It's for this reason that Scotland would likely be welcomed into the EU and NATO with open arms (regardless of the pish spouted by the unionists) . The water north of Scotland is too strategically important.

Not only are universal handouts a waste of public funds, but by creating dependency/expectancy on government at an early age, these ephemeral politicians are setting up young people for an enormous shock when they enter the real world. In fact, it's little wonder fewer and fewer people see working hard as something to be valued (at both ends of the financial spectrum, it should be added).

I read the article. I also had a look into the authors. 

The premise? Meh. 

Putin would eye up Scotland in a world war? I'd imagine Putin eyeing up everywhere in a world war. 

 

It was all a bit 'if my auntie had baws'. 

If you were being cynical you'd say it was another in a recent line of spurious 'better together' articles, this time using the Ukraine situation as the foundation of just how lucky us sweaty socks are to be part of the British empire.

I'm sure the Royal Services Institute have a not particularly impartial view on keeping submarines in Faslane.

 

I believe the first bombs dropped in WW2 were at the ships moored under the Forth Bridge at Rosyth on 16th October 1939 and on the same day they machine gunned the lighthouse at Barns Ness near Dunbar just for good measure!

I don't value working hard, it's shite, that's why they don't call it playing happily. But I'm always up with the hardest workers in any job, because it's the smoothest ride, it gets you through your day quicker, and you get rewarded if you have a good employer.

 

But valuing hard work is the kind of talk the likes of Rees-Mogg want us drones to think, I can just see it in big letters on the wall of the beehive!

Thanks for clarifying. Think there’s a difference between “seeing the value in hard work” and being out to “get everything you can.” I work damn hard in my job and I get a lot of job satisfaction from making a difference. At same time I get a good salary for doing it and I’ll maximise my money by claiming anything I’m entitled to (working from home tax credit etc) and taking advantage of discounts (blue light discount etc). It means I have more money to spend on my family.

Alba get my list vote. I have the cretinous Cole-Hamilton as my MSP and that wee nyaff, good for nothing Jardine as my MP. They get the disaffected Tory and Labour voters. Their only policy is the usual "SNP bad". Loathe them both but there are a lot of unthinking numbskulls in our constituency.

As far as politicians go, the Lib Dems in Edinburgh west are very hands on and helpful.

The LibDems are a nothing party and most Scots know it and vote  SNP more than any other party. Edinburgh West is full of Tories who hold their noses and vote for that useless lot and Labour voters too. How many MSPs do they have?

Yet they do more for the locals than the useless SNP candidates who, despite their muck flinging and bitterness, can't get elected in that constituency.

Perhaps if they hadn't ****ed up running Edinburgh as a city, they might be more popular, but no, they are running it into ground with no ideas of what to do to turn it around.

If the LibDems are any good, why do they only have 4 MSPs? They're hopeless and useless. Based on the wonderful job they're doing for the locals, of which I've felt no benefit, why do Edinburgh folk not vote for them in general?

Because that MP does a good job and locals vote for him. It's how voting works.

Dry your eyes, your beloved party simply can't convince the electorate to oust the Lib Dems. Maybe more should vote on local issues.
