The words of George Washington, the first American President, ring true in Scotland today as much as they did initially intend in the formation of the United States of America in the 18th century!
For those of us with Scottish Nationalist tendencies, events of the period post the 2014 referendum have been a bit of a roller-coaster.
The initial despondency of a relatively sore defeat was tempered by the fact that so many did vote for Independence. However the fact remained that the majority did not and indeed it has to be said that there was an 84.6% turn-out! So much so that the dirty tricks campaign orchestrated by Westminster had to go into overdrive with their "Project Fear"
Six years later and oh how events and circumstances have changed. Those years of Tory misrule have nurtured the plant of Independence with the finest manure that Cameron, May and now the top of the heap, Boris Johnson could summon and that is surely as much shite/manure as any plant needs to thrive !
It will be obvious that I have absolutely no love whatsoever for the Conservative & Unionist Party, but at least the former two gave off the appearance of Government and political gravitas.
The clown in charge of the dis-United Kingdom at this juncture is by any standard, a complete disaster !
There is no real doubt that Bojo wanted to get his picture on the wall of No 10 Downing Street like all the previous Prime Ministers and to that end he has succeeded!
Obviously though, it will be a formal portrait unlike the one above which shows him in a truer light.
For we Scots though, this last piece of pure unadulterated keeechh (manure/shite in dialect) will be shown to have provided the plant of Scottish Liberty with so much energy and perfect conditions to flourish that we ought to be grateful to the clown for his help.
Covid and Brexit will be the final nails in his political coffin but the flowering of the Jacobite Rose of Scotland !
