COULD THE WEE GREEN MEN FROM MARS BE NO SUPPORTERS?.

Rumors are now circulating about mysterious alien forces employed by the "Better Together" campaign. They claim that BT were able through a hitherto unknown process of osmosis to force yes voters to put their crosses in the NO boxes. Senior government sources have admitted that they feared this might happen because they have been aware of unexplained signs of brain interference in the 'Yes Camp'. Soon to be retired snp chief 'heid banger' alex salmond is said to be incandescent with rage and demanding a full investigation and an immediate re run of the referendum as he rages incoherently about the "Engurlish Bastards" whom he claims "have all goat it infamy".   

WHEN WILL THE REST OF THE WORLD PUT A STOP TO ISRAEL'S CRIMES?.

Salford Trades Union Council Motion on Gaza

Motion Reads:
This Salford Trades Union Council condemns the outrage perpetrated by the Israeli State, by its attack by land & by air on the population of Gaza.
Israeli has now crossed the rubicon of humanity by the destruction of life & its disregard for property. It pursues the illegal building of settlements and annexing of East Jerusalem in contravention of UN resolutions that call on them to desist and return to its 1967 borders.
The renegade Israeli State has consistently ignored United Nation's call for the return of Israel to its 1967 border's.
This Salford TUC demands that:
- mis-named Israeli Defence Force (IDF) cease its continuing bombardment of Gaza City & surrounding area's.
-the IDF remove its armoured weaponry out of, the area known as the Gaza Strip.
- Israel frees Marwan Barghouti and the thousands of political prisoners being held on concocted charges.
- those member's of the British Parliament who are "Friend's of Israel" question why, by association, they support the actions in Gaza.
We call upon the world to:
- condemn the Israel State & ask Israeli citizen's to renounce its government's policy.
-boycott all Israeli goods & services until progress is made towards returning land stolen from Palestinian people, as per relevant resolutions UN resolutions..
- support any call for Israel to be removed from all European Sport connections while the blockade of Gaza and illegal occupations continue.
We call on Hamas to:
- cease their missile attacks on the people of Israel, so that talks on a lasting peace can recommence.
The acts of inhumanity cannot be justified, the history of the Jewish people's os one of centuries of human misery and yet they allow this perpetration of another race to occur in their name.
The Salford Trades Union Council, fully supports a two state solution based on a peaceful transition.

Motion Ends.

WHEN IS 45% GREATER THAN 55%?. WHEN SALMOND AND HIS SNP FLOCK SAY SO APPARENTLY.

The last refuge of the "tartanshirt" scoundrels that is social media still contains some of the shell shocked 'useful idiots' who bought salmond's lies. Their rage is strong and their hatred is palpable as they stammer out their loud-mouthed defiance. It must be difficult for some NO campaigners not to feel a pang of sympathy for them but, not for me. They are behaving in defeat exactly as they did in the campaign, shamefully. The lies, abuse, and belligerence continues as the predictable and wretched cries of "we were cheated" ring out and the world looks on askance as they humiliate Scotland with their grotesque reactions to the clear, decisive and richly deserved defeat. Can anyone recall the Labour Party accusing the snp of cheating when they won in 2011?. Did Labour call for a rerun?, did Labour try to declare themselves as winners despite losing?, did Labour accuse the snp voters of being tricked?. One victory for the snp in a referendum would see the end of all elections, there is now no doubt of that.  

The NO campaign was always IMO going to win but two things happened to our advantage as polling day approached, these two things were connected and they were catastrophic for the separatists. The first happened because they were becoming aggravated at their lack of growth in support and they made what turned out to be the biggest blunder of the campaign. They decided to take a chance on fear, they turned to negativity and in doing so they chose to use the most emotional and provocative of all subjects, the Scottish NHS. They deliberately started scaring the old and defenceless, the parents of young children with serious and chronic conditions and those for whom the NHS is a constant comfort blanket in their lives.


Battle commenced immediately on this volatile issue and this led to the second catastrophic event to hit the snp in the campaign, this was the angry intervention of the man who is still by far the biggest political beast in the UK Gordon Brown, and he was not pleased. Overnight he became the story and the separatists were immediately in a panic as he cut a swathe through their lies and shabby deceitful tactics. With 3 weeks to go the 'Scottish Lion Roared' and the whole of Scotland listened and so did the UK as he went on a rampage across the country galvanising the NO campaign, crushing our opponents and steadying the ship containing the 'silent majority. From the point that he intervened the yes campaign were bound to lose, all the big hitters on the NO side tactfully stepped aside as 'big Gordy' shook salmond and the yes campaigners warmly by the throat. there is nothing in UK politics more guaranteed to strike terror in to an opposition than the approach of Gordon Brown when he is 'ready to rumble' and so it proved as he delivered the result with a little help from salmond and the snp whose bottle crashed at a crucial time. All thanks to Gordon Brown. He clearly has a huge part to play in politics, possibly Scottish politics if he wants to meet the challenge, I hope he does.

“NOO THEY ENGURLISH B******S UR MESSIN WAE OOR BRAINS” (ALEX SALMOND).

Rumours are now circulating about mysterious alien forces employed by the "Better Together" campaign who were able through a hitherto unknown process of osmosis to force yes voters to put their crosses in the NO boxes. Senior government sources have admitted that they feared this might happen because they have been aware of unexplained signs of brain interference in the 'Yes Camp'.

SALMOND DEPARTS AND THE SNP CRAZIES PREPARE FOR A BLOODBATH.

"all political careers end in  failure" (Enoch Powell). If there was ever a political career that deserved to end in failure it is that of alex salmond. Make no mistake about it the announcement of his resignation represents an ignominious failure. With apologies to TS Elliot, "he goes out not with a bang but with a whimper”. His one political goal in life was independence, it was 'thee' single issue, his ‘raison d'etre’, and he has failed to deliver it despite being snp leader during a 20 year build up to this moment. The hatred also that he has created among the Scottish people will take decades to fade if indeed it ever does and it will be his legacy.

The defeat in yesterday’s referendum was decisive and unequivocal and certainly robust enough to settle the matter for at least one if not more generations and that will negate the success he claims of getting 1. 6 million Scots to vote for independence. The profile of those who supported the yes campaign is such that it excludes huge swathes of the population and draws heavily on the poorest areas, without salmond and without a chance of another referendum in the near future that momentum will be lost. All that has really happened is that people who do not normally engage in politics through no fault of their own will now drift away. They have been rallied by dangerous rhetoric based on grievance against our neighbours in England who have been identified as the enemy and seduced by uncosted promises of a better tomorrow, a tactic which, as we know has been used before as a cruel deceit by dishonest charlatans. Everything that the separatists could have hoped for has happened and helped to gain that momentum and it was still nowhere near enough.
His leaving also leaves a huge gap at the top of the snp and, the man responsible for this is salmond himself. He has methodically and cynically over the years created a leadership structure which makes him look good because, quite frankly, those promoted by him are pedestrian in the extreme. Neil, Russell, Swinney, Hislop, Constance, McKay etc. lack gravitas and intellectual rigour. Perversely enough Nicola Sturgeon who will start as favourite to succeed him is the most high profile and over promoted one of all and is simply not credible as a First Minister. He ‘salmond’ has thus presided over a rise in political representation for the snp, gained control of Holyrood and delivered a referendum while at the same time leading them in to a very vulnerable position if they lost the referendum which they did and if he goes and he is going.


Casting a very large shadow over all of this is Gordon Brown. There is growing speculation that he might be eyeing a seat at Holyrood and he is still the biggest political hitter in the UK as was demonstrated this week with his explosive intervention in the referendum which helped to consolidate the NO vote and gave the whole campaign a huge lift. The personal abuse used by the most mild mannered snp supporters toward Gordon Brown is a clear indication of how much they fear him. The fillip that Brown’s presence and possibly Alastair Darling’s as well would give the Scottish Parliament would be difficult to overestimate. And the boost to Labour’s electoral appeal would be massive. Interesting times ahead.             

THE FAT LADY SANG AND DECENT PEOPLE JOINED IN THE CHORUS.

The fat lady has sung and her song was liberating and cleansing. Almost 3 years of lies and intimidation by the yes campaign brought to an end by that hope for mankind, ‘the ballot box’. I awoke this morning to find that the Vote NO posters in the windows of our house had been removed by a very relieved and scared family member. This was done as soon as the result was announced.

This morning there are many many decent people who can sit back and allow a feeling of pride to wash over them, they have been forced to watch their country being consumed by hatred and bullying, they have been forced to endure aggression and abuse the likes of which has not been seen since the days of Mosley’s Blackshirts, all emanating from the yes campaign, the bullets being issued by alex salmond and latterly the truly wretched Jim Sillars and fired by the mob.

The much spoken about ‘silent majority’ watched and patiently waited, they were horrified but they knew that they would eventually get to play their part, their resolve never wavered and their determination to stamp out this evil was solid, their revenge if you will would be “a dish best served cold” and yesterday they struck with a vengeance. Simple black crosses on ballot papers, millions of them all across Scotland reclaimed the streets from the marauding  ‘tartanshirt’ barbarians. The ordinary decent citizens, the undemonstrative people who live next door and are simply good neighbours to all of us struck at the heart of the nationalist brute and destroyed it and I salute them. “Nationalism is a disease” (Einstein). Racism, fascism and nationalism are bedfellows and the price we pay to control them is constant vigilance. The great German playwright Bertotl Brecht put it better than I ever could when he said about the demise of Hitler in his play “The resistible Rise of Arturo Ui”. Do not rejoice in his defeat, you men. For though the world has stood up and stopped the bastard, the bitch that bore him is in heat again.

THE FAT LADY HAS CLEARED HER THROAT AND SHE IS NOW PRACTICING HER SCALES.

The man with the big cigar and the rolls Royce “The Bookie” started paying out on a NO victory in the referendum yesterday, Monday, September 15, 2014. That’s 3 days before the poll. WTF does that say?.

IT'S ODDS ON A NO VICTORY AS THE FAT LADY CLEARS HER THROAT.

The snp and their followers have, as I predicted brought ignominy on Scotland through their yes campaign. The behaviour of their followers has been frightening and embarrassing, reminiscent of scenes which were last witnessed in the 30’s as the Moseleyite blackshirt mobs of The British Union of Fascists used violence and intimidation to deal with anyone who opposed them.  Considering the squalid history of the snp it is no surprise at all that we have witnessed this thuggish behaviour.

They have lied again and again since the start of the campaign, creating phantom groups of pro independence supporters, using deception to ensure that  a majority of their supporters could pack TV meetings and other meetings in public halls. They have also been traducing every opponent who challenged their bizarre assertions no matter how qualified and distinguished they were in their field. Celebrities as well who dared to show support for the UK have been subjected to the foulest abuse imaginable and supporters of the NO campaign have been disinclined to display their support  for the union by turning up at meetings, putting posters in their windows at home or stickers on their car windows for fear of violence and or vandalism, this is not Weimar Germany at the time of Hitler and the Nazis folks, this is Scotland at the time of the snp and alex salmond.  

The day approaches, will the people of Scotland choose to vote NO thus favouring reason, debate and truth or will they choose yes and plump for odium, belligerence and mendacity?. The United Kingdom has survived for over 300 sometimes turbulent years, sometimes it has been one step forward and two steps back but the overall result thus far has undoubtedly been progress. That is not to say we are satisfied or complacent, far from it but the more observant and analytical among you will I’m sure conclude that this struggle is by definition a long haul, look at any other country and you will find problems and yes we have our share.

In my own lifetime I have been able to listen to parents and grandparents tell stories of what could only be described as hard hard times when lives for people like us was often short and brutal, their lives testify eloquently to the progress that has been made under the union. Compare if you will the progress made in the fundamental fields of Education, Health, Housing and the Welfare State among others. These improvements would of course have happened without the union but I find it hard to accept that they would have been as inspiring and certainly not as rapid.


I will therefore vote NO, not only for my children, and their children but in remembrance and appreciation of my parent’s and grandparent’s generations, their struggles and their vision, for their courage and sacrifice and their dream of the future, that is the torch we carry, let’s make sure we do not drop it, VOTE NO.

A BRUISING AND UNCOMFORTABLE ENCOUNTER FOR THE SNP POSTER BOY.


I watched Labour’s Douglas Alexander on the “Scotland 2014” programme last night where his opponent was Humza Yousaf, rising star of the hard working snp Asian community as they debated independence. I mention this because I want to advise people to watch this mismatch, you can find it on line. Catch it if you can because it could turn out to be the last time you will see Mr. Yousaf  on our screens, at least until the referendum is over.

A couple of nights ago I watched the same Douglas Alexander toy with the snp’s Nicola Sturgeon like a cat with a mouse, the makeup of that programme and the recent bad publicity for the snp tartanshirt  street mobs made it impossible for her to morph into “Sturgeon Stairheid Snarler” and consequently no one noticed her. Douglas Alexander’s task was easy and it showed on the night, proving that you do not have to yell if you are armed with the facts and the truth.

VOTE EARLY AND VOTE OFTEN IS THE SNP WAY.

A shocking example of the kind of people who populate the snp was captured on TV on Tuesday morning. In a referendum programme from Dundee billed as an opportunity to change the minds of those voters who are undecided.  The audience were divided in to three groups, no, yes and undecided. The latter group were expected to say at the end whether anyone had gone from ‘don’t know’ to being decided. What followed left even the most deceitful yes campaigners stunned, a guy said he had been persuaded by the arguments to go from No to yes, he was obviously enjoying the camera so much that he rambled on a bit and ended up saying he voted yes by post the day before the TV programme!, cue uneasy quiet and toe curling shame for the yes camp. The horrified looks on the faces of the snp gang behind him caught on camera told their own story, two of them, Denis Canavan and Shona Robison looked as if they were frantically trying to locate the nearest exits. Funny?, well, yes in a kind of painful way for the snp as the smiles quickly wore off and people started to be aware of what  they had just witnessed. They quickly realised that the yes camp had actually planted this guy as a convert to the yes cause in the ‘don’t knows section’!, and the looks on the faces of the audience and the woman chairing the meeting all clearly thought the same. The yes people, some of whom obviously were not in on this latest snp fraud stood around looking at each other hoping for a hint of what to do but there was none, all they could do was shrug their shoulders, bow their heads and exit  a.s.a.p. I advise everyone to search for this and have a look, here was proof positive if any more was needed that the snp are running continually on lies and cheating, they truly are beneath contempt.

THE PROCLAIMERS DONATE £10,000 TO THE YES CAMPAIGN. THEY ARE BIG FANS OF THE GREAT ARTHUR DALY.

Big picture of The Proclaimers on the front page of The Herald today, they gave £10,000 to the yes camp and immediately got much more publicity than £10,000 could possibly buy in return. These millionaires are “flinging their money about like men wi nae airms” as the ‘old fella’ used to say.  They cannae play and they cannae sing, but they are as fly and sleazy as any Capitalist hustlers or Shake Down Artists out there and they are great businessmen. They have a niche market and they are going to cling to it just like Andy Stewart and Harry Lauder did before them. The money they donate is an investment. Between them they have two eyes crying with pity for poor old Scotland and the other two shining with financial calculation.
