Yes, but then they'd have to go into the next room and look under the keyboard for the password.

I'm speechless, but not surprised.

It's already happening; if not the sterilisation, but certainly the job losses and citizen checks.

These can both be true.

And yet poor wee England doesn't try to cast off us oppressors.
When will England finally have it's chance?

I wonder is that will also apply to Scotland?

But it's OK because most of those employees it doesn't have are in Scotland...right?

The single time Nato's Article 5 has been invoked, ever, saw the whole of NATO mobilising to support the US, with significant loss of life.
No one has asked for payment.
At no time, however viscious that attack was, was US territory threatened with occupation.

Of course, Canada and Mexico are under no obligation to pause any tariffs they have planned.

Ah, I was talking about our optimism in our political masters. I don't have confidence that they will necessarily reconsider.
2 years Navy, 18 years Army.

20 years. This is why I doubt they'll reconsider, even if failure stares them in the eye.

You are quite the optimist!

And not forgetting when David Cameron invited Putin to get involved in the Scottish Independence Referendum.

The difference is, it would be true and not made up.

The US is in a hurry to become the Gillead.

This from a government that has censored journalists, removed the need for balanced news coverage, and has put people into concentration camps and is now getting ready to deport them.
Also, Trump and his "Fake News".

If this isn't an oxymoron, I think he's the brains of the operation.

So, when will the US put spending up to 5%?

That, and much, much more.

I think you're conferring far too much cultural awareness on the chap.

What about all the other drugs and guns moving north across the same border?

Nothing to see here. 4 years to investigate an account of a few £million, and a suggested further year or so for the Crown Office to do their bit.
That this takes us right up to the 26 Scottish elections is neither here nor there, dear chap. These things just happen, dontchaknow?

Obviously, that should be Nov 24.

The UK government (Tory) was found to have acted unlawfully in an action brought by Uplift/Greenpeace.
Douglas Ross (A Conservative in Scotland) somehow tried to blame the SNP for this.

That's tragic, but I hope he has success, wherever he goes.

Likewise, "GB" Energy could have put a few jobs in Scotland and pretended that it was more than a brass plate.
Reporting suggests that the number of jobs has gone from a promised 1000 to 200-300 (as at Nov 42).
There are an estimated energy 60,000 jobs in Scotland. That's 0.005%, at best.

Of course, if Scotland hadn't been dragged out of the EU by its large neighbour, things would be different.

"Every single time, there's often a pushback"
Which is it? Every time, or often?

Never mind the rUK. They have made their choice.
Scotland needs to rejoin...alone.

Here's what I can't understand. They could put jobs up here. Sure, low-register jobs, but put 10% of the workforce in Scotland and keep the Jocks in their place. But no, they have to go all supervillain and have EVERYTHING in LAHNDAHN TAHN.
They Can't even be even bad, effectively.

There is also a difference between a minority operating in an environment that devalues them, simply because it is the prevailing system and cheer-leading for the implementation of a system that will devalue them.
If we are to respect their agency, we have to acknowledge their mistakes.

If I remember correctly, is was used twice, maybe three times and never in the main text. It was just in the preambles.

Since when did previous governments start binding the hands of future governments?
