SMEDDUM. A fine old Scots word but, sadly, not much evidence of it being a fine contemporary virtue in Scotland right now.
The indy army wish fervently for a bit more of it being visible in the electorate. The Unionist army wish fervently that they’d shut up and address folks’ real concerns.
And, already, many months before the ballot boxes are summonsed, it’s been made clear that Mr Brown’s vision has slipped off Sir Keir’s priority to do list. This is not much of a shock to the Scots body politic. Fool me once, and all that. Meanwhile, those bean counters at the Treasury in London have run up £2.5 trillion of national debt – more than 100% of the UK’s GDP. Yet we are constantly labelled whingeing Jocks; ingrates who don’t thank the Chancellor for his largesse.
A five-part series on the “Troubles”, Once Upon A Time In Northern Ireland, is an utterly fascinating take on Northern Ireland’s seemingly entrenched divisions. And there is no way any sensible Scot would advocate a constitutional course involving violence and innocent deaths. Nor would they want to replicate the civil war.
And then we have the thoughts of Professor Robert McCorquodale, who has concluded that the Supreme Court got it wrong in their judgment over Scottish self-determination. Now given that he was commissioned by Neale Hanvey of Alba you might suppose that his conclusions were unlikely to be unfavourable to that party.
