Scottish Referendum Part 2 - Electric Boogaloo

[d000hg]

You do realise that you're asking a bunch of champagne socialists not to cock the economy up, don't you?

It's going to seem wonderful until they've run out of other peoples' money to spend.

I know it's a nice phrase but "spending other people's money" is kind of the definition of central government spending regardless who is in power, when one actually thinks about it.

Of course not. I took advantage of the "Right to Pie" option.

FTFY

Or 3) they get independence, wee Jimmy has a statue of herself commissioned in a similar vein to Diane Abbott's £10k portrait (usual thing socialists sorts do, eh?) and bankrupt the country without actually doing a thing for you then blame the Tories.

Interesting that all the remain voters up there are considering abandoning the "better together" mantra. :S

Interestingly it seems that the elf-employed free loaders are intent on bankrupting the economy having now blown a huge whole in the Hammond's budget, with their whining.

I think it is fair to say the SNP have not got through this week well.

The idea that Scotland is a basket case is an exaggeration.

When was the last time you were here?

Indeed it is.

Which Westminster politician was it that said 'this is a good day to bury bad news' when 2,000 plus people lost their lives as the twin towers were burning?

I don't believe Jo Moore was a politician...

Do you not think there is a difference between Roseanna Cunningham, an elected MSP holding a cabinet secretary position; and Jo Moore, a Press Officer and Professional Silly Bint?

Jo Moore resigned, perhaps Cunningham should resign too?

Ever since Britain voted to leave the EU, Berlin has pledged Edinburgh its support for efforts to remain in the common bloc if Scotland decided to split from the United Kingdom. Just three days after the referendum, the head of the EU affairs committee in the German parliament said that “the EU will continue to have 28 member states, as I expect another independence referendum in Scotland.” Shortly after, then-Economy Minister and Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel (who has since become foreign minister) promised Edinburgh that “the EU will certainly take in Scotland, if [it] wants to leave the U.K. and enter the EU.”

Pinning the independence tail on the EU donkey will in future be looked upon as the SNP's biggest mistake.

Embarrassing treatment afforded to our Prime Minister today.
