Excellent blog – loved the item on Britain's Ticking Time Bombs. Keep up the good work – we need more like this to inform people not just in Scotland, but the rest of the world, and specifically the rest of the UK. I have English friends who are genuinely ignorant of most of the facts and figures about the Union, and some of the blatantly manufactured myths about Scotland, peddled by the elite of the English society. They are essentially racist, and treat Scotland in the same manner they have done with every single other country they have 'colonised' – plundered for whatever the mother country needs with no regard for the local population. The only difference with Scotland being the fact that we share an island so they called it a 'union' to settle the restless natives sitting on their doorstep
I'm enjoying reading this blog more power to your typwriter.
