+HolyroodDaily Seems like a negative heading but without a Supreme Court ruling nobody can have confidence in what they will decide. That's the whole point of what is happening. The headline suggests The Lord Advocate doesn't think the ruling will be favourable.

*********** Today Anas Sarwar will be making a speech in which he will say that the way forward is a legally binding duty of cooperation between the Scottish and British governments. Odd, I thought. SIR Keir, his boss, has said that he will not talk to the SNP. In fairness, I’m not sure that the … Continue reading "RANDOM THOUGHTS"

In the immortal words of Dad’s Army’s Corporal Jones, “They don’t like it up ’em.” It is safe to say that British nationalists are not reacting at all well to the realisation that they do not after all get to dictate the terms, timing, and conditions of the Scottish independence process. The term ‘game-changer’ is […]

Thanks to Alex Taylor for his translation subtitles.

@Bribo66 Yep, sounds like it! Are they hoping the same scare stories work from 2014?

+HolyroodDaily Here we go again. They'll move their REGISTERED headquarters. Isn't this the same 'plaque on a wall' rubbish from 2014?

For anyone who thinks it’s safe to wait until after 2021 for another indyref. Not that it’s a new idea for the Lib Dems, of course. It really does feel like Retro Week at the moment. Catalonia is in fact Spain’s wealthiest region. Claiming it couldn’t be independent is a bit like saying London couldn’t […]

'filled with social housing which would nevertheless be for sale under Right To Buy.'

+Indyref2 I read that one last night. Apart from the issues you've identified, what's the point of identifying 'problems' if you don't at least offer a solution? 

+WingsScotland I notice that the Tory conference next Tuesday has a 'Celebrating The Union' half hour with speakers from Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. Nobody representing England. How strange.
