Typical Scot with a chip on his shoulder

Sooner we cut loose Scotland the better. No more Scottish MPs in Westminster.

The UK changed, places of work now come with a bar?

How do they ever get anything done?

They always have MF

Up nawf, there is a civil service building near me, which in my youth, I had the misfortune to contract at (they had to get contractors in as permies had a high suicide/crime rate because civil service breeds aresholes). In the building they had smoking rooms (until the ban) and still have a nice solid wooden bar with snooker and pool tables. You are allowed to utilise the facilities during work hour breaks so long as you don't get hammered but in civil service you can never tell as they are so adept at breaking peoples spirits most desks/people look like this:

Hear hear!

You don't strike me as a tipping type.

When the moment takes me.

Plus I was on a promise.

You can't touch me, officers, I'm an MP, said Eric Joyce - Telegraph

What has this got to do with him Scottish? He would have behaved as badly if English.

Bigger issue is that MPs are out of touch with the electorate. And too in touch with each other.

Are we playing jeopardy? Oooo my answer to that clue:

On a serious note, I'm not accusing you of that at all .......

However, just saying that you would only be a polite functioning human being just because you think some loose knickered woman might give it up to you is a bit creepy/perverted.

Nahhhhh, only a silly Scot drinks a can of special brew and then tries to start a fight with everyone around them. Reminds me of one of my favourite Scottish (well cartoon character counts right?) quotes:

Brothers and sisters are natural enemies. Like Englishmen and Scots! Or Welshmen and Scots! Or Japanese and Scots! Or Scots and other Scots! Damn Scots! They ruined Scotland!

Bigger issue is that MPs are out of touch with the electorate. And too in touch with each other.

Indeed and frankly this is getting annoying.

The most recent one is the masking of cigarettes in supermarkets:
- Hiding a product before sale and not displaying the price for it is illegal in itself.
- Making the product more taboo/black market-ish just increases the appeal to younger people as in a child's mind you only hide something because it's good!
- Prohibition or steps towards it, doesn't work, this point was proved with alcohol and we have had centuries to learn this.
- So children cant be exposed to a glittery smoke packet for fears of depravity, but porn magazines right next to the children's colouring books are fine? Ramming a cucumber up a woman's arse isn't sex education either.

Shops of all kinds from supermarkets to independent newsagents put lads' magazines as well as porn ones on the top shelf. They have done that for a few years now.

Kids are more likely to get their colouring books placed on the bottom shelf next to Hello or Bella.

Some shops have made an effort, yes, I will concede that. However the problem is still out there:




My point is though, if the kids can see it at all, it is still more objectionable than a glittery cigarette packet. Moving it a little still doesn't solve the issue although it is a step in the right direction.
