Whether George Galloway is a twat or not, one has to admire his indefatigability. :lol:

That'll be Alex Salmond the Jambo :?: :lol:


ps Willie Ross is my nomination
Should Scotland be an Independent country?

Yes, I believe Scotland is a country and should therefore govern itself.
No, Scotland is not a country it is simply part of the UK and should therefore be governed from London.

In that case, I forgot to mention George Foulkes. :roll:

Also in reply to 4th Gen, I had to include a Lib Dem in the interests of political correctness, in the same way as all the candidates have to get a mention when it comes to an Election. On reflection though, are there any objectionable Lib Dems or are they all too nice?

Hume, it's okay, I took it as a joke. Sometimes with forums the intended meaning can be misconstrued. Hum(e)our can be missed. Even smilies sometimes can be taken the wrong way. Actually with more thought I should have included George Foulkes in my original list.

The Lib Dems weren't very nice when they shoved out Charles Kennedy, just because he liked a dram! :(

He was the best leader they had in decades.

Did you ever have a couple of spare years to read The Brus by John Barbour? You'd need the heart of Bruce to get through this!

Book 3 deals with his exploits in Kintyre and at Dunaverty Castle.
