Salmond? Yes I'll give you that.

I've provided the newspaper articles and the Scottish Government quotes that show I'm not lying. Salmond has been targeting major international companies like Amazon, courting them with pledges of cheap Corporation Tax deals in the hope that Scotland can be the new Luxembourg in being the main hidey hole for tax evasion. Yet today, in a rather astonishing about turn, he tells Nick Robinson that none of that matters and that HQ's have no bearing on where Corporate Tax is paid.

The man is a corrupt liar and in many ways I pity those who have been taken in by him.

Sorry, tony... :unsure:

What's your point?

That English based people will make decisions to suit themselves?

A list of names and jobs and affiliations adds decreasingly little to the precious little that passes for debate on this dreich thread...

It stinks Buddie. It is exactly that type of corrupt politics that we need to get away from. .

I'm not sure of your point. What Salmond told Nick Robinson about corporation tax was essentially true. Even if RBS is HQ'ed in London it would still pay Scottish corporation tax on profits it makes in Scotland because it has offices and branches here.

Amazon pay UK corporation tax and has a London head office, what they do is for internet sales, claim they happen in another EU country (Luxembourg) and pay tax there.

These people together with the other bankers, Westminster, millionaires and even the billionaire that Galloway got all moist about are serving their own self interest, not the voters as they claim.

Are bankers, millionaires and billionaires claiming they are serving the voters? bangin.gif

I wouldn't blame anyone for looking after their own interests. That's what I'll be doing next Thursday when I vote No. I'll be voting for the option that I think is best for me and for my children.

I keep hearing the word poverty mentioned

as ive mentioned before, unlike the middle class socialists on this thread, im in a good position to discuss this

i met my wife when we were 16. She is from a single parent family which survived exclusively on benefits. My mother in law has lived on benefits for the past 40 years

neither would describe themselves as having been in poverty. I don't recall ever thinking my future wife to be was a child living in poverty.

its nonsense

my mother in law is able to save up and go on holiday to turkey every year

she doesn't need to use a food bank. She is clinically obese.

nobody in Scotland would have had a lower income than them

poverty in Scotland is a myth

Those people are Capitalists.

They don't care about nationalities or, ultimately, about country borders.

Whatever the vote they'll be ok... Better than that - divide and rule will have worked again, if there's a yes-vote.

The yes-men are being suckered into abandoning solidarity with people on the same island in the same shit-heap. It's an embarrassment. :(

Just picked up and dropped off an assumed ' deprived guy '

I'm assuming because he's in his mid 20's and has told me he's never worked a day in his life.

Well, his Taxi from Cardonald to McDonalds Govan wait and return cost him a tenner.

He spent 22 quid at the Drive Thru to feed his family.

Good luck to him.

Scotland's thriving.

aye it's thriving with food banks dodgy loan companies and get a few bob for every kg of cloths to feed yourself. That many jobs for our young people. Aye we

are thriving
