We hate Westminster, as do many English people, especially those who despise paedophiles and people who murder the disabled and vulnerable by cutting their benefits. And Scotland-hating trolls like you. Why don't you just shut up, take your one tired 'nat si' (which could far more easily apply to English nationalists) phrase, and just go crawl back up yer own bahookie, where your head is hiding? Seriously. You're a clown, a chimp, a semi-evolved, semi-sentient simian, and your deranged, tired, one-note Scotland-hating crap adds precisely ZERO to any debate.Who Rattled Your Cagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08280299648408032630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-60026789185405231412017-11-19T12:55:49.806+00:002017-11-19T12:55:49.806+00:00'nat si.'

He was really interesting and seemed particularly upset that regular readers could/would not understand the difference between news reportage and opinion pieces. (I myself often couldn't see the difference in the Herald's coverage, but I'm no expert). He was also not a fan of the SNPBad hashtag. I didn't get the feeling he was a Unionist, he could easily be a purist Yesser who thinks the Scottish government needs to be challenged by the press (as every democratic government would want to be). When he blocked me I was really mystified. No doubt that's because I can't see my own mouth-frothing bias, but our conversations had seemed so uniformly polite and friendly it did seem a bit odd. I concluded that at least it was a good thing that he'd taken the time, out of what I assume is a very busy journalistic day, to engage with us 'civilians' at all. He deserves thanks for that, because so few mainstream journalists even attempt it. You do get the feeling he doesn't like to be gainsaid, but since in the past the only disagreement they ever had was in the highly selective Readers Letters page perhaps we can forgive him that. Maybe he blocks so many people so readily because he just gets bored with us?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02145551545356165320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-41345535888647727972017-11-18T02:48:52.042+00:002017-11-18T02:48:52.042+00:00ooohhh, I seem to have struck a cord...

After all, he's the journalist and knows better than all us ignorant punters. Sad. He replies below the line in the Herald, the only one that does, and though it's at times to clarify a point, other times it's to tell someone, not very politely, that what they say is wrong - when it's a matter of opinion not a "fact".<br /><br />Edit: Good grief, these captchas keep going and going and going and are absolutely brutally bad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-16796528489740442302017-11-17T20:50:15.641+00:002017-11-17T20:50:15.641+00:00Perhaps David is not so widely read/followed on tw...Perhaps David is not so widely read/followed on twitter, for that to be considered worthwhile.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-89274743695174182452017-11-17T14:16:45.119+00:002017-11-17T14:16:45.119+00:00In a normal country it would be amazing that a hap...In a normal country it would be amazing that a hapless soul like Rape Clause Ruth would be chosen as Politician of the Year.Iainnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-930120922627919768.post-70324526381707268102017-11-17T11:22:54.251+00:002017-11-17T11:22:54.251+00:00Big Babe Tank Commander is politician of the year ...Big Babe Tank Commander is politician of the year in Jocko Land.<br />What a state of affairs.<br />Cut the waster MSP'S by half.
