Or, are we just going to have to assume that you are an uncaring, monomaniacal Tory-Nat. Yes, I have asked this before and every time you have dodged the answer. Is it hitting a sore spot. Do you secretly admit that the he dream is over. Are you just thrawn. Can you provide evidence that independence will bring these things you say. Or is it based on educated guesses. Because I can post from capitalist think tanks which predict the opposite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
