RAG Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 34 minutes ago, Mclean07 said: You would truly be independent anyway using the pound and having your interest rates set by the Bank of England......and keeping the Queen. Both are arguably for a transitional period, till the sort out the currency issue. The queens nearly 100 and with all the fine work Prince Charles does down your way, you're cutting off your nose despite your face slagging off the SNPs position on the monarchy. The future King of the UK actually does his bit in Ayrshire improving the place, which if you believe in a monarchy is exactly what they should do. You know that we have zero control over interest rates at present, unless like most Scottish unionists, you believe the tail wags the dog? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not exactly a radical, progressive new start though, is it? The ultimate symbol of the Union and the British class system. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because they know that there are deluded Labour Part supporters that still support her Maj & it would be a vote loser in English politics. I make no apoligies. I support independence & hopefully when that comes about we can get rid of the fuedal class sytsem & the sponging, dated Royals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuclear weapons, currency, EU Memership, the monarchy, are all issues for after independence. It should be a blank slate.

SNP MSP posts ignorant and wrong blog YEARS ago, SNP fins out she gets papped.

Zorro Posted June 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2018 I’m delighted the SNP hold their MP’s and MSP’s to higher standards than the unionist parties. Hopefully this is the benchmark for all parties after independence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if I was overheard 30 years ago while I was still a student, in The Doublet pub in Glasgow, after 5 pints of Stella, telling the assembled masses that women should stick to what they are good at, like looking after toddlers, and let men run the country, that would be a clear indisputable indication that I was unfit for public office? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was obviously a p*ss poor attempt at satire on a blog a decade ago. As for the restaurant "while working in the USA" stuff - that sort of stereotypical racial differences between group things the basis of a large portion American comedy. But if you're in government, you shouldn't indulge in satire and put it in a blog. Is just a stupid thing to do in what's essentially the snowflake years of twitter. The banter years died with the advent of internet. Edited July 3, 2018 by RAG 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is safe from Labour MP Jared. Gay people are "fudge packers", he wanted an orgy with Girls Aloud & Jamie Cullum “sodomised with his own piano”. LABOUR "the party of equal opportunities and diversity”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
