It’s taken me a couple of days to calm down after the result in the Glenrothes by-​election!

What were you thinking of people of Glenrothes? Not only have you voted for the most disreputable, lying, cheating and dangerous party to have taken power in this country, you voted for the most useless, idiotic candidate I’ve ever seen standing in an election — nothing more than lobby-​fodder for the New Labour project. After Margaret Curran in Glasgow East that takes some doing.

Fife, Scotland

Of course, the stinking pile of shite that purports to be the “Scottish” press didn’t help by issuing Labour propaganda as “news” on a daily basis with video headers to boot. The Glasgow Herald is probably the worst for this but the Scotsman and the BBC are little better. As for the red-​tops in Scotland they just are not interested unless there’s a football angle to the story!

The Labour candidate, Lindsay Roy, spend the whole campaign wittering on about reserved issues that he will NEVER have any influence over and I sincerely hope he lives to regret it — even now his website has a banner declaring “Stop SNP charges & cuts”. FFS the only reason for charges was because the Labour Party brought them in and the SNP/​LibDem council had no alternative as the previous Labour council had left things in a desperate state.

I also heard nothing about the Labour councils that have also had to levy charges or the fact that they applied to a tiny minority who can well afford to pay them or that 1000 more of the poorest benefit from free services as a result.

If Mr Roy is the best that Scottish education has to offer then God help us all. Inarticulate, lying, bumbling and by his own admission “not a politician” — why the fuck was he standing for election then?

I feel very sorry for the population of this constituency who have suffered under Labour councils since the Second World War. They fell for the lies, deceit and scaremongering fed them by the scum that pretends to be the party of the working man aided and abetted by the corrupt press and media in Scotland.

Roll on the next General Election. With any luck Labour will be deep in the shite by then as their idiotic, self-​interested “policies” finally collapse around them. England will vote Tory in their millions and Scotland will suffer once again…

…UNLESS we take the initiative ourselves and vote for the only party that has the interests of Scotland at heart, the SNP.

I will concede that Alex Salmond should have kept his council before the election. His pronouncements that the election was won probably did appear to be arrogant by some — I’m sure he will learn from this as he is obviously the only competent party leader in the whole Scottish Parliament.

BBC NEWS | Scotland | Scots ‘higher’ on happiness scale.

You know, a lot of people have been noticing a change in Scotland over the last wee while.

I can’t put my finger on it but there is definitely a feeling of optimism around.

Unlike the rest of the UK house prices are rising, if only slightly, and employment is growing.

We’ve seen the SNP make a pretty good job of things so far given their very slender 1 seat lead.

I was impressed by the sharp contrast between the professional SNP campaign in Glasgow East and the hapless pish that emanated from the Labour camp.

They deserved to lose just on their performance in the campaign let alone for the graft and thievery they’ve all indulged in.

So yes, although I wasn’t asked!, I think I am a little happier for being in Scotland these days than I have been for a while.

I’ve often said that I’d like to live to see an Independent Scotland and I’m beginning to think it might just happen

This says it all!

Saw this comment on an article in the Scotsman and it’s got to be a piss take, surely!

Apparently this dude calling himself Da Bear is worried about our civil rights as there was a scare that maybe the swords used for sword dancing were to be banned under new legislation. It’s so Brig-​a-​Doon it’s fantastic.

Umm… You folks are so screwed … Sorry for the American idiom, but why the heck do you allow your Scottish heritage, traditions and identity be tossed down the politically correct toilet of such governmental tyranny? I have read enough Scottish history to see the deep burning fires of freedom that seared your hearts for 600 years, and now… what.. soft mannered droids, dependent on the failed dreams of a Socialist workers paradise , entire generations without passion and soul? How can any Scotsmen or Scotswoman look at themselves in the mirror each morning and not be ashamed of their lack of basic freedoms? No guns, no knives, no protection from criminals, no free speech, no privacy, almost no property rights, and no possible redress of the Orwellian nightmares of immigration and nationalization.

Wake up and smell the falafel’s…I hate to spread the unvarnished truth, but you folks are so screwed!

Of course, everything he says is absolutely true, by heck!…

…it’s just the image of indignant rage that makes me laugh.

I fucking hate “Braveheart” Yanks and their stupid sentimentalised view of Scotland.

And of course we all know that the US is the “Land of the Brave…”, well for those that still survive.

FREEDOM!! (As long as you’re rich)

No, the way to Independence and away from the ‘failed dreams of a Socialist workers paradise’ is not through the ‘deep burning fires’ of passion but through the democratic process.

Scots have a more realistic view of themselves and I hope we’re now seeing that Independence IS an option.

Just make sure that when the election comes round that you keep the faith and vote SNP.

Conservative and Lib Dem leaders in Scotland have spoken of their serious concern over Wendy Alexander’s policy shift on a referendum on independence.

Personally I’m delighted!

Bendy Wendy and her band of no-​hopers are the best thing that could have happened to Scotland.

The longer she’s “in charge” of Labour in Scotland the better the chances of the SNP increasing their lead and finally bringing us to Independence.

These arseholes are so used to calling the shots that they can’t get it into their dull, thick heads that they can’t do what they want any more. We put up with them for generations and now, I hope, the Scottish people have finally had enough of this corrupt crony ridden bunch of crooks.

The dearth of talent is obvious — a choice between Andy Kerr and Wendy Alexander!

So, not much point in getting rid of her as they’d just have to replace her with another numpty.

I’m loving it all!

I really hope that Headcases picks up on this…

…there couldn’t be a better candidate — they could just portray her as she is!
