I bet most of you thought it was . . .

GORDON Brown has called for a new law to “fully entrench” the Scottish Parliament in the UK’s constitutional landscape so its powers can never be over-ruled or abolished by Westminster.

Scotsman article

Both Tam Dalyell and Michael Kelly have recently called for the Scottish parliament to be abolished in the event of a NO vote.

It really could be a case of 'vote No, get nothing'

What ridiculous scaremongering rubbish.

No-one, absolutely no-one, in a position to do so or to influence Government policy, has suggested that if you vote NO then the Scottish Parliament will be abolished.

How utterly ridiculous !

NickB you have fallen hook line and sinker for a couple of tits who enjoy winding up your lot. A minor journalist on the Scotsman and an 80 odd year old ex politician who has spent his whole life making a living out of being controversial.

Its a case of Vote No and continue to enjoy being a member of a greater family while governing your own home affairs.

Vote Yes and you're on your own sonny. Good luck with that eh.

I reckon YeSNP are running very scared if they're now trying to frighten people with absolutely baseless stories like Hollyrood will be abolished.

Laughable tosh, I thought better of your judgement and integrity NickB. There you go 'spose.
