Devolution poll 8:25pm on 30 Jun 2009 #101 Oldnat

Couldn't agree more. I would dearly love to see some unionist posters bring some real ideas to the table here and open up some actual debate. If you're out there, we'll no bite, come hae a blether!
A delicate quadrille 00:54am on 25 Jun 2009 Some people are racist, others are not. Flags are neither. Lets not get distracted from the issues here. I won't dignify the ludicrous proposition RE. the Saltire further.

Why as contributors to UK general taxation are we not entitled to a share of UK contingency funds for what is clearly an unforeseen occurrence, namely the swine flu outbreak? Politics _are_ being played on this issue, but not by Nicola Sturgeon.

Absolutely. One of the benefits of independence is to have a mature relationship with our southern neighbour.The union is at the root of a lot of animosity between Scots and English folk. I look forward to having a relationship with England based on mutual respect, not the resentment on both sides that the present set up engenders.
A political career shelved 02:07am on 23 Jun 2009 Has anyone seen Brian Taylor? This blog has been going on for a while... I feel like I've been on a plane for weeks and it's still here... Nice to be home though :)

Let's hope it's true - about time too. What have they been waiting for, I wonder?

Quite a startling contrast, to be sure.

How about the Democratic Unionist Party of England and Scotland to differentiate them from the Northern Irish party of that name? ;-)

Which party? Which one do you think! As I'm not back in Scotland until Monday I haven't seen the mood on the street so to speak, but I'd like to think that people are smart enough to think of Labour first when it comes to sleaze in Scotland. After all, there just aren't many Tories...

Of course, no political system is perfect. I am under no illusion that in independent Scotland will be an utopia. My point is that some systems are more open and accountable than others, the UK being one of the least open and accountable as the last weeks and months have unquestionably shown. There are of course no guarantees but it would be difficult to come up with something worse. A system born in this age of mass communication and unprecedented access to information surely must improve on the Westminster midden. Public scrutiny of its genesis will not permit anything less.
A political career shelved 08:06am on 19 Jun 2009 I see the 'honourable' member for Livingston is literally using the 'big boy did it and ran away' excuse for his laminate flooring. Astounding! Who is this 'former employee' and what would they have had to gain by submitting false claims in Mr Devine's name?
