RE: The Official Nonsense Thread
Interesting times up here. The Yes campaign is now in a very narrow lead & Rangers look set to collapse again as part of their assets have been frozen for unpaid back wages to a former employee - as their whole operation is run to the last penny spent, it's now countdown time to going into admin again.
The big surprise is Tommy Sheridan getting a rousing reception in Dundee last night at some public meeting. Most reckoned he was finished after the News Of The World business but I think the whole business with George Galloway of late has rehabilitated him to a certain extent with the public - after all, Sheridan foolishly destroyed his own political career over pursuing a point of principle instead of being smart enough to let it drop; while Galloway's a vicious toerag appealing to people's worst instincts. A lot of people call him a firebrand, but I was always impressed by the way he went to places like Fettes and Conservative Clubs on invitation to argue his case, & was able to appeal to that old style paternalist type Tory that's never been comfortable with the social price paid for economic growth. If he could stop calling people "Brother" & "Sister" like a 60s hippy, he might get back into Holyrood again where he could do some good. |
