First Minister: "Mr Cameron chose to
invoke the memory of John Smith on the eve of his visit to Scotland. I was a
Westminster counterpart of John Smith when Mr Cameron was an adviser to a Tory
Chancellor.
"At that time, John Smith believed in a Scottish Parliament
– David Cameron didn’t.
“John Smith believed in a fairer society – David Cameron
didn’t.
“I knew John Smith, and David Cameron is no John Smith.”
**********
Cameron's visit was somewhat marred by the release of statistics from the Office for National Statistics which show the distribution of wealth (pensions, savings,
property and investments) in the UK.
They illustrate the social
and geographic imbalances that have developed under London Rule.
The ONS reports, "the median household total wealth for
Scotland is a fifth (20%) lower than the corresponding value for Wales and over
a quarter 26%) lower than the value for England. For more information look here.
Voting no means that you are satisfied that although you contribute more to the pot, you are going to be very very much poorer than people in England.
And they tell us that English taxes subsidies us... What a bloody joke.
