Wings Over Scotland

It gets a bit repetitive. You would expect certain members of the Press to be more creative with their language?

Young Mr Daisley seems quite nice.

Ah yes, but you have to swear at someone who has more than a certain level of cash in the bank for it to be news.

@wil Podmore.

Just someone who likes a balanced view of things.

Tit

A! unionism and journalism is that the level the EBC wishes us to aim for? Hypocrisy & Sleaze the English Broadcsting Corpse RIP standards and impartiality.

What a fucking disgrace.

Good to know that journos who complain about Online Cybernat abuse are above dishing it out themselves, Oh…

@ Will Podmore – fuck right off.

I’m deeply disappointed in the way Nicola Sturgeon allows herself to be used by the media in this way. Thank fuck I’m fucking off myself.

But Stuart, you told the right holy anointed sainted one to ‘fuck off’, in the righteous world of high morality we live in that is not allowed. Saint Joanne cannot be blasphemed she must be listened to and lauded as her perfumed farts travel downwind to tickle those chosen to follow her without question. Don’t fight what you can’t hope to win against, join the Church of Joanne and feel the love… and exclusive updates on the Harry Potter musical!

Just more unionist hypocrisy. I could swear about it but then I’d be accused of being a nasty Nat.

Rev, I am completely with you on this one. These carping unionists who were so very vocal, telling us weren’t a real country during the referendum, and insisted it is better we stay as an English colony, change their tune for Rugby.

Surely ‘Britain’ would be THEIR team. Shouting ‘Come on Scotland, come on Scotland’ for 80 bl*****g minutes, then ‘actually I prefer to be British’ afterwards. To such people, the word ‘Scotland’ is a mere social convenience, no more, no less. The rugby equivalent of football’s 90 minute patriots.

The mind numbing hypocrisy involved in all of it, is what really irks me.

Does anyone else get the impression that these characters are just a wee bit unhappy?

Things don’t seem to be going their way. 🙂

I hear you’ve been a naughty boy again, Rev….

In my estimation losing the rag is never, ever a good idea (although I unerstand it under the circumstances to the raw nerve of defeat).

I have never won an argument where I first insult the opposition. I prefer to grind them down with my insanely cheerful and constructive manner. Slowly but steadily. I may not convert the hardcore unionists (which is really impervious to thoughtful discourse) but at least my blood pressure stays withing toreable limits and I can always talk to them afterwards. That way I manage to pick of the middle, NO vote that can be reasoned with. That is the 20% we have to swing the next time. I’d even wager to say that Rowling might in that group to.

She pays her taxes to the London government not the Scottish one.

Reading those made me quite teary.

I can hear my dead, much missed, father in every ‘fuck’

Sniffles

made me fucking greet!

To all Brit Nats and 80 minute patriots – fuck off! Awa and greet you will no get a hug from me. Got that off my chest. Angra beat me to what I was going to say.

I bet Tolkien is turning in his fuckin grave that some arsehole used initials just like him, and wrote an inferior fantasy series that a fuckin Hobbit could have written.

Its weird googling Bliar MacDougal and JK Rowling in UKOK history

link to telegraph.co.uk

19 Sep 2014 – JK Rowling leads victory cry as Scotland votes No … Blair McDougall, director of the Better Together campaign, predicted that a high turnout ..

Big Bliar says it was him what won it but its JK Rowling that lead the victory cry. Fair enough, a million quid payoff to close down Scottish democracy is pretty big deal for red and blue tories.

Yes Britnat WoS readers, we know, JK Rowling paid the dosh because Scotland is only an annoying region of UK, too small, poor, stupid to run our own country.

In the first Scottish Independence Referendum of 18th September 2014, 1,617,989 people voted YES, but 2,001,926 voted no. If the exact same number of people were to vote in indyref2, then 191,969 of those NO voters would need to be persuaded to change their minds.

“You two can both fuck off. You don’t think we’re a nation at all.”

Telling 2,001,926 people who voted NO that “You don’t think we’re a nation at all” seems to me to be a pretty fucking stupid way of going about trying to win their hearts and minds – and their YES vote in indyref2.

Gentlemen, Ladies – remember:

Noli illegittemi carborundum.

Anent Ms Rowling; it is often said of a somewhat eccentric Scot, who heads down Dr Johnson’s “high road to England”: his/her departure doubled the average IQ of the place in Scotland she left, and the one in England to which he/she went.

Might it therefore be true – Rowling’s move from England to Scotland doubled the average IQ of where she came from, as surely as it halved the average IQ in Edinburgh.

I don’t use foul language myself and I refuse to get down the sewer level of the unionists.

As for the double standards of the media commentators, the only way to be them is not buy their newspapers or visit
their twitter or blogs if they have no one to respond too the they are talking to thin air.

I also noted that in today’s courier Nicola Sturgeon has warned independence supporters against online abuse.

Can we then expect the same directives to issued by Dugdale, Davidson and Rennie over the abuse dished out by their internet trolls.

A lot of ‘oooooh no, you’ve set us back with this’ type nonsense being spouted. Drivel. The people looking to moan about this sort of thing would be voting No now and forever.

But a bit of concern trolling about how it could ‘tip the balance next time’ never goes amiss. Nonsense. If anyone really goes through a thought process whereby they go ‘well, life will be bad if I vote No but a Yes supporter said a sweary so I better just vote No’ then they’re soft in the head. We’re a country (well, not quite, but you know what I mean) of cheeky barstewards, for God’s sake.

And the others who keep saying that we have to be better than the other side are in fact accepting the idea that we must because the media demands it, thus letting them set the rules. Every Yes supporter could give up swearing forever and donate £100 to charity every day and it still wouldn’t be enough. They are picking on it because it’s that or something else.

So, if you’re a swearer, be true to yourself and blimming well swear if you want to. You do not have to pretend to be an English ‘gentleman’. As it happens, I’m not much of a swearer myself and can probably be over diplomatic. I’m sure as hell not going to castigate anyone who does swear a bit, though.

And I wish people would stop acting as if it’s shameful and must be eradicated because certain sections of the media, who most would otherwise agree deserve to be paid no heed or respect, whine on about it. Far as I’m concerned, let people express themselves how they will. The end.

I notice the Rev is on the radar big time these days. Gets a mention in BBC article on this online abuse outrage, and also in Herald if I recall correctly. I think the Rev is using Charles Manson mind control techniques on nationalists/separatists/online abusers.

Andrew McLean said “Swearing is a sign of a poor education”

What does that say about the evident sweariness of Cambridge graduate Hugo Rifkind? Anyway, swearing creatively is an artform. Just ask Malcolm Tucker.

and by the way, for those who are concerned about the best way to persuade no voters to change their minds, you might be better off spawning a few kids and indoctrinating them to be separatists. That’s what I’m doing 😛 If we can’t get them out we’ll breed them out.

Stu,

Sorry to hear about Jura. That was a f***ing bummer. (The adjective is just to keep it on topic!)

So Rowling was in tears after the Wuggah was she? Was it crocodile tears?
—-

To be fair, she has a right to regard Scotland as a ‘nation’.
Just not a real nation in the common meaning of the term.

Obviously the Scots don’t have what it takes to govern themselves better than the Tories in London. We couldn’t have that.

She has an army of sycophants to quell her conscience, but I wonder if she ever feels any guilt?
Helping to subject Scotland to another heartless Tory government, when voters here overwhelmingly rejected them.

And wasn’t she urging people to vote No to get Devo-Max ?

Yet after have the broken promises of the vow, and the EVEL plans for second class Scottish MPs, not a squeak out of her..

Andrew McLean,

Do you think Cameron ejaculated?

Stephen.

@Giving Goose “the level of contempt that we are held in by the Unionist Establishment and their pet poodles of the MSM.”

Yes, I agree, but most by far of those 2,001,926 NO voters aren’t part of the Unionist Establishment, or the MSM.

@Robert Louis “With the greatest respect, that is NOT what happened, as I guess you already know.”

Indeed, but the MSM as mentioned by Giving Goose will seize on it, report it all over the place, and many of those 2,001,926 voters will take the MSM view of it.

@Johnny “If people are struggling, they are NOT going to go ‘oooooh, that Stu swore and said we didn’t think it was a nation so I’m voting No now’.

Perhaps not, but they’re not going to be encouraged to visit WOS to find the alternative view to the MSM. And that’s bad news. It’s not the swearing I care so much about, for me it’s a word in the dictionary, probably ranks with “the” and “and” as the most commonly used. It’s the context it’s used in, and the rest of the quote.

All those Bitter th’gither keyboard warriors have still got some way to go to beat the RAF mechanic who, having slipped with a wrench and opened up his hand, slung the offending tool to the far side of the hanger with the cry…

“That f*cking f*cker’s f*cking f*cked!”

🙂

Had no idea you tweeted under so many aliases Rev. 🙂

You insulted St. Joanne of the Bottomless Purse! If she’s driven off, who’s going to fund the next Project Fear?

Tame editors, get writing! Bad Man says Bad Word to World’s Greatest Unionist Funder and Sometime Novelist! Wings BAD! And therefore, SNP BAD!

Arseholes.

As a long time independence supporter who rarely posts on forums and doesn’t use social media except to keep in touch with relatives (though I do read a lot of what’s written concerning independence) and especially as someone who hardly ever swears, I just wanted to say I’m with you Rev, and with anyone else on our side who is occasionally so pissed off they do tell the other lot to go take a flying leap.

Sometimes, after all the pelters we get from media, unionist politicians, and generally slime oozing opponents we can’t help but retaliate. Rowling is obnoxious and Muriel, whom I used to admire, now turns my stomach at times. Cheering on Scotland, indeed.

And while I’m here I’d also say that though I greatly admire and respect Nicola Sturgeon and do feel her way of holding herself to a higher standard is the right one to take, and it’s right for her to show leadership in reminding all the rest of us to keep to those standards, however she has shown that she has gone too far in failing to call out the abuse on the other side in detail. Apart from the one time in FMQ where she named the labour blogger, I’ve only ever heard her at the end of an interview spent condemning one of us then very briefly mention that abuse is on all sides. We need more than that from her.

As everyone here knows, in chastising any of us she creates headlines which cement and perpetuate the ‘nasty cybernat’ image. She is right in saying bad behaviour won’t win over any NO’s to our side, but with her creating headlines of ‘Sturgeon slaps down abusive supporters’ for chastising us publicly we won’t win over many NO’s either. She has to also bring up the abuse from the unionists, and detail what the abuse is, and do that each time it happens. Since she is known to try to behave to a higher standard in politics then she alone should do it, and it might carry some weight with opponents as well (doubt that actually) but at very least it would give the abuse we suffer more coverage in papers so my old granny, or the busy mum next door reads something from her more than ‘supporters of my party are vile’. Unless she is shown to lead the charge in loudly condemning their behaviour as well as ours then she is helping create those headlines which say we are the only nasty ones. And those headlines do the cause of independence no favours either.

O/T if you don’t want to explode with anger,don’t watch non -reporting Scotland.

Despite the smokescreen that this is something to do with language, the truly worrying thing is the infantile logic that asserts that how you vote determines where your allegiances should be for a rugby international!

Next we’ll have No voters with yellow armbands.

@sensibledave
Yes, I think it is a bit of a place to vent. Some post in other media, against the odds, places like the DT and DM and, these days, the Grun, which are full of “bile”, not just against Independence, or those of us supporting it, but “subsidy junkie Jocks”.

I’m lucky I gave up the Guardian while it was still reasonably OK, and posted in the Herald which, until fairly recently, you could have a good discussion in, though sadly it’s largely gone the way of the Scotsman forum.

But I can sypathise with those who have to put with a lot of bile in other forums.

Why give them the opportunity to sound off by swearing? Be it in writing or verbally.

Personally I think any point individuals try to make by using the f c or any other recognisable swear word automatically makes me ignore the text.

Let’s not be diverted. That what they want. Now I am not a Rowling fan but maybe some of her most recent writings involve some swearing, fornication?

I will never know as I have no intention of purchasing crap. Shit! Have I just broke my own rule?

@Andrew McLean

Recently I find that I’m fucking angry most of the time.

I suppose the point is that Rowling comes across as bit of a hypocrite. Cheering Scotland on, after funding the campaign for London rule.
Of course she is perfectly entitled to support Scotland, and see Scotland as a nation in cultural or sporting terms only.
It just seems a little ’empty’ to many.

Personally, I would be totally embarrassed to give it the 80 minute patriot act, after campaigning against Scotland’s ability to govern itself better than the current lot.

Such faith in her fellow countrymen and women..
Such aspiration..

Oh, and regarding “yellow armbands”: anyone who compares, in jest or in seriousness, the Scottish government to the atrocities of the Nazi regime may as well go up to the survivors of that regime and spit right in their eye. Because you’re not just disrespecting the SNP, their members, or their voters: you’re belittling and trivialising those survivors’ experiences and their trauma, all for the sake of disparaging a peaceful democratic movement you disagree with.

In seeking to compare the SNP to some of the great crimes against humanity, you are treating those crimes as little more than a slur against your opponents. I find it completely and utterly sickening.

@ Muscleguy,

Hiya mate. Not yet but it’s imminent. I can’t bloody wait to get out of this cesspit. Take care.

I am weell used to industrial language and it doesn’t bother me over much.

Loosing the rag however usually looses the argument.

Moral: Don’t get mad – get even! Every NO vote converted is a YES they have to convert back just to stand still and it ain’t going to happen. This may be slow but it’s irreversible one way traffic. Remember also, we have a majority of the 16+s on our side. Just how long can the Unionists hold back the groundswell?

Tick tock!

@Iain Hamilton
Considering we lost all 5 games in the 6 Nations, I doubt before this World Cup if Scotland would have supplied more than a couple of players, with all due respect to them.

Now, especially after their performance on Sunday, I’d think 5, 7, 8 or even more would be well possible. From 2013:

“The 37-strong party was unveiled live on Sky Sports News by Tour Manager Andy Irvine and Head Coach Warren Gatland.

The squad for the 10-match, three-Test series is made up of 15 Welshmen, 10 Englishmen, nine Irishmen and three Scotsmen and will be captained by Wales’ Sam Warburton”

So yes, you’re being oversensitive 🙂 It shows how much Scottish Rugby has come on.

Yeah…I’m a swearer, mostly to convey my utter contempt for the pish we are assaulted with daily.

I think whether you swear or not depends a lot on yer upbringing…although it was definitely ‘not on’, both my parents were sweary gits when angry. Not in everyday use obvs.

Personally there is something deliciously satisfying about a ranting swearfest…I’d rather vent vocally than vent violently.

I don’t know who said what,nor why.Could someone please tell me what the Brits are girning about this time?

As dazzling intellectual discourse these exchanges have all the heft of Hume and Voltaire, all the wit of Boswell and Johnson, all the gravitas of Chomsky and Zizek.

I didn’t think I could be more proud of the scribes of our fourth estate, but once more they confounded my expectations.

Wow, guys. Just… wow.

Dear supporter,

Last week at the SNP conference we launched Holyrood Exposed, a new guide to lobbying in Scotland. We’ve teamed up with Spinwatch and ERS Scotland to put lobbyists and their tactics under the spotlight.

Inside Holyrood Exposed:

Take a walking tour of Edinburgh’s lobbying industry

Find out which lobbyists have been hiring top SNP staff

Revealed: lobbyists’ wining and dining of special advisers

Discover the big guns lined up for policy battles on alcohol pricing, plain packaging for cigarettes and fracking in Scotland

It looks like Holyrood Exposed has struck a nerve with the lobbying industry – we’ve already been labelled “London-centric conspiracy theorists” in the Scottish press. As lobbyists brace themselves for the publication of the Scottish government’s proposals for a lobbying register, we will keep making the case for lobbying transparency in Scotland. The public have a right to know who is lobbying whom, about what, and how.

Help us show that real transparency needs a robust lobbying register by sharing Holyrood Exposed on Facebook or Twitter. Scotland has the chance to create a level playing field where there is no access to politicians behind closed doors. Let’s make sure the SNP take it!

Best wishes,

Alexandra Runswick

These hallowed so called journalists farts smell just as sweet as ours. They love sitting on an imaginary pedestal from where they believe that they lord it over all they survey.

Truth is, their loftiness is all in their imagination. they ARE yesterdays news and hate Wings all the more as it shows their inadequacies for what they are.

Their egos are bigger than their talent warrants, their value to society is nil, their value to government is waning.

No wonder they are pissed off. Thankfully they are also dying off and it’s just a matter of time. One thing we have is plenty of time, Yes we do.

Independence is for life, governments are fleeting.

Final word, a wee sweary is no big deal, I could imagine doing a lot worse. With a pigs head for example, even I wouldn’t stoop that low. That’s the type that govern us though.

Ah.. The ‘everyone is as patriotic as everyone else’ argument. No one wants to think of themselves as being less Scottish, even those who would abolish the Scottish Parliament would be incensed if you alluded to them being less Scottish. And of course it is not very nice or constructive to tell someone they are less patriotic and indeed to tell them where to go.

Yesindyref2 is right, I am sure.

We’ve have many occasions to get right behind Scotland over the years and there is nothing quite like getting behind Scotland. Thing is – fitba, and rugby, and the commonwealth games are pretty meaningless when compared with that one day when we were all asked to either get behind Scotland or back Scotland being controlled by England (or at best a minor region of the UK)

We didnae have to have worn a badge or contributed money or time canvassing or leafletting if we didnae want to.

We didnae have to storm a barricade, or face down a tank, or take a bullet.

All we had to do was pit a wee cross on a bit of paper.

Is JK as Scottish as the Weirs after she paid £1 million quid to prevent independence whilst the Weirs pumped in millions for a Yes vote? It’s a queer kind of thought. If your answer to that question is ‘yes’ then nationality and patriotism are meaningless words.

JK did not vote against Scotland being a country – she voted, campaigned and contributed money beyond the means of almost any of us against Scotland being a nation state. Because she thought it would be shit I suppose?

Now if that makes her a patriotic Scotswoman then I am a Trident enthusiast who supports the conservative party who supports the clayhalers and believe myself to be Hungarian.

Strange times indeed. Can we reset language please – it doesn’t seem to be working?

Peace and goodwill to all especially those who pay taxes and contribute to charity. And if anyone reading this is offended please accept my apologies as my understanding of events is simply different to your own.

What’s interesting about hammer of the Scots Rowling, is why she didn’t get made a Lady or Baroness like Lady Mone of Mayfair. lol

But seriously, Lady Mone of Mayfair is now able to vote for toryboy world misery aimed right at the worst off for all teamGBists, for the rest of her life too, although SNP Scots.gov has staved off UKOK toryboy horrors like the bed room tax, much to the usual ugly chagrin of the BBC Scotland creep show.

So if you’re out the britnat WoS SLab readers, why is it NOT Baroness JK Rowling, Hammer of the Scots?

yesindyref2

Indeed- at the only time of asking 25.4% voted against devolution, against the existance of a Scottish Parliament.

I thought it was a ridiculous idea- a halfway house between the 2 possible states for Scotland. I thought we should be independent or part of the UK- and labour were behind it so I voted against. How fucked up is that?

So Ms Rowling- if you are reading, from one sinner who made a bad call many years ago and repented, it is possible to change your mind. Next time get into the scrum with the rest of us… crouch, pause, touch (quiet at the back Paula) and engage.

Maybe that could be the next Yes slogan to get the rugby crowd on board?

If you think JK Rowling’s ghastly and wish she would stop giving campaigns like BetterTogether millions of pounds

“It is a rancid worldview determining the acceptability of your Scottish credentials by the political views you hold. It is a kind of corruption, a putrefaction of the soul deeming one group of Scots more authentic and deserving than another. As expressions of joyous, civic, nationalism go it is pretty ethnic.”

Says one more toryboy hack, Spectator? Its not Horatio Nelson of the Spectator this time but another UKOK tory wet fart we’re all supposed to obey.

My soul is well putrefied then. How to clean it though? Vote Toryboy, buy every Harry Potter book no doubt, stop wondering how on earth unionist zealots can actually sing out loud “we stood against them” without feeling ridiculous?
