The conversation I am currently not having with several people is about George Osbourne and #IndyRef.

Everytime a No voter I know starts tearing in to the manifest incompetence and evil of Osbourne as Chancellor I have to bite my tongue to avoid saying unhelpful things like "You voted for him to be our Chancellor you idiot!"

In all fairness, I can certainly see how a person could be for continued union but against this particular government without logical contradiction.

That is true.

There's no huge logical contradiction but there's a bit of responsibility for running the risk.

Just as I'd be responsible for the risk I'd been prepared to take with the oil price had Scotland voted Yes.

You marks your ballot, you takes your choice.

It absolutely is. Thank you.

I'm about half way through a bit of a blog response to it.
