Letters / Great Britain is dead

You have to feel sorry for the No voters struggling in vain to get their better together message across.

There is no UK anymore!

If they took a few minutes to look seriously at the once proud nation of Great Britain, they would see that the UK has been wrecked since the untried war criminal Tony Blair and his New Labour party laid the groundwork for the despicable Tory party and their political prostitute partners, the Liberal Democrats, to finish off the work.

The Westminster public school ruling elite, which includes all the three main English parties as well as the barmy UKIP nutters, have brought about a system of governance in the UK – though mostly in England – that is no longer united.

It has and is totally focused on selling all the great utilities and public services that can only deliver a united service if run on the interests of the whole country and not just a few greedy or speculative shareholders.

So what is it that the No Hopers – No Voters want to retain?

The UK is a social disgrace; it has lost its way and is dominated by greedy individuals with power, influence and eyes on their own individual future wealth.

Scotland has always been very different even within the now dead Great Britain. Scotland has a social conscience and desire to be in as much control of its destiny as the modern world permits and therefore seeks an absolutely necessary divorce from a failed partner to protect its higher moral ethics.

Vote Yes for a future & no to greed. Vote No for more of the same & yes to the destruction of Scottish values.
