The Scots are being sold a false prospectus. Here are some of the falsehoods.
(1) We own the pound and CU is inevitable.
(2) The EU will accept us with open arms (without being obliged to sign away our sovereignty and adopt the Euro)
(3) Significant businesses are largely pro separation.
(4) Oil revenue is not falling and can only increase.
(5) The NHS is at risk if we stay in the Union.
(6) Taxes will not increase.
(7) Jobs are not at risk.
(8) Mortgages will not increase.
(9) Interest rates on borrowing will notincrease.
(10) The bitter divisiveness between the yes and no camps is not an issue either now or in the future.
(11) rUK will accede to all of our negotiation demands.
(12) Pensions are safe.
(13) The separation on offer is true independence.
(14) Salmond is not a disingenuous, blustering bully,
(15) Salmond does not wish to inherit the mantle of Robert the Bruce.
(16) Salmond has Scotland’s best future interests at heart.And the biggest lie of all perhaps:
(17) “Things can only get better” after separation!!
