Doubtful about the anti-English bit but he’s definitely a wee (and jumped up) no mark. Our Holyrood voting system is good at throwing up self-important nonentities like this Oompa Loompa. He makes Tommy Sheridan look like a statesman.

You mean the voting system foisted on HR by the unionist parties in an attempt to prevent an SNP majority?

I'm maybe doing the old boy a disservice with the anti-English claim KvC. I'm happy for you to instruct the jury to ignore that part of my statement 👍.

He is certainly anti-WM and I get the impression he doesn't like Boris Johnson😂

Too easy Doug,  I throw it around like confetti, if the truth be told. To be fair, so is the Eton, toff, out of touch jibes fired at Boris Johnson. In truth, as we see from the polls, large swathes of the country can relate to his chaotic lifestyle, the dishevelled look, the demanding fiancee wanting an expensive kitchen, the 6 wives and numerous kids etc etc. Compared to the condescending,  faux working class hectoring of a Sturgeon or a Starmer and you can see why the sleaze allegations don't really cut through to the public.

This is nothing to do with the anti - English xenophopic trope you readily admit to using. As you so easily pointed out criticism of Johnson is possible for any number of reasons why would anybody do so when being English is possibly his best characteristic.

I gave up trying to work out the Scottish electorate years ago. They are a lost cause. They voted Labour for decades regardless; their grandfathers wouldn't have forgiven them if they hadn't.  Now, with freebies, thanks to the fiscal transfers mind you, and a bit of old fashioned "chip on the shoulder " hypnotism,  the baton has been passed on to the SNP. Doesn’t matter how much they run the country into the ground, it's got to be "wir Nicola". It's a pathetic indictment of the electorate and certainly shouldn't be taken as a badge of honour.

There is very little difference in approach nor outcomes in relation to Scot/rUK Covid handling. Out of date PPE, emptying of positive patients into care homes, cover ups, **** ups, it's all been the same. The vaccine procurement was a triumph and that's what matters to most. Not that it's much consolation nor should it be competitive but the UK, from having one of the highest death rates in the world are much lower now.

Eat Out to Help Out was a fantastic success too and enjoyed by millions.  Hopefully we see another one this year.

Cutting aside all the other stuff in your post...yes, Scotland and England have broadly followed the same approach to 'handling' Covid.

 

A lot is made about the relaxation of lockdown in autumn last year in England...yet it was in Scotland that I was in an outdoor beer garden shoulder to shoulder with loads of other folk in August. Could I have done the same in England? Yes. Both have handled it poorly, Scotland has been more draconian around the fringes but lo and behold it looks as though they'll both be coming out of it around the same time.

 

Would Scotland's approach be looking as bright right now though under the European sourcing of vaccines? I'd argue, probably not.

Johnson is a buffoon at times, we all know that, but actions speak louder than words. He got Brexit done, despite the hysterical outrage of the anti-democratic left-wing hate mob who ignored the democratic process, Trump-style, for a year. Eat out to Help Out was another great initiative although Sunak gets the credit for that and the world leading vaccine procurement put many nations and an entire continent to shame. 

The usual classist hate mob are always out with their pitchforks though. At the start of the week, we heard criticism that a priviliged few had access to the PMs mobile. By the end of the week we find out anyone with an Internet connection could have got his mobile number for the last 15 years😂

He got Brexit done with a lot of lies and broken promises. He got the worst possible deal, tried to wriggle out of it by threatening to break international agreements and risks a return of terrorism in Northern Ireland. He gave the Northern Irish special conditions but wouldn't consider any concession to Scotland suggesting that the best way to influence policy and government actions in the UK is with the threat of violence. Our economy has been damaged more severely than the rest of the UK as our exporters of perishable goods are not able to export anything like we did before  because of delay and extra cost. He managed to do this by expelling members of his own party and threatening others. He had no mandate in the HOC or the country, people could see he was going to leave the EU at any cost and they surrendered on the basis that the appalling deal he got was better than no deal. 

 

   Who is this anti- democratic hate mob? Opinion polls showed that people did not want to leave the EU once they fully realised the implications of so doing but were denied the chance to vote on it. It's not anti- democratic to oppose and argue against decisions you don't like, quite the contrary. It's anti - democratic to close discusion down and make a decision of this monumental importance in the way it was done.

 

I do accept that he won the election and that he remains popular. I have no idea why though as he is a complete and utter embarrassment and at every level casts a very dim light on the reputation of this country. Trump style for a year! He is nowhere near Trump. He is as he is often describe a bumbling buffoon. The worst PM we have ever had and far worse than any rational person could have imagined 10 years ago.

 

        Eat out to help out was a ridiculous gimmick in a country up to its neck in debt. Nothing but a sop to the hospitality industry many of whom are Tory donors and missed out on the chance to turn tablecoths into PPE at 100 times the cost. They have blatantly stolen billions of pounds from the taxpayer for no discernable gain. At the same time they were giving huge sums to their corporate donors they were denying "freebies" to the poor in the form of free school meals. How can you came on here and criticise free eye tests and free personal care and support subsidised hospitality that resulted in an increased number of deaths and illnesses in a country reeling from the after effects of a pandemic with a widely predicted second wave in the offing?

   It takes a special kind of stupidity to run a country like that but we all know what's in it for them. What makes the masses vote for them? Bigotry and sefishness i would say but above all rank stupidity.

If Carlsberg did factually incorrect posts, dripping with seethe and bitterness...

 

The EU deal that you slate is the same deal that a separate would be trading on with rUK. That represents 65% of our trade. Still support separation?

 

Your blatant disregard and lack of empathy towards the hospitality industry, beggars belief. You obviously know nothing about business which probably explains your liking of totalitarian states like the old Soviet Union. Oppress and control the people with centralised control and crumbs for the masses.

Business owners risk their own money, employ people, invest, expand , turn a profit and pay taxes. Without them, there would be NO freebies.

Furlough was a temporary sop to save jobs, it didn’t help owners who were losing money hand over fist. There is no substitute for trading, none at all.  Eat Out to Help Out was a fantastic success and your spurious claims about costing lives bears no resemblance to reality. University students traversing the country before living cheek by jowl in super spreading halls of residences seems a more likely cause, don't you think?
