Some three years ago America organised a so-called “peace” deal with rogue state Iran (known as Persia before 1935), supposedly to stop them becoming a ‘nuclear power’, in exchange for six world powers [the US, UK, France, Russia, China, and Germany] unfreezing $100 billion of Iranian international assets, cancelling the punishing & biting sanctions […]
The polls show that the majority, and nearly double the number of people, think that the State should actually do more than it does now, than think it should do less – does that surprise us all then? If we look at the political parties then, those in favour of doing LESS include the Conservatives, […]
Did you know that a couple of weeks ago the Russians sent two bombers (one nuclear carrying) over to the UK? They were met by RAF Typhoon fighter aircraft of course but carefully kept themselves just outside British airspace, over the Channel no less. Normally when Russia sends threatening planes as an airspace […]
Just six weeks ago the Scots rejected their opportunity to paddle their own canoe. It was predicted here in such posts, that there would be knock-on effects, with un-envisaged impacts that could reverberate for a decade The first most obvious hares identified are still running of course; like will the UK Government actually deliver […]
Anyone who thinks that the turmoil of the past month on Scottish Independence was over on Friday 19th September 2014, has another think coming, surely? The fallout (in more than one sense of the word!) from the Referendum campaign, we can dread, is going to be felt far and wide for a considerable time? […]
Well at last the cat is out of the bag, as the saying goes. And it turns out to be a big scaredy-cat at that, doesn’t it? The timid Scottish nation (well the ‘stay-at-homers’, the ones without the nous to flee the nest like the majority of Scots), plus the foreign de-campers and squatters, […]
NO VOTERS YOU will vote NO if you think an Independent Scotland: makes you frightened or fearful, and you are constrained by benefits or loses, and Scotland is irresponsibly turning its back on England and Union is economically vulnerable and unable to fully pay its way, so can expect economic ruin can’t make it […]
The Chief Exec of a Group of four Football teams [one premiership outfit and three satellites] was totally fed up with a massive assertive groups of players causing them difficulties (by asking for better wages and bonuses treatment), and cleverly set out to bring them to heel and indeed destroy them completely. There was a […]
There can be no doubt now that the question of Scottish Independence has been handled abysmally by both those in charge of the UK’s Union destiny and by some others who will carry onerous responsibility for the outcome. The opinion polls have shown that the YESs and NOs are sharing the same ground […]
The Polls are providing ‘wobbling’ results for the Referendum. Why is that? It is because the ‘don’t knows’ are unaccounted for, different polls always give disparaging results and critically also both sides are running neck & neck so the differences are well within the normal margins of error – the vote is too […]
