Well, you're spoilt for choice as far as 'just a little note' is concerned this afternoon. I have a reaction piece in the International Business Times about the Supreme Court effectively ruling that "The Vow" was a sham, and the Tories' irrationally jubilant reaction to that news. You can read it HERE.
And I also have an article on the TalkRadio website about what the rogue Trident missile may have been trying to tell us when it went off on its hols to America. You can read that one HERE.

Tories,being primitive humans who haven't developed much beyond childhood,are driven by immediate needs and have no concept of the longer term or anything much beyond self.
ReplyDeleteThey should be treated as children who are not yet sufficiently developed to make responsible decisions.
This appears to be mainly understood in Scotland but unfortunately not in England.
Your description would be more aptly applied to socialism - a childlike ideology that forgets or ignores the simple fact that somebody has to pay for everything. If a teenager could have free reign over his parents' bank account, it probably wouldn't end well. The parents are there to say 'no' and teach the value of money. In this situation you can consider the parent the 'tory' and the child the 'socialist'.

DeleteThey don't need to hold it this year. They don't even need to organise it this year. But a commitment to hold one before 2020 is the least you'd expect from so many red lines being absolutely smashed and broken. The SNP are scared and lacking in principles.

DeleteOpinion seems to be coalescing around the idea that the SNP will hold their independence referendum in Autumn of 2018. So if that's to happen you would expect some political movement by the end of this year. The process of putting a bill through Holyrood, consulting Westminster, Westminster approval, electoral commission approval, fundraising and campaigning will take a fair chunk of time. So no movement by the end of this year, at all, signals no referendum in 2018 either. That leaves 2019 and 2020. But we brexit in March 2019.
DeleteAldo, I reckon they will never go for it. All those useless Nat si wasters in Holyrood and Westminster milking the British taxpayer.

However it will be the Nat si political elite who will fuck you. The age old story of raking in the dosh without working for it will change minds and it is already happening. They are not calling for a referendum now Conan old chap are they? And you seem well aquainted with the Mail! Personally I have never read it.
Good point GWC. The 54 would be without a job post independence. No more London, no more posh restaurants and hotels and impressionable young English women (they don't mind THAT union!). No. They'll just have some consolation post up here as the place disintegrates around them. Within 2 years of independence, the SNP will be as popular as herpes.
DeleteIf I were them, I'd want the status quo to continue. Whinge and whine, hoover up the eejit vote, and never have to implement anything apart from intercourse with female journos.
Aldo, you forgot to mention impressionable English boys! I should have mentioned Clap am Common.
DeleteHaha! That's some imagery! Scot Nat in bed with Englishman. Everyone would want to know who the 'top' was! :0)
DeleteWee nippy: It pains me tae say that oor one time glorious leader Salmondo the first was done up the bahookie yesterday on Clapham common and that this makes the prospect of a Scottish independence referendum even more likely.
DeleteSo today we found out scottish trade with RUK is worth 4 times that of its trade with the rest of the EU.
ReplyDeleteLogic:
Lemma A. Leaving the EU will make it very hard for the UK to trade with EU countries
Lemma B. Leaving the UK will mean Scotland can join/stay in the EU.
A logician: Therefore the rest of the UK will find it hard to trade with Scotland, an EU member
A nat "alternative" logician: Therefore the rest of the UK will trade no problems with Scotland, an EU member
Let's face it, the SNP are just UKIP but even more parochial, with an economic stance 4 times as stupid. Same pipe dreams about having their cake and eating it. Same moans about some supra-national union taking all their monies. Same shite about taking their country back.
All trade will immediately stop of course. No travel. No Electricity trickling it's way South. No Trains. All traffic stops at Cardiff...
ReplyDeleteAnd there are morons who *will* believe this. Nice one unionists.
The baseless reassurances gnatters feed us about scotland leaving the uk, are the same baseless reassurances little quitlers feed us about the UK leaving the EU. In fact I'm fairly sure UKIP just took the SNPs white paper and did a search and replace on "Westminster" with "Brussels".
DeleteIf the UK leaving the EU is bad for trade, then scotland leaving the UK will be 4x badderer for trade as figures showed today. On the other hand, if it makes no difference, then why bother?
The SNP's solution to the UK sawing off the branch they are sitting on is to see if they can saw off their own bit of branch as well on the way down.
The worst case scenario tradewise is a 10% border tarriff between Scotland and England. That would be a 10% tarriff applied to 63% of our economy here in Scotland. May suggests a possible 10% tarriff on 15% of our economy. Sturgeon screams that this is absolutely terrible and must be avoided yet thinks it's okay to expose 63% of our economy to the same tarriff. It's like choosing to amputate your leg rather than your toe. Absolutely completely mental.
DeleteWhat the Hell are you dribbling on about you sad little wankstain?
DeleteYou are exaggerating Conan. We do not know what will happen until political events take there course. What is definate is there will be border controls if Scotland pursues a seperate immigration policy from England. England knows that most would be migrants would use Scotland as a landing craft to get to England. Ice cold Scotland is not very attractive!
DeleteThey want to get to London and the South East - the big lights. They have no interest in living in Scotland, a backwater with limited options. If we're not careful we'll end up with chants of 'build the wall' and 'make Scotland pay'.
DeleteTory twit is dumb enough to mention a "white paper" on the day Kipper Theresa was forced into a humiliating u-turn on not having one by one half of her own still deeply divided party.
DeleteJust after being humiliated for a second time in the courts for their Brexit idiocy.
Just wait till the three Brexit stooges attempt to find their own arse with a flashlight and see if there are any trade deals up there.
You can spout your sub-Daily Mail bullshit all you wish but nobody here is stupid enough to believe it.
The kipper tories aren't exactly well liked or trusted in scotland, since you don't have a clue about scottish politics any more than politics in general.
Bogus argument from a govt that tells Ireland that, post Brexit, it won't have to choose between trade with EU and UK.
DeleteThe Scots do not have clue about Scottish politics except for the fact that there seems to be a lot of Scottish poiticians and they wonder why and what they do.
DeleteMick, you predicted calamity for the conservatives by now. But they are 15 points ahead in the polls and even doing well in Scotland.
DeleteYou predicted calamity after brexit. Well, business knows its coming. So why is the UK economy growing and the stock market booming?
And who are you accusing of not having a clue about Scottish politics - the people who won the referendum??
If anyone is absolutely clueless it's you and others like you. You just don't seem to understand how the world works. Your hatred of England and all things even vaguely conservative has blinded you and removed your capacity for logical thought.
"Bogus argument from a govt that tells Ireland that, post Brexit, it won't have to choose between trade with EU and UK."
DeleteCorrect, Ireland won't choose, since it's still in the EU it'll be told by the EU that free trade with UK isn't on.
Ireland will have to choose, in the event that no deal is done. Of course, it will be the EU that forces the issue. Britain is open to continuing free trade, provided the Europeans are.
DeleteAye. Get to Italy on a raft. Decide to get to England the same way the Armada didn't.
DeleteHow To Terrify Morons Who Think That People With Arabic Names Will Blow Them Up Whilst Stealing Their Jobs.
Westminster CHAOS was explicitly predicted for 2016 while the dumbest faction of the tories (of which you are the most hilarious example here) thought it would be smooth sailing with Cameron *snigger* and the tories crushing all before them in the EU referendum.
DeleteHow did the prediction - long, loooooong before the EU referendum took place -that it would be ALL about immigration, immigration immigration turn out?
The one you thought was wrong and didn't matter?
You've already lost one MP who quit after saying May was turning the tories into the kippers and he won't be the last.
Since you bring up logical thought then try displaying it for once in your life.
Kipper Theresa didn't cave in to the tory faction of her party and anger the kipper half over the white paper because there was only a handful of them and they are impotent.
There was and is still MORE than enough tories on that half of the split to bring her down should they choose.
That's what happens when you have a tiny majority and seem intent on pushing yet more tories out the party by trying (and failing) to appease Farage and the kippers. (yet again)
As for the polling, if you believe the figures then why NOT have that G.E. ? Hmmm?
We're ready for one, so why aren't the tories?
Why doesn't Kipper Theresa finally get a mandate from someone other than her comedy MPs who only made her PM because she was the last one standing in the usual tory teachery and backstabbing slapstick contest.
You've been caught red-handed on here spouting hatred for scottish people multiple times.
So your feeble lies about me only serve to highlight how much of a detestable scumbag you are.
PROVE a word of your lies or fuck off back to Stormfront Lite where you belong with the other racist sewer dwellers.
Because after this you can fully expect to get blasted with your own wordsevery single time you troll this site.
You've also spouted hatred of the disabled and handicapped because you're THAT type of Daily Mail waste of oxygen.
Did you throw broken glass at the disabled as a child or just when you 'proudly' outed yourself as a kippertory, you wretched excuse for a human being?
Does anybody else on here remember when having a large trade surplus was a good thing?
ReplyDeleteIt's not a good thing, or a bad thing. It's just a thing.
DeleteIt's like interest rates, inflation, exchange rates and a bunch of other economic indicators. It's good in some ways, bad in others.

ReplyDeletePaul Lewis Retweeted UK Defence Journal
According to defence journal our test of an independent nuclear deterrent was terminated by its US controller!
Big deal? Our defence policy is in lockstep with the USA anyway.
DeleteNATO
DeleteDoing well in Scotland. Do fuck off. How many MPs do thy have again?
ReplyDeleteOh yes, they've one again...
But 31 in the Scottish Parliament. If the UKIP vote in Scotland is eliminated by brexit and added to the Tory vote, that's 28% of people who could realistically vote Tory next time around. That will turn all of the borders and most of Perthshire and the North East blue.
Deletejames.
ReplyDeleteAny news on future opinion polls?
BTW thanks for a great blog.
