dsl ![]() | "we'll ... leave" was the UK as a whole. The Scottish vote in 2014 is unlikely on current debate to give a clear break from rest of UK - London government and political parties are doing their best to ensure that the Scots are scared into voting against independence by predicting disaster ("Scotland needs lots of UK subsidies to survive and will go bankrupt without them") and insisting it has to be a total break off if independence is pursued. What the Scottish mood probably wants is a much greater degree of self determination for its own future, but still as part of a UK confederation with many shared arrangements, a voting option which London is trying to prevent. This raises 2 questions (1) why won't London allow the Scots to express their actual opinion instead of forcing the question into dramatic scary choices? and (2) if Scotland is such a subsidy sponge and drain on the UK economy, why is London so determined to force us to stay? | 2012-07-20 13:33 | |

ingo ![]() | Mmmhhh, my personal opinion is a bit stricter. Even stricter than our Iron Angie is acting right now (although I've never voted for here, is the more right than the others IMO). For me the hardcore, really colonialistic way would be fine: paying money is o.k., but the giver has extensive, at least only rights to decide, what shall happen with it. I wouldn't give a sh*t about national or regional feelings - anyone, who wants my money, has to make, what I want. In Germany it's a saying: "The fellow, who pays the band, decides, what music will be played" |

ingo ![]() | Do you mean with the "we'll ... leave" in this sentence the Brits or the Scots? As it was to read in an interview of the SNP-party leader, in 2014 Scotland will vote about leaving - but leaving the UK, not the EU! And that Scotland maybe will enter the €-Zone. Because from the EU more money can be expected, than the UK is pushing to the North right now. -- Last edit: 2012-07-20 12:53:30 |

| Travelpass: It's Just The Ticket (1973) |
dsl ![]() | Strange continuity - particularly early in the film - with a bizarre route which backtracks on itself a few times and jumps around illogically. Also amazing how many outfits the girls can contain in such little luggage, and some interesting platform shoes, flares etc for 70s fashions, which the blokes join in as well. Interesting as well for how different ferry travel became in the next few years with ro-ro introductions on all the routes shown - it's a great snapshot of what happened before this major change. And thanks for my Hillmans. | 2012-07-20 03:31 | |

dsl ![]() | This is Tarbet on Loch Lomond, and they're catching the bus to Tarbert in Argyll. There's also another shot about halfway through the film of another bus with Tarbert destination (no page made) in a brief sequence for the Tarbert on Harris in the Outer Hebrides. Scotland has a few Tarbe(r)ts to choose from - it's an old Viking name for a place where boats could be drawn up and across a narrow strip of land between sea and loch or 2 lochs. | 2012-07-20 03:21 | |

dsl ![]() | So do something about it (or get your leaders to). Moaning about Britain not being willing to accept being cynically exploited as a piggy-bank only makes it more likely that we'll eventually leave and you have to pay more of the bill. Or disentangle the EU so that it reduces to a level of actually bringing benefits instead of just demanding more and more resources and control to keep itself fed. |

ingo ![]() | Err, it was a very very short timeframe between entering and the handbag-stroke "I want my money back!" with the resulting unreasonably and still valid discount Dimensions away from the money, we Germans have bleeded. Since March 1957 and not just from 1973 to the Maggie-era.O.k., the advantages are notably. No import taxes any more. Marmite, Surströmming, Kriek lambic, Morris Marina, FSO Syrena, everything, which makes the life livable can be purchased paperwork-free all around the EU. |

dsl ![]() | This is about the only thing where I ever agreed with Mad Maggie - why should UK be expected to write open cheques every year as charitable donations to subsidise European expenditure on its own self interests? And especially when some countries are so ungrateful for our generosity and begrudge even a small portion returning to UK for improving infrastructure? And the depressing prospect for Scotland is that if we break clear of a UK system which does not really give a monkey's whatnots about Scotland, our only direction seems to be into a worse situation of dependency on Europe. |
