The strategic significance of Salmond's speech 7:26pm on 20 Oct 2009 Yet another great Hootsman front page from Pseudepigrapha.

The strategic significance of Salmond's speech 10:37pm on 18 Oct 2009 oldnat re 287

Jamieson must think that we have memories like hers and have forgotten the amount of social housing built during the eight years of Labour/Lib Dem miss rule.

Six houses built, thats less than one per year. A record to be proud off Cathy.
The strategic significance of Salmond's speech 10:29pm on 18 Oct 2009 Dean

I have told you before I live in the Kingdom.

If I had lived in Stirling I would have moved if Forsyth had been my MP. He has however my gratitude for almost destroying the torys in Scotland. Im glad that Cameron will be bringing him back to finally finish the job.

There was me thinking you were at that dinner in Milngavie, you must be in the same category as Mundell and Goldie, sometimes useful, but keep them in their place.
The strategic significance of Salmond's speech 9:04pm on 18 Oct 2009 Oh dear Dean.

After all your, never, over my dead body etc, the friends of Forsyth were not flying a kite after all.

Now heres a thought Dean, was Forsyth at that dinner in Miligavie???

Was Harvie not an admirer of Thatcher? Could it be a case of if you want my money Forsyth must be brought back, and since no one in Scotland would vote for him, it has to be unelected through the House of Lards (no not a misprint)

What a slogan for the general election.
Vote Labour and get torys plus the orange order.
Vote tory and get tory and Forsyth.
Vote Lib Dem and get some sympathy.
Vote SNP and get your country back.
The Salmond strategy 11:31am on 16 Oct 2009 Cassiel1991

Welcome, and I look forward to your posts.

I do however find it an insult that to have any coverage of the national governments conference we have to rely on a fellow blogger.

Remind me again what I pay my compulsory TV tax for?

Maybe the way to overcome this bias is to campaign against the TV tax.
The plebiscite to end all plebiscites 6:56pm on 15 Oct 2009 JRMacClure re 1070

You can always count on The Scotsman, read Maddox tomorrow he rarely misses the chance for a rant.

If anyone wants an example of why there is a lack of argument in defense of the union, only the too wee etc from bloggers, this is understandable as there is a distinct lack of positive argument from even Labour Scottish MPs.

This is from Tom Harris on his blog,

He is taken to task by some replys asking where the positives are. If he does not know what the benefits are what chance has the average unionist.
The plebiscite to end all plebiscites 3:11pm on 15 Oct 2009 Another remarkable report in The Times. Has Angus and The Times finally seen the light, or is this just a short term blip? Will normal service be resumed or do The Times judge there are more newspaper sales to be had by backing winners?

The plebiscite to end all plebiscites 2:30pm on 15 Oct 2009 JRMacClure re 1026

Indeed.

Very hard to make a monkey out of you Americans.
The plebiscite to end all plebiscites 2:27pm on 15 Oct 2009 Brian

It is really good to see Scotlands TV tax at work. Compare the coverage of the SNP conference today, if anyone can find it, with the coverage of the last three party conferences.

A good clue about what you should be covering is in your title. I think you are called BBC Scotland.

Just why do I have to pay the full rate of TV tax for a very second rate service.
The plebiscite to end all plebiscites 10:16am on 15 Oct 2009 My comment at 1023 was about Jim Murphy "challenging" Alex Salmond to a debate.

I used a metaphor about a street entertainer some of whom had a wild animal in tow.
