orlandoblue Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Desperate stuff from you here. I'm more bothered about wee things like having nuclear weapons transported through Glasgow. It's not desperate stuff. Just because there are far more important issues like the one you mention doesn't mean we can't chew the fat over the tittle tattle. Any rebuke to a point stating "ah but there's more important things than that" is quite flimsy. Of course he should congratulate them but what would stop him acknowledging that they are part of team GB? "Well done to all of team GB at the Winter Olympics and particular mention to Eve and her team etc etc" something like that maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't always have to be matters of strategic importance Just a wee bit sad that a man in his position would behave in such a fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burma Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Whether anyone is happy with the conlibs or not doesn't really matter. The chances are they'll both be gone next year, while independence is forever. Maybe things would be better but I think there's an equal chance they would be worse and that's not a gamble I am personally willing to take. But you are willing to gamble that things will not be worse under Westminster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the jambo-rocker Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 True, and people on the Yes side are burning david Bowie CDs - both are irrelevant to what the actual campaigns are doing Implying that Scottish people are behind the times. Everybody knows that burning CDs was so ten years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orlandoblue Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 But you are willing to gamble that things will not be worse under Westminster? Things are fine for me and my friends and family though. As I've stated on another thread too I'm equally happy sharing Scotland's wealth between Nairn or Newcastle. I draw no distinction between people from either place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may also rather represent a Scottish team but don't have an opportunity to do so. Or maybe they don't care as it's a chance to go to the Olympics.

orlandoblue Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 London is in Scotland now.. righty ho... No England but we are all part of the UK sharing resources etc. I suspect you knew that though and didn't really think I thought London was in Scotland.
