[quote=scribz] I won't cut my grievances with the westminister state. I'm very happy with the movement on both yes and no sides to want more autonomy for scotland, and i'm more than happy about Westminister also equally seeing that scotland has less effect on english laws, as that's not fair. You're extremely bitter about all of this for entirely personal reasons, and it's ugly. [/quote] I'm bitter? I'm not the one issuing warnings and threats. Scribz, I just posted talking about how the fractures between Yes and No need to be healed so that Scotland can continue forward, continue with this incredible public participation in politics, and make positive changes for itself. I condemned holding onto grievances which won't help to heal those fractures, but I agreed with you on all other points. And I regret that the leader of the opposite party has resigned and acknowledge his political talent, his contribution to this country which I am very proud of too. I think that's less bitter a reaction than still holding those grudges, which will only hold negotiations back and make finding a positive solution for everyone more difficult. :/ If it seemed as if I was being bitter, I wasn't. As I said, the current status quo is a broken system that needs to be fixed. Believe me, the current government's decisions, and Westminster's decisions in the past, have had extremely negative effects on my life and on others', and I have my own problems with the current system for that. But I also believe that now is the most malleable time for change in my lifetime, and possibly for the remainder of my lifetime too - and that holding grudges and anger close to heart will only serve to fracture the Scottish population within itself, and the British population as a whole, and will mean that negotiations focus on each state trying to screw the others and look after itself rather than us all working together to make a better situation for everyone. People have to come to the table open, and people have to stay politically involved - that is what I believe and what I expressed, and I don't see any bitterness in that. Perhaps I expressed myself poorly before.
