But Scotland is a country. Not a region.


Next week, Dave, maybe.

That's not how democracy works.


If it consistently seems to work better for some than others, it's
hardly a surprise when they tell you to stick your democracy.


By "work better", do you mean "those with minority opinions don't get
their way all the time"? Hey-ho.


Actually if they make a fuss, they do get their way all the time.

The silent majority are the ones that are oppressed, and that's why when
you meet em, they are 100% pro UKIP.

Its strange to have strangers wishing you well, cars tooting at you in
the street, and waving and yelling 'stick it to em';' just because you
have a purple rosette ...
