Fundamentalism is based upon a deep religious mantra which I cannot cope with so pass, Basques yes as based on a feeling they're not really Spanish but have a seperate identity, animal rights is just loonies who cannot engage in a political debate where their political system allows for it

Fair enough! It is hard not to challenge such opinions though!

She is a very strong woman - and, for some reason, people don't seem to like that quality in women! Rather pathetic really!

I think people didn't like her because she is a money grabbing *****. However she could have won 60 or 70 million in the divorce settlement but she chose to represent herself and got about 24 mil?

Suppose we don't know what happens behind closed doors. Don't have much of an opinion on Heather but she is an inspiration when she was on Dancing on Ice!

So it would be acceptable in your eyes for the Geordie Liberation Front, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Geordieland and the Geordie Peoples Freedom Fighters, not to mention the People Popular Army for a Free Geordie Homeland, to start blowing up targets in both England and Scotland?

Correction - they like to think she is a money grabbing ***** - that has never been proven! Anyway - there are far worse money grabbing *****s out there who don't get persecuted the way she has been!

The only thing that gives marriage any significance is that it's one thing that happens in, for the most part, all religions. Everything else about it has been changed by us to be bourgeois bull****.

I'm against abortion,but that's more a personal thing than a view I'd force on anyone. Oh and I'm terrified of dogs but I don't hate them.

If it ever happened and they had a strong feeling for freedom then I'd certainly take note. The SNLA had a few and connections with the IRA but went down the democratic route, hence we have the Scottish Parliament and the SNP in control of it and hopefully rid ourselves of England soon

The only way to make somebody do something is by force. This statement should be used in our government today, The government now is a bunch of wimps.

You seriously think that full independance will be good for Scotland, dont forget that oil contracts wouldnt be renegotiated till they are nearing expiry, so the current financial status quo would remain, also acceptance into Europe would not be guaranteed, either for England or Scotland, and because of the balance of finances that have been made European wise over the last 20-30 years, they may decide not to accept Scotland.

Mind you England and Wales would be better off.

Well I guess the Tories did blow all of the oil money on their golden years, and if you inspect the Treasury settlements, Scotland has been clawing it back slowly ever since.

I've never accepted the SNP mantra that it was Scotland's oil because the contracts were internationally negotiated between companies and the UK. Back in th 80s I would never accept that Scotland had a case for freedom and used to argue that with Alex Salmond my case (a flatmate was the SNP convenor @ Edinburgh Uni and dragged me to meetings).

Gradually I have changed my views and feel the time is right now. We have established a working Parliament and have little in common with the country of England & Wales.

Bleeding sheep followers, who have no thought of their own. They just agree with everything someone says untill everyoe hates their master and they turn on them. I know plenty off them, its pathetic.
