Reply to: Back to normal

[darmstadt]

Blair is a Scot with an English constituency. Brown is a Scottish MP. As were a large proportion of the cabinet at the time of when the UK was taken into the war. Only that oily little turd Robin Cook stood against the invasion.
The Scots therefore had a disproportionatley large influence over the iraq war

Tony Blair's father was actually English (Charles Leonard Augustus Parsons born in Filey, Yorkshire) but adopted by a Scottish family and his mother, Hazel Blair was Irish but facts never bothered the righties :-)

Yep. CUK is indeed back to normal.

Between 1997 and 2005 at least 20% of the members of the cabinet were Middle England MPs and yet they whine and whine that they are not properly represented

FTFY

I thought the opposition at the time were united with the government, before it turned out all the intelligence wasn't very.

Yes, like the MPs giving themselves a 10% pay rise and bombing the tulip out of the Middle East. Oh, and not forgetting £100 Billion on Trident.

It was more a collective sigh of relief because more than anything it would have been an incredibly costly task to seperate Scotland from the rest of the UK.

You only need find a good pavement to get rid that gum stuck to your shoe.

I do not really think amyone celebrated the No result.

And it would have taken up funds that quite frankly can be used a lot more effectively elsewhere.

Pictures taken yesterday.. Meanwhile we're about to spend wods on a war with ISIS.

Och hoots man, not in my name. We're all wee cowardly custards here in Jockland.
