Ok simple challenge for any parents out there happy with the policy. When you say good night to the child that you love tonight, look them in the eye and promise them,
"when daddy votes for jndependence later this year, It will guarantee that you, my loved ones, will grow up in a country where[b] there will be no nuclear weapons on our soil.[/b] That is [b]my [/b]promise to [b]you[/b]."
Kiss them good night, and then look at yourself in the mirror. Tell me what you see and how you feel.
Whatnobeer, thanks for the refreshing honesty. Much better than others' pretence and deceit.
when daddy votes for jndependence later this year, It will guarantee that you, my loved ones, will grow up in a country where there will be no nuclear weapons on our soil. That is my promise toyou."

Wow. Things got weird. We're almost down to this:
Indeed Konabunny I am not sure what thm is getting at here.
It's v simple really, if you can look you children in the eye and tell them honestly that there will be no nukes in Scotland, then the debate is over. Gordi, can, so fair enough. Members of Scotland's CND clearly cannot.
Personal choice, no value judgements, debate over.
Perhaps we can tell our children that Israel doesn't have nukes either since the policy is the same.
From CND Scotland website
Details2014 will present a once-in-a-century opportunity for nuclear disarmament. Scotland has been the unwilling host to Polaris and Trident for 50 years. The three UK parties are planning to base new nuclear weapons at Faslane for the next half century. A Yes vote in September will enable us to scrap Trident and create a nuclear free Scotland.
They don't seem to share your opinion thm
Oops,
I wonder what the next diversionary stunt will be now?
Given the thread's title it's funny how AS rejects the idea of a debate with his obvious peer, darling. Perhaps he will pick up the gauntlets thrown down by Alexander and Balls. He must be getting really impatient for an opportunity to explain why anyone favouring BT is talking nonsense!!!
"Purely a debate between the Scots"....
A FOREIGN Office department ostensibly set up to promote the Scottish Government's interests is being used against it in the independence referendum, diplomatic cables have revealed.The Devolution Unit, created by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) in 2012 to deliver abroad the "utmost co-operation", now appears to be at the heart of Westminster's anti-independence drive, amassing hostile reactions from overseas.
It is understood the FCO has contacted the governments of China, Russia, the US, New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the 28 EU nations about the Scottish referendum in a global search for allies who might oppose independence.
One recent cable showed UK embassies being ordered to forward a Westminster paper critical of independence "to their host governments and other local contacts" and then feed their comments back to the Devolution Unit "ASAP".
