post / Click quote & away you go. C'mon let's see it!

Can you quote those posts please? I don't think I have even seen Babcock mentioned on this board. (Cock right enough....) Show me my posts you find offensive?

Perhaps I liked the substance of the posts? - (does not mean I condone personal insults!) However, it is evident that yourself is over eager to do just that! So, you are reduced to calling potential YES voters Natsis? At least Dickson makes an attempt at an arguement rather than resorting to personal / distasteful abuse, which, it seems is the only tactic YOU (singular) seem to be able to do. Whilst in a post above, expressed your disdain at the movement of the same name? Dearie-me you really are a confused girl / boy! When do the schools go back???

Where was this "abuse?" When did I refer to anyones weight? Where did I refer to "padded cells" You have called ME at Natsi - yet suggest it is a term you despise? I have no problem with ANYONE having a different opinion to myself. I do have a problem with the abuse in the post above. I am not a thug, and it is the fact that I am tolerant of "people less well off than myself" that I want to help fix the horrible situation this wealthy country has found itself in! http://www.paisley.org.uk/2013/04/paisley-food-bank-information/

& yet you are willing to refer to Democratic Scots as "natsis" ? TAKE A LOOK AT YOURSELF!

Bunkum!!

Sir, Would you care to explain your choice of wording? & also your reasoning behind your decision to change your avatar to its current format? I would be interested to hear! PM if required - however it is most offensive!

How would THAT rant persuade ANYONE to vote "No" ??? I will ask you AGAIN to stop referring to "Natsis" - Is THAT public enough for you?

That's another thing I can't get my head round! - surely there are extra policing costs cos there are more punters? thus the pro-rata costs should go DOWN? 10/15 years ago it was a fair cop as it was supply / demand - changed days now though! Can't believe I am sticking up for OF fannies - but fair=fair

Don't MOST workmen wear yellow vests with a wite hat??

Hoi Dickson You been to Inverclyde recently? http://www.greenocktelegraph.co.uk/news/portglasgow/articles/2014/07/30/505409-port-councillor-branded-a-lsquonazirsquo-on-campaign-trail/

Forum abuse report sent! (RE: SD not northendsaint BTW)

That's 3/4 of Dicksons posts today refer to "Salmond" Has he not grasped the fact that Mr Salmonds name is not on the ballot paper?

He was "caught in a trap"

You do know that seaso........

Took 13/8 minus two - looking good!

Never mind that! Who is he?

Who is the trialist then?

Depends on your odds!

YES please!!!
