A thought, if you consider the result in Scotland and combine it with the result from the referendum it's pretty clear what the situation is.

They'll talk up national pride and bang on about how much England screw them over until a serious conversation comes up and they admit that they need us all along.

Conclusion? Country of moaning bottle jobs.

The Scottish? Bottle monkeys? Yes, just like the French and Italians. So, so similar.

As before - if they had another referendum they'd vote 'No' again. They know which side their bread is buttered. Definite 'benefit' in having millions of tax payers south of the border.

They got fewer votes than for the Independence Referendum

I can see a major fall out between Salmond & Sturgeon. Salmond, like Farage didn't want to let go and this is his way back.

Thats what the scots want, a party that will only look out for their interests and win all the nice freebies but need to stay in the UK so the Wealth creators in England pay for it all

That sounds entirely reasonable to me.

Time for the Scottish poem methinks....

I'm a Scot and I'm married, two things I cant help.
I'm married - but I have no wife -
For she bolted and left me - but that's nothing new,
It happens sa often in life.
So I journeyed to London, for that's where she'd gone
With her lover to hide her disgrace,
And though London's a big town I swore I'd not rest
Till I'd searched every street in the place.
And I tramped - how I tramped - weary mile upon mile
Till exhausted and ready ta drop.
I would not give in, so I climbed on a bus,
And took a front seat on the top.
We came to a halt in a bright lit square,
To my joy, there ma lassie I spied,
Looking weary and worn, but thank heaven - alone -
From my heart 'Maggie, Maggie' I cried.
She gasped with delight as I rose from ma seat,
But a harrowing thought made me wince.
I couldna get off - for I'd just paid ma fare -
And I've never caught sight of her since.

She has done amazing well. After the humiliation of the no vote, you would have expected the SNP to do badly in the next election. It's amazing what a stylist and a sympathetic press (north of the border) can do for your image.

 


It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

Or that they take stock in a government that actually has done well by them in terms of things like prescription charges, tuition fees etc, but don't actually want to see the UK break up. The SNP didn't succeed in Scotland because of National Pride, it succeeded because as a party it listened to the people of Scotland far more than Labour and the Conseravtives ever did, and represents issues that they find important.

Nationalism is all well and good, but its not a pragmatic way of running a country. The SNP's popularity is much more to do with their politics than nationalism. They've even won in areas which aren't particualy nationalist.

Why the fishes though (Salmon-d and Sturgeon). Labour should field John Dorry and Alex Carp.

Precisely. Half of me wishes they'd just f*ck off.
