Chaos in Scotland.

[om15]

Yes I do see a problem with it, I see an increasing similarity between the SNP Scotland and the Third Reich in the 1930's, pick a race or group of people and relentlessly convince your own people that they are the cause of all your own problems, introduce minor laws curtailing freedoms and once established increase the controls, eliminate freedom of speech, and ultimately carry out euthanasia on your own citizens.

I believe the leftie liberal press such as the Guardian and the BBC hold responsibilities here, instead of sucking up to the SNP and marveling at their success's they should be holding them to account for their failures.

The SNP are an insidious and destructive element in the UK, the sooner that this is understood and dealt with the better, however since Brexit the lefties in the UK have been trounced at the referendum and the last election, so they now have in Sturgeon a figurehead that hates Tories, hates the English and wants to destroy the UK, hence the support she is getting.

Has the Celtic footballer who nipped over to Spain and back without quarantining been charged with an offence? Can he be executed? (paging BM and his 'machine')

Can Celtic play with 10 men? Can they play with 11...................

[4mastacker]

They could always play with themselves.......

Worth watching I am sure...

Four years ago, film-maker Anthony Baxter made a documentary about Donald Trump’s corporate behaviour in Scotland that gave people here an idea of how his arrogance and racism feels. But despite being shown to critics and appearing at festivals, his film was buried in a blizzard of legal threats, and never really got publicly shown. Only now has Baxter found a distributor to take it on. In fact, this film is a sequel.

The first film, You’ve Been Trumped in 2012, was about Trump’s breathtaking arrogance in attempting to vandalise a beautiful coastline near Aberdeen to build a golf resort, making all sorts of bland promises on job creation (the sort that he made to US citizens before the presidential election) and finding that the Scottish political establishment was an absolute pushover.

This second film returned in 2016 to find that a local, courageous widow, Molly Forbes, had refused to sell up and believes that Trump’s functionaries had cut off her water supply, to which they had access through neighbouring land they did control. He also put up Mexican-style walls around his property to impose his ugly territorial rule over the troublesome locals. Baxter’s film now looks more urgent than ever: in 2016, he was showing us what Trump rule actually looked like – right here, on our doorstep. Our cultural cringe to him was a mirror to what might happen in the US. Mrs Forbes and her family battle on, in the face of the Trump organisation’s high-handedness and the Scottish political establishment’s supine attitude.

Now that Trump’s poll numbers have weakened and America’s worsening Covid-19 horror has revealed his presidency in all its grotesque incompetence, it seems more relevant than ever to watch Anthony Baxter’s film about the president’s vanity fiefdom in Scotland, supported by our complaisant politicians.

You’ve Been Trumped Too is out on digital platforms from 18 August.

Wee Nippysweetie has today admitted publically that in Scotland the R₀ figure is above 1, ie the rate of infection is increasing, no longer decreasing.

As ever, she's totally confused as to what to do about it.

Seems that she's waiting for Boris to take the lead and do something and then follow his lead while pretending not to.

Meanwhile, the Furryboots cluster has spread to Peterheid, though quite why any yooman bean would ever want to go that godawful place is beyond my comprehension. It's also spreading again in Weegieland.

Despite all the available science, she's still insisting that there should be no social distancing in schools. What could possibly go wrong?

Expect one of those 'unexpected' flipflops quite soon.

[om15]

Others view the stupid and provocative proposals of Boris Johnson with the same disdain that we do

[barkingmad]

As we regard with pride, admiration and emotional welling up of tears in our eyes, the various infrastructure projects in the UK which are adorned with the EU flag proudly proclaiming they’ve been funded by the EU(SSR), let us not forget the money which came from that superstate to help us poor UK peasants had already been removed from our own hands.

Then the project only ‘earned’ the award of funding if THEY approved it in the first place.

And finally, adding insult to injury, the project only went ahead if we the UK peasants stumped up from our already depleted coffers an equivalent sum to the ‘award’ to cover the cost of the bypass, swimming pool or whatever.

Can you imagine any of us willingly signing up to such a deal with whichever Fawlty Towers-style builders who proposed such a deal for our home improvements?

This is the sort of ‘deal’ so enthusiastically endorsed by the current Jockistan ruling junta, so in this particular case I support the attempt by BoJo to puncture the inflated Krankie ego.

[om15]

Trouble is BM, it won't do that, it will just lead to a series of defaced buildings with the union jack on, Sturgeon will milk this for all she is worth.

Johnson needs to get the best deal possible post Brexit with the EU and the rest of the world, then carry out divorce negotiations with Sturgeon, get a deal then hold a referendum on that deal, any other way is a waste of time. The only people that can input into the present situation is the Unionists in Scotland, anything, and I mean anything, that Johnson and the UK Government does will only backfire.
The Scottish Unionists seem very quiet, or perhaps that there aren't any.

[Undried Plum]

The Scottish Unionists seem very quiet, or perhaps that there aren't any.

The really clever thing that the SNumPtie separatists did was was to hijack the words 'Nationalist' and 'Nationalism'.

Unionists are nationalists too, of course, but the word has been subverted by der NazionalSocialismus Partei as their own.

We, the people of Scotland, are all nationalists, just in different ways from oneanother.

[barkingmad]

om15, I’d rather see ‘defaced buildings’ with the Union flag in preference to the EUSSR golden stars (which they are anything but...) defacing subsequent home-financed projects.

That is, if there’s any dosh left from the “money tree” post-Covid-1984 panic measures implementation invoices.

[barkingmad]

This one pulled from the phone taps on the Jockistan Branch Covidian Sect compound;

“Devi Sridhar, Professor of Global Public Health at Edinburgh University, had a piece in the New York Times on Saturday in which she warned of “a stream of incoming infections from England and Wales” and urged Nicola Sturgeon and other European leaders to impose a new quarantine policy whereby all visitors should be tested on arrival, quarantined for five days, and then tested again before being allowed out. “There has to be enforced isolation until two negative tests at least five days apart,” she wrote.

Yes, this will probably interfere with plans to enjoy the beaches of Marbella. But the summer, while infection rates still remain relatively low, is the only time to make this work.

Going into winter with hundreds of cases per day means risking a steep rise once temperatures cool, schools reopen and people head back indoors. It means risking a second round of national lockdowns, which would be catastrophic for mental health and for economies. (And let’s leave aside the question of whether or not it will actually be possible to get people to comply the second time around.)
This is un-evidenced nonsense, even by Prof Sridhar’s standards. She cites rising infections in Spain as a reason English visitors to Scotland could pose a threat, which is odd because any English holidaymakers returning from Spain have to quarantine for 14 days. And how many English people are planning to travel to Scotland for a second summer break, having just returned from a European holiday? She also takes it for granted that if the people of the United Kingdom don’t eliminate the virus in the remaining weeks of summer we face a catastrophic second wave this winter, ignoring the evidence that the virus has largely burnt itself out (and no thanks to the lockdown).

Prof Sridhar’s comments have been condemned by Willie Rennie, the leader of the Scottish Liberal Democrats, for “feeding a divisive nationalist narrative without scientific evidence to back it up”.

“It’s news to me that people from England and Wales were responsible for the outbreaks we’ve seen in Aberdeen, Orkney, Lanarkshire and Glasgow,” he said.
Alan Cochrane in today’s Telegraph also has a pop.

Now as an epidemiologist we must take her view seriously but we are entitled to ask (a) is she right in her assessment if the risk and (b) is she wise in her use of language?

These are fractious times politically and the professor’s last suggestion that English visitors might be quarantined in Scotland led to several SNP demonstrators staging a stupid anti-English stunt at the border after it was backed by Nicola Sturgeon.

The professor has ‘form’ for inflaming feelings and landed in trouble when she said that Unionists were anti-Scottish. She later withdrew that assertion, saying that she had “misspoke” – whatever that means.

Then there was the occasion the professor appeared to be opposing the SNP government over the timing of schools reopening only to fall into line within 24 hours.
Perhaps it’s time to dial in that ego and retreat from the public stage, Prof Sridhar?”

Assuming the English and the Viet-Taffs returning from the warm beaches of Spain would be flocking northwards in their droves to enjoy the breezy fresh air of the Western Isles Riviera?

That hard Border from just north of Berwick-on-Tweed seems be getting closer to a reality? The last word in that sentence gives the game away...

[om15]

I read the cv of Professor Devi Sridhar out of interest after listening to her on the wireless, she came across as an SNP puppet, she managed to make several references as to how better the SNP were compared to the Westminster Government, she is very highly qualified and an achiever.
This makes it strange that she has become an SNP mouthpiece, perhaps she has to be to hold the job in Sturgeons tartan utopia. She dropped a ballcock a couple of weeks ago when she tweeted that unionists were anti Scottish.
Perhaps professors don't need to be that bright these days.

[om15]

Here is our mate again, what I find very interesting are the comments from the viewers, no SNP supporters there, what do our Scottish correspondents make of all this

[barkingmad]

Aaaah yes, that old conundrum, the Indyref!

Not only is it NOT any longer the “once in a lifetime” plebiscite but it might have to involve something more than IN/OUT options in accordance with their objections to Brexit.

At least the border wall and customs posts should provide employment for years to come.

But what will the Scottish unit of currency be called until such times as Jockistan is comfortably snuggled under the duvet with the other 27 captives?

[G-CPTN]

But what will the Scottish unit of currency be called until such times as Jockistan is comfortably snuggled under the duvet with the other 27 captives?

The bawbee.

[FD2]

That used to be enough to buy a wife in Edinburgh in the old days and still have change for some smokes.

[Undried Plum]

One of the reasons why Salmond lost the Referendum was because he just hadn't figured out how to have an independent currency without that country having control of its own currency.

His idea of having The Bank of England, who had already refused to take on the job, as being independent Scotland's National Bank was absurd.

An infamous jewish central bankster, Mayer Amschel Rothschild, once said: "Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws!".

[barkingmad]

It would appear that the Peoples’ Republic of Jockistan are beating England in the race for complete domination of the long-suffering subservient peasants;



I am still getting used to hearing Neil Oliver speaking out against this sort of Orwellian nightmare having become familiar with his historical output on MSM.

It can only be a matter of time before he is “cancelled” and cast out into the darkness with Lawrence Fox and some of the other rebels who’ve fallen foul of the Diktators?

[barkingmad]

Much as I criticise the BBC I succumbed to the temptation to watch the BBC2 show on the Trial of Alex Salmond which I’d recorded for the nights when SFA of interest is scheduled.

Despite the trial verdict I came away from the episode sensing that all is not good in the SNP heaven and that after this inquiry into Wee Krankie’s input as the scandal was breaking there may be a change of heart amongst those who aspire to form the Peoples’ Republic of Jockistan anytime soon.

Between the stench of ordure which will permeate the atmosphere following a ‘genuine’ inquiry, the collapse in the oil price, the shaftng of the fishermen by past and possibly future EUSSR interference, the reality of their ‘independence’ within the EU and which currency to use as they transition into the EU after 7 years of begging and negotiations will hopefully all combine to demonstrate the idea is a busted flush.

But nationalism is a strong emotion and though the English are denied such aspirations on the grounds of it being ‘racist and xenophobic’ it’s all acceptable for the Jocks and the Viet-Taff to aspire to such dreamy heights.

[Ibbie]

We will find out next, that Krankie was considering a guy named Bannon to build a border wall with England!
