    To think the message against independence was something like “keeping the union strong”, while at the same time the message for brexit was “better alone” or some shit like that.

      Not all that surprising, typical Conservative double-speak (or is it talking out of both sides of their mouth?).

      We had something similar here in Australia in the early 2000s, when we voted on a referendum on whether to ditch the Monarchy and become a Republic:

      All of the Stay/Remain advertising focused on the message that “this [proposed] Australia’s Not The One”, and inferring that we could have another referendum in the near future with a different form of revised Government. Suffice to say, that was utter bullshit - and we haven’t revisited the topic since.

      By then again, we wouldn’t even pass a referendum to allow the Aborigines a Voice in Parliament a few years ago - so we’ve probably rolled backwards also.
