The ...Need to pick you up on something there James. The MORI poll is not the first ever to show an absolute majority for "Yes" prior to adjustment. In 2006, there were two such polls, one showing a 51/37 breakdown in favour of independence. They are archived on UK Polling Report.<br /><br />There have been big pro independence leads in the past - but ultimately they came to nothing. I've made this point several times. Each time it has been ignored.Aldohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03385445471036440872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-37987922822981422422015-09-11T23:43:40.116+01:002015-09-11T23:43:40.116+01:00Douglas I am informed the Nat sis are planning an...Douglas I am informed the Nat sis are planning another flag waving session in Glasgow next week..

The same thing could also be said about Dugdale. Labour might have jumped three percentage points but that is the Corbyn effect,certainly not Dugdales performance at Holyrood. As for Rennie and the Lib/Dems,the only outstanding factor about them is their total irrelevance.Off topic,taking into consideration the Peter Principle,the Dunning-Kruger effect and the Dilbert Principle,isn't GWC the perfect example?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-44052475130052335382015-09-10T23:43:17.582+01:002015-09-10T23:43:17.582+01:00Time for my last glass of Pinot and a small Port ...Time for my last glass of Pinot and a small Port to celebrate the Queen and Service.

(Or is she, legitimately QEII in your eyes, which would explain the failure of history being taught in any school you attended. You are such a wind up GWC.)<br /><br />It would be interesting to know how many people, in what is now the Republic of Ireland, continued to display their Union Flag after independence, and what happened to them.<br /><br />Anyway, great joy with you raising the Butchers Apron in an Independent Scotland.<br /><br />May your life be long and not without incident!<br /><br />Seriously.<br /><br />Flags are crap.<br /><br /><br />[On a different note, thanks for reminding me about Glasgow's Trolleybuses.
