  23. As I write, shredders will be shredding, e mail accounts deleted, expenses hotel receipts and meal tickets doctored.
    There’s nothing to engender a panic attack in the Unionist camp than a ‘Watch this space; Expenses/sex/ nepotism expose’ teaser.

    Salome slicing a wee juicy scandal are you, Rev? The dance of the seven Unionist veils.

    I just popped into the Herald site. I know, the last thing you should do is pick at a scab; it will never heal.
    It has been taken over by the usual Unionist Suspects, trotting out the fatuous, ‘I’m Scottish, a citizen of the UK, and British, and 2,000,000 of my fellow North Brits agreed with me. (for ever more, apparently).

    I wait with bated breath the Unionist manifestos.
    They all are in favour of Tuition Fees, aren’t they?

    £9000 a year per student will come in handy.

    Reintroduce tolls on the Kessock, Skye, Tay, Forth, Erskine Bridges, and the Kingston bridge, and the Clyde Tunnel, while we’re at it.

    Prescription charges anyone? After all that is ‘proud to be a citizen of the UK’ policy Down There in the Westminster HO of Ruth’s, Kezia’s and Wullie’s British Parties.

    (I seem to recall that Wullie swept to power on the back of a scrap Forth Bridge Tolls Ticket. Oh, the irony.)

    Free travel for the elderly? Means test it.

    Free personal care? Not while there’s a Labour or Tory LA Administration to gum up the works.

    Bedroom Tax? Scrap this Scottish Mitigation scheme.

    NHS in Scotland? All 3 Unionist Parties would ‘introduce competition..privatise privatise, privatise.

    JoLa’s ‘something for nothing’ speech, has not gone away.
    The above are just some of the Better Together policy beezers…

    In which safe house is Wee Ruth currently sheltering?

    Can’t wait, Stu.

    Is that ‘Boo!’, as in a creepy Jim Murphy (sans halo) jumping out from behind a bush to scare the shit out of anyone in Scotland while saying, “Ha-ha! And you thought I’d gone away, did you…!?”…?

    Or, is it ‘Boo(oo)!‘, as in the reaction in Scotland to an upper-class English announcer on the BBC saying, “…And now for more of his impartial, fair and unbiased views on Scottish independence, here is Nick Robinson…”…?

    UK membership costs Scotland £13Billion +++ a year. More than EU membership costs the UK a year (reduced €15Billion – £12Billion) a year that comes back.

    UK membership costs Scotland £4Billion in loan repayments Scotland doesn’t borrow or spend, £4Billion (60% tax for five years – £20Billion) in lost Oil Revenues, lost £1Billion in a tax on ‘loss leading’ cheap alcoholic, £1Billion on Trident/illegal wars, £3Billion? In tax evasion. HMRC not fit for purpose = £13Billion. Secret, illegal governance hodden under Official Secrets Act = £300Billion Oil Fund.

    EU costs Scotland £1Billion which comes back, in CAP payments (taken by Westminster) Renewables Grants (+ CSS blocked by Westminster), shared Defence costs (lost to Westminster)

    HS2 (£70Billion – double it) Hinkley nuclear (£25Billion – double it) – a total waste of public money = £95Billion – the Defict. £170Billion Trident – a total fraudulent waste of public money – the National debt.

    Cold, hungry worried people can’t sleep and get sick. The majority of people are ashamed, sick and disgusted that vulnerable people are being sanctioned and starved to death. (by Unionist policies).

    Blair/Brown/Cameron/Osbourne should be put in jail. The Chilcot has bern illegally delayed.

    Stocks & shares ISA’s are so fraudulent they should be abolished.

  48. Perhaps it’s THE Boo Radley?
    If memory serves he left wee gifts for the Finch children in the knothole of a tree.
    Grey, balding, thin lipped with an icy stare. Is IDS really Boo Radley?
    PIP ‘better targeted to meets the needs of disabled people MOST in need.’

    A wee gift secreted in the knothole that is Scotland.

    Those disabled people who are considered ‘least’ in need, get nothing. The Tory way. Well Done, Ruth, and Professor Tomkins, the next one through the revolving Unionist leadership door.

    Can’t get this silly grin off my face..and at my age too.
