Forres & beyond!

By KirbieT

Last Yes Cafe today and someone ran home to put on a better together t-shirt and the tried to antagonise my dad and the other yes volunteers by starting off by telling them that he was going to stand beside the Yes gazeebo the. When we all said that, that was fine he went on to say that he couldn't understand why we were voting yes so the question was turned around to ask why he was voting No. He didn't answer and started asking what would happen to the benefit system and that we were one island so we should still be united. My dad told him we would have our own benefit system and asked the guy why does he think we can't be independent and just cause we are on one Island doesn't mean we can't be indy and also asked if the guy thought that Europe was a single country or Africa? The guy stated to get peed off and started shouting about how Alex Salmond is a tyrant and dictator and that's why he's voting no (he was walking away but shouting by this time). My dad just answered him and said it's nothing to do with Alex Salmond. Most of the folk about that heard this mans rant were laughing cause he made himself look stupid in public. Dear dear. Got my Yes flag last night so off to order a telescopic flag pole.
