Film Star Sean Connery Urges Scots to Leave UK

Film star Sean Connery is urging fellow Scots to vote for independence when a referendum is held in September.

The longtime independence advocate says in The Sun on Sunday newspaper that the opportunity to separate from the rest of Britain is too good an opportunity to miss.

He says independence would galvanize the film and creative industries, creating new jobs in Scotland.

Connery no longer lives there and said the decision should be made by the people who choose to live and work in Scotland.

Who was the movie star he punched out back then? I forget. I’m hoping it was Franchot Tone, because I dislike him and he used to get beat up a lot when he drank, but I don’t think it was.

Is that a shot at the follicly challenged?

Not from me, as I am rapidly joining that catagory as I creep towards seniority.

Socialism and degenerate social mores are becoming the norm in Scotland, so the rest of the UK might be better-off without them.

Connery is right, but he is ahead of history. Britain is about to go tats up. But the Scots are now socialist and “ pro union worker.” They will never vote away the source of their dole.Too bad too.

I would like to see Connery as Prime Minister of an independent Scotland.

Too old. At 83, He’s retired from acting. If he can’t handle acting, how can he handle an entire nation?

A Scoot is still young at 83. With a wee drop of Scotch and a little luck, he has handled a much younger, artiste , wild French wife!

He would ace being a PM.

Sir Sean Connery made ‘’crazy’’ love to his wife 24 hours after they first met.

The 82-year-old actor embarked on a passionate affair with French artist Micheline Roquebrune - who he later wed in 1975 - while he was still married to Australian actress Diane Cilento, and Micheline will never forget their first time between the sheets.

Describing their first romantic tryst in March 1972 in France’s Gala magazine, Micheline wrote: ‘’The key is in the door. He’s reading a newspaper, lying down, naked. In one step, I jump on the bed, undo my leather belt and pretend to whip him with it while dancing.

‘’He grabs hold of me and kisses me passionately. Almost brutally. Animalistically. His skin releases a scent, not of hot sand, but more like Silex, a warm and intoxicating smell like stones rubbing against each other. I’m transported.

‘’The four days that follow, we continue to play golf like strangers then we meet to make love like crazy people. The reality is even better than the fantasy. No man has ever had this effect on me.’’

Micheline went on to recount how it was love at first sight when the pair first met at the Mohammedia golf club in Morocco.

She said: ‘’For the whole world, he’s a huge star, but for me, he is, above all, the man of my dreams.’’

Once back home the pair returned to their respective partners and Micheline didn’t hear from Sean until two years later, when she received a message inviting her to join him in Marbella, Spain.

She explained: ‘’[I think to myself] ‘Who does he think he is?’ ... [But once there] he locks his eyes on mine and says, ‘I’ve missed you ... I can’t stop thinking about you and I can’t forget you.’ ‘’

This from a ‘die hard Scot’ who’s not lived in Scotland for years! And, for that reason, he doesn’t get to vote in the referendum.

celebrities, like everyone else, are divided on the issue (as they are on everything else).

Oh get with the times man! Money, real money, is an irrelevance! This is the 21st century - defecit spending is all the rage. Debt is the new wealth!

The new institutioned Bank of Scotland will print more notes and the new government of Scotland will borrow more to make up the shortfall. Best of all, when it all goes wrong, they can wriggle out of the difficulty by blaming the English. The conditions of independence will be wrong, or the division of UK wealth will be said to have been calculated incorrectly - theres always going to be something they can find to avoid any responsibility.
