About to sail off on a cruise today from Newcastle. There allegedly will be a UKIP group on board.
Hope to fuck these two cretans ain’t on board as well..
Got my saltire reashirt at the ready.
Oops should be teashirt.
V good Mr.Cairns. ????
Happy feet and Lenny the liar can rearrange all day long, but they know their union and authority has been holed below the water line. Let them both drown in a sea of shit.Oh sorry , superb as ever Mr C.
They are also planning to blame the iceberg when it all goes wrong!
Only if you’ve spilled tea down it Ian ๐
We are cast adrift on a rudderless ship of fools and heading straight for the rocks.
There… Just about sums it up.
Worst of all, we had the chance to jump ship two years ago.
Thanks a lot ‘Nawbags’!
Scottish independence is the force that will sink the โunsinkableโ Britannic…Unleash the Scotberg!
Chris on the ball as always. We are on a sinking ship while the UK politicians argue over the deckchairs.
I’m just heading off to take my hat for a walk in Edinburgh. I’m hoping to bump into a few pals there.
If only they were the only folks on board! Another great cartoon, your worth your holidays.
Good luck and best wishes to all marching today in Edinburgh.
We were going, unfortunately the auld man hurt his back gardening and now we canny go. The Pug is pretty upset, he was looking forward to getting hoarse barking.
Can you hear the four seasons playing on the poop deck, rearrange dem chairs all you like Leonard, you’re going down ssson, you too May.
Last night was excellent fun in the big city.
Welcome to Edinburgh.
It’s gig day! ๐
Brilliant as always Mr C.
Good luck to all on todayโs rally, sadly Iโm stuck in Qatar, but Iโll be back by the end of the year to join the fun!
The dream shall never die.
The two loungers. Lying scroungers. continue the dirty dancing, sanctioning and starving people. Ignoring the wishes of it’s citizens, Two foots right. Non left. Do not make it right. Two wrongs do not make it right. Teamed up and tanking. Two pees in a pod of intolerance. A low pool chain. Drowning in a sea of plenty. Tanking in totally empty rhetoric,
Off to catch the train at Queen Street & find masel in a helluva good mood! ๐
Thanks to all the marchers and the voters. Great historical occasion of intent. Your vote and support is truly important. Thanks a billion. Thanks again Rev Stu etc.
Nice one Chris.
Enjoy the Edinburgh March to all who attend.Looks like a lovely day out guaranteed.
As usual working Saturday so will be trapped inside trying to scrape a living servicing mostly yoons.
Great fun. Not ๐
Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic is not the only futile and tragic end to arrogance.
Try being the supposed keeper of the soul of a nation and systematically poisoning it.
HES is looking for an iceberg.
Just leaving for Edinburgh.
Lets hope there is a huge turnout.
Lets show these Unionist bsstards we mean business.
Talking to a Rangers colleague complaining yesterday about the snp stealing the saltire as he stood with his BritUnion flag mug. Said the logo for the snp is not white or blue unlike the tories emblem using a corner of the RUK flag. Pointing out his mug and the fact old firm supporters representing Scotland fly foreign flags. His response “tradition”.
On my way to Edinburgh nipped in to a Tesco Express. Not one National on sale. Left my crisps etc on the counter.
It would appear then that Mr. Corbyn and his violin have already given up the ghost and jumped to his fate, leaving his stooge to it.
All the very very best to all today.
…on my way ๐
Bedecked, bedevilled, beyond redemption.

Do you think you will be able to find your few pals among all the 10s of thousands of others taking their hats for a walk in Edinburgh, X Sticks?
Oh! Silly me – of course you will – your pals will be the ones with the Saltires and Wings hats.
We’re just setting off for the family stroll around Holyrood!! Feeling very positive.
Weather looking Ok, hope we give the Britnats something to think about.
To all those going on the AUOB march in Edinburgh, have a Great Day!
Enjoy your daunder in the sun! ?
@Robert
Haha, I don’t think I’ll have any trouble fin9pals today Robert. Rumours are there are quite a few of them in Edinburgh today!
Ship of fools indeed Mr Cairns, and there are plenty here in Scotland only too willing to go down with the fools.
I’m seeing lots of happy smiley folks all over social media heading for Edinburgh. Hubby is there already and hopes to meet as many Wingers as possible. I’m there in spirit and wishing you all a great day.
Watch the Edinburgh march here from 1pm

Morning links on previous thread.
The irony for the HES is that by their posturing claim to be non political they have effectively aligned themselves with the unionist cause and No movement. They will now presumably only have pro-union members, well I suppose they might now hoping to receive a donation from SIU.
If they think they have struck a point for balance then I would suggest they look at the MSM headlines and decide if they appear balanced to 50% of Scotland. We’ve seen the photos of HES sites being used for unionist events.
Those naughty independentistas!

Wishing all the folks attending the march a grand day out. ๐
The Toeies are promising deck chair cushions
After the ice berg strikes and Labour will Nationalise
Ice bergs at some point in the future!
SNP are on the Life Boat with the course plotted
To a very nice tropical island with friendly neighbours.
Ruth Davidson telling total lies again,
The Line manager Ref would have been employed by a local council (Tory/unionist?)
Local authorities are supposed to have been implementing the Scottish Gov education policies. The unionists councils do not.
The failure of Ruth Davidson to listen. Deliberately telling lies. She should keep her mouth shut. Telling a lie about a situation deliberately caused by the Party she is a ‘leader’. A leadership failure.
A total waste of space.
Any child living in poverty in Scotland is as a result of Labour/unionist policies. The Labour/unionist policy to block powers being devolved to the Scottish Gov. Leonard is the problem. Increasing child poverty in Scotland/UK. He is the problem. He is a numpties bastard.
They can’t count or read a balance sheet. A distaste. Waste of space.
Absolute poverty is 9% Relative poverty 18% 1 in ten children in absolute poverty. Not 1 in 4.
On train now. ETA 13.00. Hope to meet fellow Wingers and other Scottish people. All we need now is a crossed contrail on the blue above. First Athelstainford. Now Edinburgh!
Visiting a small island in the pretty impoverished Maldives,
Population just over 300.
Very happy to report education for all is free, even University places,
and All Children have a Tablet from the government to negate the use
Of paper books and writing paper.
The Tablets are charged with solar power.
Makes you wonder when the Wrong and Unable English
Government might become able to copy Scotland and the
Maldives in providing free University places when they still
Have young women missing 1 week in 4 of their education
Due to poverty?
Hi from Tassie
Will be on the Edinburgh march in spirit!
Lol, you have to hand it the the BBC, the BBC News website still leading with ‘Indyref2 rally ban ‘remains in force’
Can you imagine paying these clowns your money.
If it wasn’t for the Internet they would be telling us no one was there. ๐

You’d almost think the intent of HES was to turn a peaceful demonstration into an act of rebellion.
Add to which there will always be a question as to how their protests have affected the turn out. Who knows there might be an element of geritupye resulting in a larger turnout.
Fair to say I think that the BBC is doing it’s bit to discourage attendance at the march.
The Scots are taking their country back.
Makes you Proud.
3 and still the march continues!
My sister is on the march and didn’t get off Johnston Terrace until 2.40pm and there were still plenty behind them. There bus back leaves at 4 so they might not even get to Holyrood.
I’m thinking 80-100k.
Just been watching the fantastic sight of 100,000 marchers ( according to someone listening to police estimates )
Sorry I wasn’t there , particularly as I can see those in wheelchairs , those with walking aids doing their bit.And now i’m feeling sorry for myself.
It looked fantastic , so a big thank you to the boys on Live stream.
pipinghot
I doubt that many on the march tune into BBC news these days. Different news streams have been created since the start of the 2014 referendum.
Someone at the March has just tweeted that Police say about 100k! If that’s true, it’s just incredible.
AUOB said during week, their estimate was 50k.
Glasgow in May was huge and every march thereafter well attended and received.
This however? This is beyond impressive. So gutted I couldn’t be there today.
Valerie , that’ll be reported as ‘ several hundreds’ or ‘More than a thousand marched in Edinburgh’ or some equally disgusting wee lie by our wondrous media.
Just watched Tommy Shepherd who gave a superb speech and a lovely lady from the Basque country.
The success of the march is great, but it does give Nicola Sturgeon a bit of a conundrum: In instead of being in the position of petitioning Westminster for a referendum, doesn’t she have to step it up, for example by putting UDI in the next SNP manifesto?

BBC Scotland reports the March,but VERY QUICKLY changes on to permission,etc.,etc……

It’s called diversion. ๐
BBC? You’ve been rumbled.
Wow, just wow, feel the tears, kinda filling up with pride just watching the march. So sorry I couldn’t be there today, gutted about that, but
big shout out to all you folk on the march WELL DONE, and thank you from the botton of my auld heart.
Took us three hours to walk length of royal mile. Police estimates of 100k sound reasonable
Anyone know what the largest ever march to date in Scotland was?
Don’t think Poll Tax or Iraq War marches exceeded 100k.
Jinkies!
link to twitter.com
Macart that is lovely!
Glasgow Feb 2003, Stop the War had 100k by organisers’ estimate, but 50k police estimate.
If police are saying 100k does that make this the biggest March ever in Scotland?
Did thing HES protesteth too much. The Police Scotland statement was a simple one of only reading the Riot Act if circumstances called for it. The fact they felt it necessary to point out the reality of the situation to HES is a question for another day.
The other question is how the Queen’s title to Holyrood Park derives. Is it personal or is it like the Crown and other regalia of Scotland so property of the office.
If the latter then HES’s position is closer to “Oy you, get off your own land”
NO DEMAND FOR INDYREF IN SCOTLAND????????
Estimates of numbers canโt be far off. We got to Holyrood about 2pm, were quite near the front.
Had to leave early and were walking back up the mile about 2.50 and they were still coming down in droves as far as the eye could see. Met a guy in Costa who said estimate was 125,000.
Even if thatโs greatly exaggerated itโs made my heart sing.
Itโs coming and soon.
Yep! It seems to be true that the police estimate is around 100,000. I’ve heard it quoted as being police estimate at least from three different sources and all of them saying it is Police Scotland estimate.
No one so far has quoted any other guesstimates. Anyway these figures must actually be wrong because Ruth Davidson, that Dick, something or other and Wee Willie somebody or other keeps telling everyone that no one in Scotland wants a second referendum.
Maybe it is just a coincidence that around 100,000 folk all with Saltires and Rampant Lion banners and more than a few with Catalan Flags, Welsh Dragons and such like all just happened to fancy a wee dander doon the Royal Mile an ower the Queen’s Park at the same time.
Just back and couldn’t even begin to estimate numbers, I’d already been in the park over and hour and there were still more coming than were in front of me, they were all over the hills right to the top and still moving in
It was Big Biig Biiig! Huuuge!
Cafes were full, pubs were full, everywhere was full and even the tourists joined in, it was like Delhi (India) on market day
Scotland must be the most peaceful friendliest nation on the face of the earth (when we’re in a good mood that is)
We joined the queue at 12:30 and at 14:30 we started the march. I had 23,566 in the sweepie
Just sitting down with a pint now. The March was mahoosive.
Couldn’t move down Johnston Terrace past Lawmmarket so was near front of march when it started. Got to Lawmmarket and front of march past At Giles and most of crowd on Johnston Terrace hadn’t started to move. Wow!
Train was five minutes late. Climbed the steps (Fleshmarket Close) and marchers were already filling High Street at 13.15. Met a WoS flagman from Aberdeen and then later Dr Craig Dalziel.
Walked back and caught end of marchers at 15.15. Had a quick beer and dram in the Halfway House and train back at 15.50.
Good day out. Bikers were seriously impressive.
All the Best
Robert Peffers Even if 100 000 marched that would still be 1.5 million less than the 1.6 million Scots who voted Yes in 2014, getting less than 10% of 2014 Yes voters to a march on a Saturday afternoon is hardly a miracle. Come back to me when you get more pro independence supporters on a march than the 2 million Scots who voted No to independence and to stay in the UK in 2014!
Hyufd. so why no mention of the indy march in Edinburgh on the 17.20 bbc news here in england.wonder what they are terrified of?
Firstly, massive thanks to the stewards and folk from AUOB who made this march happen. Well, well done. And well done for standing up for plain old common sense against the seriously deranged jobsworths at HES.
Secondly, what a day!! I was still on Castle terrace when people were getting into holyrood.
And to make it even better, the weather could not have been better. It was a perfect day, full of happy independence supporters. The sun was shining, but just enough breeze to keep the saltires flying. The British Nationalists say their is no desire for independence, well I think they just might be lying (as usual).
This was a phenomenal independence march, the park was the busiest I have seen, with Saltires all across the radical road and up the crags too. An enormous number of people.
I have been on all the Edinburgh indy marches, and this is by some margin bigger than any.
What a day, what a day. Independence IS COMING. SOON. British Nationalists should be afraid, very afraid.
Great day by all accounts folks.
Poor old Unionists more flags than protesters, 20 out of their supposed 2M. lol
HYFUD – I smell your fear.
Well done to the 100,000 plus folk at Edinburgh.
Is this guy seriously this stupid. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
I would like to thank livestream for the coverage on behalf of the few who could not attend.
The people of Scotland gave out the message. YES
Lol, the unionist defence of the union reduced to ‘it was never 100k’. Ah well, we might as well just all pack up and give up then. ๐ ๐ ๐
And no mention of the indy march on the 17.30 itv news here in england. They truly are sh****ng themselves. Oh its definitely coming.
NO coverage on UK media of 100k march. US supreme court more โsexyโ. No bias there LOL.
Next demo through the centre of London? Bringing the cause to the smug imperial centre, they could not ignore that. The โEnglishโ establishment needs a sharp kick up the rectum.
Nicola..time to announce there WILL be a referendum and at a time of OUR choosing and on OUR terms; also time for radical thinking.
Well if you add 100,000 today to Glasgows 95,000, to Dumfries 15,000 to Stirling 25,000 and Dundee and on and on not counting the folks who can’t march either because they’re working or disabled or too elderly to take part, Oooh or teenagers who have yet to vote next time around…..quite a lot of people really in Scotland who are all deluded (NOT)
One wonders what and why a lonely man from Epping with his internet details all over the web thinks he’s doing interfering in the democracy of a country that is foreign to him and in which he doesn’t even speak the primary language
I myself speak three languages the second of which is English because the first would be indecipherable to the unlearned ear of someone from Epping or indeed most of England which most English folk who live in Scotland would be able to tell our little Epping cunning liguist who is still looking for love (in all the wrong places)
Thousands marched, millions didnยดt they will say.
Aye maybe, but of the millions who didnยดt, millions support independence.
The whole march took over 2 hour ad 10 minutes to pass the Tron Kirk. OK there wa the odd break to allow traffic to flow. Once the march had passed off (including letting people cross the road through it [deffo not an OO parade] I strolled up to the mercat cross to see the roughly 18 britants pack up their gear into cases ad padlock them to a drain pipe wish I had brought my vile cybernat bolt cutters along a well) Width of the parade roughly 15 people taking 6s to pass a point is 150 a minute and , even allowing for 40 minutes not moving due to traffic(overestimate imo) there were well over 100k there.
HYFUD: Had any “likes” online today?

Never mind ,Did your sister have to go with you to your graduation dance?

Maybe Mr FUD should organise another march to get whatever it is he’s trying to achieve. I wonder how many will turn up.
There’ll be him, and maybe Ruth, and…..
BobP It is on the BBC website.

At the moment the attendance looks about the same as the London march for a second EU referendum but still below the 400 000 who marched against the hunting ban with the Countryside Alliance or the 1 million who marched against the Iraq War and none of those achieved or have yet achieved their aims.
Marches make for a good day out, it is only at the ballot box change actually happens
Britnats on twatter are no happy it appears.
Seems their narrative of no appetite for a referendum has taken a bit of a dent today… again. (shrugs)
Still, if they’re so confident that there is no appetite for change, there is a simple solution. Join the Scottish government and call one. All they need do is vote no if that is there preference and if enough folk agree with them then they get a second shot at delivering their vision of the UK going forward.
What they cannot deny is that there has been a material (understatement of the decade) change in constitutional circumstance which flies in the face of everything they pledged to the population of Scotland in 2014. That is empirical fact and demands appropriate democratic response.
Democracy isn’t a one off event. The right to choose, to change your mind, isn’t a serving suggestion. It is an inalienable human right. If the winner of a ballot, (Hate that term. Its not a bloody game show), can’t or won’t deliver on the pledges and assurances they made? Then those they made those commitments to have the absolute right to choose again.
To say that seeking to deny people that right isn’t a good look, is also a bit of an understatement.
Worth a thought.
Dr Jim Patronise me if you wish (and I speak reasonable French) but my passport is the same as yours ie United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and only a tiny minority of Scots, 1.1% according to the 2011 census, speak Gaelic.
link to en.wikipedia.org
Most Scots speak English as their main language just as I do
Macart So if there was an indyref2 which won say 51% to 49% and a year later polls showed most Scots wanted to rejoin the UK and a third referendum would you agree it?
In any case polling shows most Scots do not support a referendum before or immediately after Brexit.
‘A September 2017 poll by Survation gave respondents an option of when they thought a second referendum should be held. 22% said that they’d support holding a referendum before Britain leaves the European Union, 13% said around the time Britain leaves the EU, a further 13% said that a referendum should be held a few years following the UK’s exit and 8% said a referendum should come after the 2021 Scottish Parliamentary elections. 37% said that a referendum should never be held on Scottish independence again, with 8% undecided.’
‘In January 2018, YouGov found that 54% of people opposed holding a referendum in principle, compared to 36% who supported holding one. These numbers fell when asked whether a referendum should be held following Brexit negotiations, but before the UK actually leaves the EU, to 51% and 35% respectively. The same poll found that 36% supported holding a referendum once Britain has left the EU, compared to 47% opposed’

NEXT MARCH IN LONDON….MEDIA WILL NOT BE ABLE TO IGNORE THAT….BRING THE BATTLE TO THE SMUG โCENTREโ. DรAN TรN DE LUNNAINN….FUCK UP LONDON!
Met a man from Epping on the march and he was an English for Yes supporter.He was brilliant and dismissed all the economic arguments as unimportant. His support for Scottish independence was based on human rights within a country supporting human dignity!
I feel a tremor in the Force. Unionists desperate to convince us of the error of our ways on Wings and the other media platforms. Today has shaken them up.
Simple equation—-The more threatened the more anger, even though it be disguised as indifference, minimising, or even scorn ,It all means the same thing—fear. Enjoy their discomfort because it’s going to get worse.

Ooooo you are awful ๐
BBC UK News– JK Rowling — how she feared she had been outed.- read it yourself.

Fairs fair bbc scotland does report the march. Herald has protesters.
The free press and news media is a myth.
Excellent turn out today, great weather, nice people.
No appetite for independence, I think not.
Well done to the organisers stewards and all who made the effort to be there today.
@Referendum1707,

AUOB march.
Police estimate, well in excess of 50,000.
Edinburgh City Council – 20,000. Ha, ha.
Unionist estimate – some, a few. No desire for a ref!!!
hfud — this isn’t a dating website. Try “tory need friends”
@Elmer FUD,
Pesky nationawists.
What a march today. Absolutely brilliant. Fantastic turnout. If the figures are confirmed as over 100,000 the Brit Nationals will still say there’s no appetite for another referendum. What a pathetic insular world they live in.
Their turnout today was about 20. More police surrounding them than anything else.
There is excellent news coverage of the march on RT. Its their lead story in the UK section. Sad that you have to go to a foreign TV station to see any decent coverage.
The Brit Nats are crapping themselves
If BritNats are so certain Scots don’t want Indy, why don’t they demand an IndyRef2 so they can prove it?
Rhetorical!
So, was today the biggest march of any kind Scotland has ever seen? Or, only within living memory?
OttomonBoi The same London which voted 59% to Remain in the EU when you are trying to use the Brexit vote in the rest of England and Wales as the latest excuse for another indyref?
A truly spectacular sight in Edinburgh today. There is not one inch of Scotland’s geography or any aspect of its demography that was not represented during today’s march.
An unstoppable force with an unshakeable belief and an assured future.
Hyufd,
Get a life, get real, —get a date!!!! Ha ha ha
@ Robert Kerr : T’was me you met going down the hill. Thanks for the company. Oor Daisy also introduced herself. Amazing scene turning into H Park and seeing the Crags covered in blue saltire’s.
Just returned from a marvellous day….going for a wee lie down to reflect on the March and all those smashing folk walking down the Royal Mile…many thanks to AUOB for organising such a fantastic day..Yipee!
It’s easy to patronise a twitnut who doesn’t even know Gaelic is only one of the languages spoken in Scotland apart from the English, I myself speak another of those languages which is the most used language in Scotland with variations depending on location but of course you don’t even know that do you twitnut, so look up yer wee Google search again for information on the country your very own uneducated big mouth is interfering in
One more thing to remember is some of the words you speak in your native tongue came from Scotland, you just don’t know it, keep it in mind when you next have to spell Penicillin or Chloriform or Tarmacadam or Television or or or or….Idiota….take yer time…. no clueses!
BBC radio Shortbread news @ 5 said March was BIG but that Police Scotland hadn’t supplied an estimate (or didn’t have one.) at 7pm they’ve just reported The council estimate was 20,000
That means the turnout was massive!
Brilliant day, marching down The Royal Mile,
The missus and I went to Embra to fly the flag in support of Independence. The crowd was huge, the weather superb, and the flags fluttering in the breezy sunshine was a sight to see, both on the cobbles and high on the hills. Amazing!
But I saw something else, interwoven with massive support for Indy, I saw belief. It was unmistakable.
Soar Alba
Ps Well done, Chris. Sorry I left you till last. Your genius will survive a small amount of neglect, I’m sure.
@HYUFD
Things have moved on. This is not about the UK/EU relationship, but about Scoto-English relations. For three centuries we have been prey to English whims, anglicisation, subversion and colonial manipulation. This generation, at long last, says enough. Divide and rule is over….And the devil take the Ruth Davidsons and their sorry โfawningโ ilk.
Oidhche mhร th leat! A very good night to you!
Clydebuilt, I heard shortbread 7 pm news,it must have been Scott Arthur from Edinburgh council who said the figure was 20,000.
Hyufd 6.05pm. A lot of people especially elderly dont have computers to check ‘websites’.
Dr Jim Scots, spoken by 30% of Scots, is either considered as an ancient variety of English with distinct dialects or as a distinct Germanic language if anything

Serious reports of British Nationalists being rushed to hospital with exploding heads,
SNHS spokesperson say Scotland has invented a cure but some are resisting treatment due to a lack of education and information from the BBC and Scottish media in general
In a statement from the Scottish government First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said “I would be more than happy to administer the medicine personally to each and every one of those afflicted with this terrible malaise” she went on to say “Scotland is a caring country and we will do all we can to help”
OttomanBoi So if you are saying this is not about the UK and EU relationship but about the English and Scottish relationship then the decision was already made by Scots in 2014, 55% of them voted to keep the Union in that year’s referendum and were happy with having a Scottish Parliament while staying in the UK
Ach twitnat yer no lookin in the richt place again chooky
Folks;
Ignore HY FUD.
The march today was planned months ago. Not a very large yoon turn out. Planning doesn’t appear to be their forte.
Left Johnstone Terrace at 1.40. Got to the High St and a steward told us 30,000 had preceded us!
The HYFUD is really, really tedious especially on a day like today – Edinburgh march and a’ that. I could not make the march today and had a wee bubble at the videos of the event. I wish HYFUD would go away or at least give a straight answer to the questions he has been asked umpteen times by Wingers. I am sick of the obfuscation. He thinks his bullshit baffles brains. He is wrong. Wingers’ bullshit detectors are operating at full power. He has no horse in this race. He cannot give one (sane) reason for Scotland’s staying as a colony of Englandshire. He should go forth and multiply. I suspect he can’t find someone to multiply with.

Scotland was lied too. Vote No, you remain in the EU .
Lies by Brown Darling Cameron May Davidson –All a big lie and you are part of it.
What excuse will Nicola now give when she rules out holding an independence referendum before Brexit has been completed?

The accusation against Alex Salmond?
The coming soon snap general election?
Now is not the time?

Hillarious! Straws being grasped in sheer desperation there, HYUFD. That’s a bit like the British/English nationalist method of stating statistical figures that bear no relevant comparason.
Like you have already attempted to do here on Wings with per capita GDP figures.
Now I’m far from being a mathematical wizard but when feeble minded idiots think themselves ultra clever and try to fool sane people by offering statistical evidence like comparing the per capita GDP of a city with the Per Capita GDP of entire country I know the person is either extremely naรฏve or thinks we are all idiots in Scotland.
Just bear in mind that little Scotland gave to the World these famous great mathematicians:-
Alexander Macfarlane; Alexander Wilson ; Colin Mackenzie; David Brewster; David Gregory; David Wallace; Eric Temple Bell; James Clerk Maxwell; James Crichton; James D.

That list is far from comprehensive, HYUFD, but you may, for example recognise such as Napier who invented the concept of logarithms.
The list will suffice to demonstrate that Scotland has given much to the modern World in all the fields of the sciences and engineering. In fact Scots led Europe into the European enlightenment.
The Great Voltaire said of Scotland, “‘We look to Scotland for all our ideas of civilisation”
Yet here you are attempting the idiocy of trying to offer as a serious logical argument a comparison of marchers for an independent Scotland with a rather out of date and never really relevant referendum where the terms of today bear no comparison to those of 2014.
I’ll say no more than in 2014 the status quo was the United Kingdom in the European Union but the status quo now is the United Kingdom OUT of the European Union yet you are stupid enough to imagine there is a comparison.
iScotland is going to happen within the next 24 Months @HYFUD
When it does:
iScotlands alleged exports to UK will decrease when our exports to Europe and beyond leave from Scottish ports and airports (rather than count as exports to rUK via the reverse Rotterdam effect)
iScotlands Exchequer will then get 100% of the tax receipts/VAT etc. on these exports
National Grid Connection Charges will cease on the electricity exported from an iScotland and the Scottish Exchequer will get paid the going rate rather than charged to export it.
iScotlands Exchequer will also get the tax receipts for exports of oil and gas which is currently either counted as ExRegio (rather than Scottish) or allowed to be extracted by the E&P Majors who are actually getting tax rebates rather than paying correct tax (compare Norwegian tax receipts for extraction vs UK when you consider the cost to produce are broadly similar at $15/$20 a barrel).
Your โEngland Wales Governmentโ will then be left without itโs Northern cash cow (and itโs electricity) but will however be left with ยฃ2 Trillion (& rising National debt), a Neo-Fascist Right Wing Government and a pissed off electorate.
The only reason London and its surrounding commuter belt, is the region of the UK with by far the highest GDP per capita is because the UKs ebullient of Norway’s Sovereign Oil Fund was pissed up against the M25, Crossrail, Canary Warf etc. and the fact ‘The City’ launders global dirty money.

Simple solution to the BritNat conundrum HYFUD:

If you truly believe the BritNat Propaganda (% of this = that, only 20,00 marchers in Edinburgh today etc. etc.) why not?

WHY NOT?
We got to Johnson Terrace about 12.50 -didn’t start to move off till about 1.20 and then incredibly sporadic. Didn’t reach the top of the Royal Mile till 2.50 then it took a good half an hour to reach the Parliament.
No cross words, unpleasant scenes, no litter – just folk walking, singing, laughing, chanting – enjoying the amazing weather and the sight of so many beautiful blue Saltires. Spectators lined the side of the Esplanade as we walked past and two separate groups had hung Saltires over the side of the Ramparts – good job HES didnae see them!
Tiny group of Unionists, about 23 folk and 12 flags – half way down the Mile – with Rule Brittania blaring out on their music system but we drowned that out easily.
Is that seriously all they could muster?
Met Chris the Jacobite piper in the Park and he said he was hearing estimates of 120,000 – 150,000 marchers.
Awesome day- many thanks to all who organised and participated in the event.
Great train journey home – although the trains were haywire – so much banter and enthusiasm for the day from all and sundry.
Added some YES stones to the cairn by the Parliament. Saw banners from Moray, Stornoway, Caithness and Sutherland, Airdire, Stirling, Trossachs, Ayr, Blairgowrie and Rattray, Finnish, Catalan, Manx, Norwegian, Nottinghamshire, English, Irish flags.
All ages, all types of dug – a real cross mix of Scotland.
Not long now….
20,000 marchers – Edinburgh City Council who are you trying to kid? Grow up!!!
For every person who marched today, there will have been one who couldn’t make it, like myself. I was also talking to two independence supporting pals of mine last week who didn’t even know there was a march. They don’t do twitter or facebook. And I bet there would be many thousands of indy supporters who are also loyal followers of their football team and went to the match instead.
Just a shame that the true size of the crowd will never be shown in pictures as it took so long for everybody to get to the park. I hear many were leaving as folk were still arriving.
So I was a Yes Biker virgin today. Left home at sub zero temp. Stopped 6 times to warm up, burnt my good gloves when they slipped on to the exhaust. Dropped my helmet on the ground! At Holyrood, the bike wouldn’t start, battery died, and I had to bump start it. What an absolutely fantastic day I had!!!!
And I met some great people in the huge turnout of bikes! Still waiting to hear the number, but it was BIG.

” โฆ The success of the march is great, but it does give Nicola Sturgeon a bit of a conundrum:”
Where did you dig that nonesence up from, Richard?
” โฆ In instead of being in the position of petitioning Westminster for a referendum, doesnโt she have to step it up, for example by putting UDI in the next SNP manifesto?”
That too is twaddle. In the first place no one has need to petition Westminster, “for a referendum”, for no one can legally prevent anyone from holding a referendum and a thus a Section 30 Order is NOT Westminster’s permission to hold a referendum.
It is a two partner agreement to abide by the result because, like the EU Referendum, all referendums are consultative unless there is a prior agreement of both sides to abide by the results.
In any case the EU referendum had no prior agreement for Westminster to legally abide by the result but Westminster’s subsequent insistence that the result “Is the will of the people”, has established a legal precedent that Holyrood can, and will exploit to their advantage.
That, if you are capable of understanding it, is the reason the Scottish Government, (Nicola Sturgeon, unlike Theresa May, does not operate as a dictator), sees it is advantageous to seek a Section 30 Order, although there is no legal necessity to obtain one, there are indeed sound tactical reasons for doing so.
Furthermore, as the people of Scotland are legally sovereign and Westminster chose NOT to challenge the recent, “Scottish Claim of Right”, made in the Supreme Court they thereby acknowledge it makes you claims of a, “Unilateral Declaration of Independence”, totally impossible to do.
Let me explain that for you – as the Queen of England is legally sovereign in the Kingdom of England, (but not in the Kingdom of Scotland), and must under the Rule of Law of England delegate her sovereignty to, “The Parliament of the Kingdom of England”, (as established under English Law in 1688, (before the Treaty of Union)), then under English law the Parliament of the Kingdom of England is legally sovereign over the Kingdom of England and can act as if they were the monarch of England.
Their problem is there has been no actual elected as such Parliament of the Kingdom of England since 30 April 1707. Westminster is not elected as the Parliament of England.
However the people of Scotland are legally sovereign and if a majority of them decide to end the Treaty of Union the United Kingdom is disunited. It is not possible for a majority of the legally sovereign people of Scotland to declare UDI because, being Sovereign their word is law.
What a beautiful day in every way. When we were walking back up the Royal Mile about 3.15 (started at 1.20ish), there were still thousands walking down from Johnstone Terrace. No end in sight and I feel this was bigger than the Glasgow Anti-Iraq War march and much, much more confident. and happy.
Every type of person on the march and a lovely atmosphere. I counted 13 UJs and a new guy with The Transferable Manky Shirt looking very despondent as the 10s of 1000s passed and nae wunner. Great to see so many folk on the crags too: what a spectacle (and I include Ronnie Anderson’s new beard!!!).

Just as well you’re not stoking yourself up a torrent of internet based politically switched on active campaigners who may well have an “input” on your territory at some point, eh.
HYUFD = just another lying BRITISH NATIONALIST.
If 55% of them – including all these postal voters from holiday homes in Argyll, and all over Scotland – voted for something in 2014, that was 4 years ago.
This is now 2018, and what WAS 55% now has to be described anew. Try calling it ‘WAS 55%, and NOW shrinking fast …’ Or maybe ‘shrinking’ should be ‘sinking’ …
Someone on this site, whom I won’t name, needs to be telt … Did you no’ hear what Macart told you at 6:06 pm? ‘Democracy isn’t a one-off event …’
You should listen to him, man. No’ just go off into one of yer knee-jerk spasms, pretending to yersel’ that that counts as a ‘response’ …
Of course, to make a ‘response’ – something ‘reasoned’ and ‘reasonable’ – requires rationality. A bit o’ real thought.
Might not be your kind of thing, I suppose …
Well said, Macart.
Democracy never stops … Like thought, for most people … Most people, that is, except those who never learned to think in the first place.
————–
Well said, too, that ‘English Scot for Yes’ mentioned in a post above who didn’t care about the economic arguments, but who wanted to live in a country founded on human rights and supportive of them … Or words to that effect.
And good to hear from the contributor who noted that the sense of ‘belief’ among the marchers today was tangible.
These kind of sentiments have nothing irrational or merely emotional about them. They are moral sentiments, which show not just confidence that the argument for independence is already won, but also conviction that the cause is just.
Which is what we need. We’ll never win independence only on the strength of the economic case for it, however strong that case might be. Even if it was weak, we would still win independence so long as we are convinced of what we are doing. It is not mere material advantage but the basic rightness of the cause that will carry the day.
Once more and more people are convinced of that plain fact, independence will be unstoppable. And once it is gained, it will prove irreversible. Freedom and justice are intertwined, and ‘freedom is a noble thing …’ Once we taste it, we won’t ever want to go back on it. So too with striving for justice.
Without freedom, justice – even of the most basic kind – eludes us, and becomes unattainable. And that’s what it literally is for Scotland right now. Within the UK, as always in the past but still more as presently conceived, and as presently operated, justice has become unattainable for the Scottish people.
There are plenty of decent enough people who are not yet convinced of independence, though we can hope that they eventually will be. This leads to a question: do they have decent arguments to support their current pro-UK position? To be blunt about it: Did anyone ever hear a single Unionist putting forward an argument based on the justice of their cause? Has anyone ever argued that we should stay in the Union because justice requires it of us, and it is simply the right thing to do?
I don’t think I have ever heard any such an argument. And I can’t imagine anyone being able to argue it with conviction. All we generally hear from our Unionist friends is arguments from expediency, emphasising the advantages we are supposed to get from being in the UK, and -especially – how very afraid we ought to be of the terrible consequences that will follow if we leave it.
If they can’t argue the justice of their own cause, it is no doubt because they are not convinced themselves. They don’t actually believe that staying in the UK is anything whatever to do with justice.
There is therefore a gaping hole at the centre of Unionism in Scotland. That is, at the centre of that coalition of highly disparate forces that comes together only to thwart independence, and ‘save’ the ‘unsavable’ (and unsavoury) Union. They are not really a movement because they are simply defined by being ‘against’ something (one thing – Scottish independence). Other than that, and their desire to impose themselves on the rest of us, they have nothing much in common with each other. There is no ‘just cause’ binding them together.
Their belief in the Union isn’t based on justice. Despite all the threatening (and indeed fearful) noises that emanate from it, the Unionist cause therefore lacks conviction. This will eventually prove their downfall. Without conviction, without the basic belief that your cause is just, you can only go on for so long … Eventually you will run out of steam, your ’cause’ strangled by being caught up in the strings of its own lack of justice and conviction …
Ultimately, that is where the independence movement will score so easily over its Unionist opponents, and gain the day – very soon, by the looks and sound of what was happening in Edinburgh today.
Whatever the forces ranged against it, a just cause which carries the conviction of its adherents – who are convinced simply because they know their cause IS just – will finally defeat opponents who are not so convinced.
The unjust cause eventually dissolves itself, often in a mass of its own self-contradictions. Its own lack of inner conviction – its own injustices – become increasingly apparent to more and more of its own adherents. Without conviction, they can’t keep fighting for it. And more and more of them (the more reasonable and decent of them, certainly) simply drift away … they give up … and they even change sides.
And many of those who have not yet come over to the pro-independence side are decent enough people … Who can budge, and from whom we have everything to gain …
There is an inner logic to all this. It will not ultimately be because we have the better economic arguments (even though, in fact, we do) that we will regain our independence. It will be because of the justice of our cause.
And because more and more Scots – including English Scots living in Scotland – are convinced of the justice of that cause. And convinced, likewise, that its opposite – Scotland continuing to remain in a UK which overrides and undermines her at every turn – would be to continue a grave injustice. One which does serious harm to Scotland, to the Scottish people and to all who live there.
Both tenets – that Scotland’s independence is a just cause, and that for her to remain in the UK would be to perpetuate a seerious injustice that does real harm to people – are indisputably true. Not just historically (though they always were true!) but – we might say even more so – in terms of what the UK has become, and now is. Independence is about righting wrongs that are both historical and present. It is a moral cause, and it will triumph because, ultimately, justice – despite its many enemies – does finally prevail.
It is bound to.
This has been coming for 300 years. It is right, and more than ever needed. And – to correct an inherently unjust phrase – the time is now!
Be convinced!

Well done Edinburgh and to every single one of you who attended the march today.
HYUFD = just another lying British Nationalist troll.
Anyone who thinks Scotland’s history is comparable to Quebec’s doesn’t know much about either Quebec or Scotland.
The same goes for Quebec’s situation in relation to Canada, and Scotland’s situation within the UK.
In case someone hasn’t noticed, Canada was not formed in the same way as the UK was formed. Nothing like it. The respective constitutional situations are not in the least comparable.
Canada isn’t the UK. Scotland isn’t Quebec.
One thing can be granted, however. When the campaign for 2014 was under way, the Conservative Government and the ‘Better Together’ people did study what had happened in Quebec. And they tried very hard to learn from it. Even imitating whatever dirty trick they could pick up, from that example, concerning how to win a referendum.
That is, how to win it by hook or by crook … not by guaranteeing fair process.
If anyone mentions Quebec in regard to Scotland, it is not too difficult to guess where they are probably coming from. The assumption that Scotland is in any way comparable to Quebec might well indicate complete ignorance of what constitutes the UK.
It is astonishing how many of those who purport to love the UK, and seek to maintain it by all possible means (fair or foul), are so ignorant of the constitutional and legal foundations on which it rests.
Beginning with Mrs May herself, of course. She and her ‘4-nation union’ twaddle …
Truly amazing …

Wull In Quebec most of the population even speaks a different language to the rest of Canada, French rather than English, in Scotland most people still speak English as their main language.
The final Quebec referendum could have gone either way but the Federalists narrowly won by giving Quebec’s Assembly what was essentially devomax much as will eventually likely be the solution for Scotland and given to the Scottish Parliament
I’m open to debate BTW
