      And here is their Ghanaian youth wing.



      I don't like the OO, but there is a story that in the 1970's the National Front requested a meeting with the OO to discuss a political link up, and the OO sent their most senior black member to tell them where to go. I hope it's true.

        I've heard it's a true story, they also told UKIP to stick it as well.

          I recall living in South Africa when the USA appointed a new ambassador, who just happened to be black. That made things a bit difficult
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            Was not in town last week, seems to be quite a bit of yes stuff going on today. The 2 stalls I seen about 50% of the signs were pretty much "end London rule" and "sack the tories." I don't know what it is like to live in the Crimea just now but some people clearly think we are on a par with it.

              It is a feckin shambles and that is with the oil included. The SNP openly state we put in more than we receive. We don't and have not for a generation made more than we get.
              Serious question on the figs you have given us here:

              Are the 'Scottish' figures actually worked out correctly, i.e. all income tax, NI, corporation tax, VAT, alcohol duty, cigarette duty and loads of others I can't be arsed thinking of included ?

              Because, if they are, that would mean that in 21/22 years, Scotland would have an accumulated debt roughly similar to the UK for the first 9 months of this year.

              if you removed Scotland's share of the UK debt servicing from your figures, that would indicate that we should have become independent in 1979 and would be a tulip load better off now.

                Part of me hopes they go as I've thrived more under pure Conservative government (rather than coalition).

                What will Alex Salmond do when it turns to tulip though?
                A) Apologise to all
                B) Blame the English

                  The Tories have blamed Labour more or less for one entire term of government. So I should think blaming the English for the next 300 years be they way to go.

                    I'm Scottish - read the invective from the 'Yes' voters on this site.

                    It'll be 'B'.
