Ashgrove and Independence a political analogy !

All Scottish Unionists would have the Scots believe that continued membership in the United Kingdom is the "Nirvana" we ought to aspire to and that it is the only way to prosper ! 

This though shows that the only way to prosper in the UK is to be "in with the In-Crowd"  !  

To try and show what a glib and frankly shameless liar that is the Prime Minister at this time, when Editor of the Spectator Magazine; had this printed in a 2004 edition; Hardly the work of a fan of Scotland! 

I ask my English friends; How would you feel with Johnson subscribing to this piece of prose for the English as opposed to the Scots ??

The Scotch – what a verminous race!

Canny, pushy, chippy, they’re all over the place, 

Battening off us with false bonhomie, 

Polluting our stock, undermining our economy.

Down with sandy hair and knobbly knees!

Suppress the tartan dwarves and the Wee Frees!

Ban the kilt, the skean-dhu and the sporran

As provocatively, offensively foreign!

It’s time Hadrian’s Wall was refortified

To pen them in a ghetto on the other side.

I would go further. The nation

Deserves not merely isolation

But comprehensive extermination.

We must not flinch from a solution.

I await legal prosecution.


My own comparison preference would be to compare Bunty and I having bought the house of our dreams (Ashgrove) and now we work at the fine tuning of the dream house in terms of decoration, furniture, flooring and the garden. 

In other words our own "Nirvana" is a work in progress but that with judicious financial planning and careful use of our resources we will have the real free house of our dreams! 

Likewise Independence !  It is not going to materialise overnight and there may well be adjustments and financial outlay that we have to make in order to have the country of our dreams, but living in a form of rented accommodation where the landlord is an overbearing, lying, misogynistic, narcissistic, immoral cheat is not where I want to live in the winter of my life!

So it is with Scotland as a "Home" for the population (irrespective of where they originate from), it won't happen overnight, but it will be a place that ultimately those who live in it will be considerably happier than they are at present (even if it does cost a bit more in terms of tax!)


A final thought to any "Unionist" reading this;

If Scotland is such a financial drain on the UK Treasury as is alleged by Unionists and Westminster, why are they so desperate to keep Scotland in the Union and never say "Right off you go Scotland" rather they are constantly carping about the benefits of the now defunct Union !  Could it be anything to do with;



Then there's the question of Nuclear Submarines (Trident) and the redundant ones being held at Rosyth!


Furthermore; The UK government secretly planned to dump the radioactive hulks of 22 nuclear submarines in the sea off north west Scotland, documents released by the National Archives reveal.

A survey for the Ministry of Defence (MoD) in 1989 identified six sites for “seabed storage” of defunct naval submarines near the islands of Skye, Mull and Barra for up to 60 years – and probably longer.

Detailed and highly confidential MoD studies concluded the plan was “feasible” and would “obviate the international problems which we would face were we to dispose of these vessels in international waters.”





Well Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson that will be over my dead body !
