Can’t we just fix up Hadrian’s wall? Bit of razor wire and some claymores should do it.
Failing that just dump a huge pile of deep fried mars bars by the side of the M74 near the border, they’ll slam on the brakes, jump out and gorge themselves to death…
Fly tipping you say, give it a few years under Salmon and we’ll have refugee camps stationed all the way along the border and UN planes dropping grain onto the streets of Edinburgh whilst the Supreme Leader of Scotland gorges himself on the souls of his subjects (deep fried of course).
Be a massive toys out of pram moment, on the 19/9/2014, when they realise only the ones with SCO on the back of their cars and stupid little tartan teddies and the rest of the inhabitants didnt bother or voted againtst something called devolution, when evolution hasnt reached some parts of scotlandshire.
Footflaps is planning to fry a hell of a lot of mars bars project we will syphon the oil out of your pipeline and replace it with the used cooking oil 🙂
I think Salmon has all the makings of a Mugabe – start of vaguely sane, prosperous country etc. Then go barking mad, round up all the land owners and turf them out – plant mars bars in all the fields and watch the country deteriorate whilst blaming the English for everything…
Mr Salmond is very unlike Mr Mugabe. For one thing he was democratically elected, and unlike Messrs Cameron Clegg etc his party managed to win an overall majority
Definitely not a skin colour issue footflaps. While Mr Salmond, with a d has many flaws he won a free election fair and square, His party do not intimidate voters nor do they discriminate on ethnic, or religious basis. As for turfing out( some at least) landowners…. I would vote for that 🙂
Well this got mature quickly…
(awaits flaming mars bar barrage- but its ok, being Scottish I’ll just gorge myself to death on them, anyone actually tried a deep fried mars bar btw??)
Obviously I am being facetious, but FYI Mugabe was democratically elected to power in 1980 – for the first few years things were pretty normal (for Africa).
At the end of the war in 1979, Mugabe emerged as a hero in the minds of many Africans.[3][4] He won the general elections of 1980, the second in which the majority of black Africans participated in large numbers (though the electoral system in Rhodesia had allowed black participation based on qualified franchise). Mugabe then became the first Prime Minister after calling for reconciliation between formerly warring parties, including white Rhodesians and rival political groups.
Pretty sure if big Eck scrapped the elections and went down that route the rUK would be in with the army asap to steal back the oil give us back democracy 😉
I enjoyed sampling one the night before 10utb last year in Aviemore.. the seven or eight pints that preceded it probably helped. Not my race though obviously, managed approx 1.20 laps..
Thought about this the other day – I reckon it’s going to be very close. And that worries me as I’ve always considered myself British. Born in Scotland but with some English blood, married in Scotland and my mother lives there but spent the majority of my life in Wales and England where I live now. I also sound totally English. If we go our separate ways I think I’ll loose my sense of identity.
Interesting link rockplough, I will also be voting yes don’t think that will come as a surprise to anyone.
Footflaps I accept your point about Mr Mugabe in his early years as leader of Zimbabwe.
everyone get out and vote no matter what you vote for. Don’t just sit on yer arse this is not an election, as far as I know this is a unique occasion in Scottish history . …. breathes deeply… Ok am off the soap box now 🙂
