Aren’t the unionistas amazing! They say that all the Nats have to do is get a majority in the Scottish Parliament then we can have our referendum no questions asked. Of course all the while they are sniggering up their sleeves because they designed the very system to make sure that they would always have a cross party majority. Then oops the SNP go and do several amazing and impossible things all in one day. Then it’s a quick scramble to re-arrange the goalposts.

Don’t tell me he doesn’t see the irony of that, given that we are supposed to live in some sort of democracy (albeit not much of one).<br /><br />Secondly he thinks Cameron should listen to old Muddle head himself... Not advice I’d be likely to give anyone. Cameron didn’t even think he was good enough to be Sec of State for Scotland, one of the non jobs of the cabinet that my gran’s cat could do.<br /><br />The he says that the Liberal Democrats are dead in the water north of the border. Well yeah; they are only dead ion the water because they are in league with the Tories, who have been dead in the water since Forsyth killed off any interest in them at all.<br /><br />Then TOTALLY out of touch, he suggests that we should be hit with a cross party of the most repulsive, disliked people in the country... I would have thought he would have had plenty of examples now of how badly the Liberals and Tories work together... add the idiot phone thrower, the Celtic chairman, the “dead in the water” Liberals, which he had just derided, Alistair Darling who’s chancellorship we are still paying for, Malcolm Plummy Rifkind, for god’s sake Michael Forsyth and worst of all Tony Bloody Blair, and all led by Botox Boy himself.<br /><br />They are all millionaires, many of them have titles. It sounds like the Devil’s football team. They’d get laughed out, or stoned out of the country.<br /><br />We voted SNP; we knew there would be a referendum. We are not all the drunk, betting shop, subsidy junkies you think we are. We have schools, and universities and some of us can read. Can we be trusted to make a choice?<br /><br />They should be careful. If they send all these people up to tell us what we must do, they could turn the tide for us.<br /><br />They must be very afraid of losing us.
