And with one bound he was free’. Ye really couldnae paint a red neck on the man. He just sits there looking like a big half asleep coo, chewing the cud and standing in a muddy puddle whilst gazing blankly through the mist.
In the midst of Tory foot soldiers defecting across the chamber to the slightly less Tory red Tories, the touchy-feely former near-the-top -of-the-piler Brexiteer back-bencher quoting phrases from the past “In the name of God, go”, the 1922 Committee’s mail box having a nervous breakdown as letters keep arriving and then leaving again, and Ian Blackford (and by extension the voters of Scotland) being completely ignored and reviled again for lambasting him with the truth, Boris Johnson remains as the Prime Minister of the UK.
Ye get the feeling that he could literally take a dump on the Downing Street carpet during a live media conference, then say somebody else did it and get away with it. The world has gone completely mad.
It really is appalling that whilst the leader of the party which represents the votes of the majority of Scotland’s voters in the General Election stands up and speaks about the deaths of over 150,000 citizens of the countries of the UK Johnson can sit and smirk, shake his head from side-to-side like a parcel shelf toy, and pretend to gaze at his watch in boredom. Way beyond crass.
C’mon First Minister, let’s get this show on the road. Get the process to return Scotland to its rightful state of independence at least started. Whilst we are shackled to the railings of this cesspit of self-obsessed greedy chancers, zealots and right-wing flag wavers we will never really flourish as a nation. We will never achieve the huge potential in improving our public services, health, education, standard of living and access to employment opportunities that our people deserve. Do it.

Elected politicians are there to SERVE the people who have voted for them… Politicians are both servants and – occasionally – respectable advisers?
Bear in mind that Scotland’s Royalty gave up its supreme power and/or authority; thereafter, the nation’s population are actually sovereign people!
By comparison, England’s parliament is recognised as being a Sovereign Parliament… The supposed UK presently has a Royal Queen (Figurehead?), and thereby lies an entirely different story, which is beyond my understanding; so I’ll simply close with a small poem…
Unrealistic 🙃
It was unrealistic to expect changes,
UK’s really that Unraveling Kingdom;
Westminster’s lunatic style deranges,
Past the time for Scotland’s freedom!
