The independent deterrent

Scotland doesn’t need a nuclear missile system. All we need to do is stick a few of these at strategic points around the coastline and see who wants to mess with us.
I think we all know the answer to that question.
Let’s just stick some Labour MPs on the coastline – their horrible ‘policies’ will scare any potential enemies away in no time!
Seen this before. Quality.
Should get him to front the rugby team and play post haka when we’re facing New Zealand. Combined with the about turn and lift kilt when finished of course.
😉
Well guys this is off topic but I’m sending out a massive respect to the SSP yes Scotland guys who set their stalls up in Ayr . Ian brotherhood And Doon footer you guys know who you are. You guys are the reason that yes will win this referendum for us. So nice to meet you and I wish I had the patience to put up with the public . big kudos to you guys that stood in eighty degree heat engaging with anyone who would talk too you. I’m proud to be part of this guys . Goan yerself.
That guy’s brilliant!So, like you say, get a whole army of guys (and lassies)like that in pairs sited at strategic points along the border and the coastline.At any sign of trouble or intrusion, out of cover or from the darkness steps the two watchpeople. Background music starts up. Then the first words:The intro guy/lassie: “William Wallace is seven feet tall!”The piper guy/lassie: “Yes, I’ve heard. Kills men by the hundreds. And if he were here, he’d consume the English with fireballs from his eyes, and bolts of lightning from his arse! … I am William Wallace! “Music gets louder and piper proceeds to shoot firebolts from his pipe’s drones (If he could be even more authentic and shoot fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightening from his arse that would be tremendous. The chances of that happening though, are decidedly slim) while jumping about like a mad thing and playing along.Now that would just make you shit yourself and say, ‘Fuck this for a caper! Let’s get to hell out of here!’ would it not?!Who would need nuclear weapons if we had that lot?!
Don’t know what happened there with my last post. The formatting was all correct before posting.
Stu, you couldn’t do me a favour and do some kind of reformat of that post for me, could you? Then delete this one? If you can be bothered, then that would be great! Thanks in hope!
That’s effing brilliant.
Love the new uniform for the SDF.
Well hard. 🙂
The video is really funny. And what is funnier is, speaking of nuclear deterrents etc, there was a cyber-attack on Iranian nuclear facilities that caused their computers to play AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck”! I dont think it was the version that the “badpiper” in the video plays though!

Even funnier is the fact that Uranium is a “heavy metal”!
\m/ 🙂 \m/
Wouldn’t need any drones either 🙂
I’ll get my plaidie and tammy.
Thought that I`d seen it all. “The Bagpiper” This guy is seriously nuts, love the pyrotechnics. An Australian I assume no sign of a Scottish cringe whatsoever. Can’t wait for “The Morris Dancer” version with exploding balloons, flaming handkerchiefs etc.
Seriously OT, but his is the kind of Uranium rock that I like.

Gaun yersel’ David!
That is brilliant. I hope he waits till after his performance before he has a few drams though.
I like these guys – Clanadonia.
Particularly the audience participation.
@MajorBloodnok;
Brilliant. Was that you dancing? Where’s the suit?
COOL VERY COOL.
If that has put you in the mood try this bunch of “foreigners”
@AlexMcl-
Cheers mister. Big pleasure to meet you, and hopefully won’t be the last time.
You saw how busy it was yesterday – imagine what it’s going to be like this time next year, when we’re on the home-run and the BT brigade still haven’t dared show their face anywhere that real people can ask them what they’re all about?
Slainte!
Atypical_Scot says: Was that you dancing? Where’s the suit?
Busted!
The Badpiper is an Australian resident! You can’t have him, he’s ours now 🙂
Well, well, well – McCrone is seldom mentioned in the MSM, but he crops up today in a Jason Allardyce piece in The Sunday Times (p4):
‘…Gavin McCrone, former chief economic adviser to the Scottish Office, writes in a new book that 2014 is not the best time for independence in the wake of a recession, high public debt and an unsustainable budget deficit.
“Scotland is a relatively well-off country and could perfectly well be independent. But that does not mean that the process of separation would be easy or painless. It would be a major upheaval with uncertain consequences,” he said.
However, McCrone – whose advice that North Sea oil could transform an independent Scotland’s fortunes was suppressed by the UK government in the mid-1970s – warned that promises of further devolution are likely to be shelved by the UK government if Scotland votes No in next year’s referendum.
A No vote also risks severing Scotland’s vital ties with Europe and a flight of foreign investors if the UK then votes to leave the EU in the Conservative’s in/out referendum, McCrone suggested.’
Well according to, Westminster guru Danny Alexander, today, Scotland will be wide open to nuclear attack if the Faslane is forced to close as a nuclear deterrent base.
Funny how its just Scotland thats open to nuclear attack, and not any other EU country.
@ianbrotherhood. re. McCrone:
Indeed, and I was very surprised to see not one but two mentions of the original report in successive letters in the Herald on Friday, it seems it’s not only the Sunday edition that is softening their stance.

Nae bad but I bet there’s quite a few Scots (me included) that can do that out of their arses on a sunday afternoon.
I think the boy could do with a bit more training…..before he burns the rest of his hair off.
