Dear All
One of things that the Scottish National Party cannot shy
away from is the hate campaign which is directed at people who speak out
against their bid for independence.
The Scottish National Party has preached what many see as
anti English rhetoric from their conferences, gathering as many people from
different little groups who hate the British establishment and its policies.
Two people who stand at the head of the queue to 'blame
the English' are Scotland 's
'jolly fat man' Alex Salmond and Scotland 's unpopular Deputy First
Minister Nicola Sturgeon. Her current persona in politics which has been used
to sway the gullible is 'Caring Nicola'.
Her previously 'superhero' persona was 'Angry wee Nat'
woman, is it a bird, is it plane, well it definitely isn't 'super woman'. As
Health Sec, 'Caring Nicola' was leaving Scots to die from cancer despite drugs
being available to save them.
Despite that the sycophants that surround her and Salmond
where strangely quiet as their fellow countrymen and women were left to die!
Not one of them decided to stand up for Scotland, not one
of them decided to fight for Scots, another Nationalist gimmick used to con the
voters.
If you speak out against Salmond and his warped judgment,
you face the wrath of the Cybernats, the modern equivalent of the dark arts
practiced by the Nazis in their rise in pre war Germany.
Just as German Jewish shops were targeted as not fitting
into the new doctrine, fast forward to 2014, angry nationalists have called for
a boycott of Scotland ’s
largest independent travel agent.
Barrhead Travel.
Barrhead Travel is now targeted after its founder urged
staff to disregard the SNP’s “lies” about leaving the UK.
Regardless whether you subscribe to what he said or not,
his business employs Scots, and the Cybernats want it destroyed.
Munro says he was determined to set out “the facts, not
the lies being put out by the SNP.”
And the facts have been strangely amiss when it comes to
asking for them from Salmond.
In the 'new order' if you ask questions, there will be "consequences".
When Munro sent his email, little did he know of the
storm that was coming his way, scores of Nationalists took to the Internet to abuse
Bill Munro, even comparing the entrepreneur to Robert Mugabe.
I don't remember a story of Bill Munro ever rigging a
vote, but I do remember several stories of SNP members connected to Alex
Salmond and Nicola Sturgeon doing it.
Famously there was the case of 'rising star' Alex MacLeod
who committed election fraud.
He worked for Salmond.
Munro sent an email to most of his employees warning that
a Yes vote in September would be a “complete disaster” for the travel industry.
So, what is he unhappy about?
Among the concerns he raised were a separate Scotland ’s debt levels, currency, EU membership,
North Sea oil revenues, interest rates, public spending levels and the cost of
leaving the UK .
On debt, Salmond says he will renege if he doesn't get
the pound, that has consequences for everyone who has a home in Scotland .
£5,000 on a mortgage, and if Scotland wants to borrow
money on the open markets, they will pay a premium rate, well above the norm,
you don't renege on debt and get away with it.
On currency, this is a hot topic because the UK won't share the pound, that leaves Scotland in a
difficult position. With no Scottish currency planned, that means no central
bank and no lender of last resort, that means cuts to budgets and services,
huge cuts!
On the EU, well, as history shows and archive BBC
footage, unpopular Nicola Sturgeon completely showed how utterly incompetent
the SNP is on international matters, that was messed entirely. Scotland would be shut out of Europe
as some of the members are said to be likely to vote No because of their own
domestic political situation. That means no more EU grants after September 2014
if Salmond was to pull off a miracle. It also means that issues to whether EU
law was still valid come into play. The EU is one of the biggest disasters that
Salmond and Sturgeon blundered into, making false promises and wild
accusations.
As to North Sea oil, when one of the oil fields closed
due to a problem, it wiped £4.4 billion off the books that is the entire
education budget for a year. Although the SNP talk about a trillion and a half
under the North Sea, it isn't a trillion and a half they get to spend. That
depends on various factors some relating to cost and some relating to rate of
extraction. The North Sea is useful but it cannot solve all of Scotland's
problems.
As to interest rates, an interesting question is who is
going to set them if there is no currency union? Also who is going to run the
Scottish Central Bank, indeed is there going to be a Scottish Central Bank?
Will they be issuing government bonds? Would they also be the 'lender of last
resort'? Will the Scottish Government have a Gold reserve? If so, how much do
they plan to hold as a reserve? We hear talk about an Oil Fund from the SNP
because they are trying to play off Scotland
can be like Norway , but Scotland isn't Norway , not in any respect socially
or economically, and never will be, no matter how many episodes of Borgen that
Nicola Sturgeon watches.
If you are a keen watcher of politic and finance
programmes, you may have possible are aware of the Russian Channel RT.com, in
general, they cover a variety of interests, but one programme worth watching is
the Keiser Report from by Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert. The first part of the
programme is a discussion by Max and Stacy on current events, second half is
usually a guest spot. One of the shows, Max made a statement, he said that Alex
Salmond was economically illiterate, because he doesn't want independence, no
Scottish currency, no Scottish central bank, and he has a point. Alex Salmond
isn't fighting for Scottish independence, he has sold his party a pig in a
poke, and they are too stupid to speak out.
Or is it they are afraid of what will happen to them as
they have seen what has happened to others in the party who speak out?
Who knows!
So, Munro does have valid concerns, his interpretation
maybe open to counter, but what he got goes well beyond acceptable levels.
The nationalists responded by urging Scots to boycott the
firm.
So, let us be clear, for one man sending one email, the
Nationalists wish to destroy the lives of more than 800 people.
At the same time, bizarrely they argue Munro’s intervention
amounted to bullying his staff.
Given the vote is secret, Munro would never know if one
or eight hundred voted yes or no!
He said:
“In response to an increasing number of questions from
Barrhead Travel employees regarding my views on the referendum, I decided to
share my opinion which is that independence would not be good for Scotland ,
its business or customers.”
His email said:
“For Barrhead Travel and most, if not all travel
companies, it will be a complete disaster, especially with branches in England and Ireland . Thirty-seven per cent of
our business comes from England
and we would not be able to trade outwith Scotland
due to Scotland
being outwith the EU and English regulations for at least three years.”
Munro concluded:
“The devil is in the detail and as the weeks pass and
more is discovered the magnitude of the impending disaster should there be a
Yes vote becomes ever more apparent.”
His email also introduced to his employees an analysis by Robert Lyddon, an international
banking consultant, which concluded the remainder of the UK could not agree a currency union with a
separate Scotland .
As we have already seen in Southern European countries,
the one sizes fits all doesn't work without complete integration such as the
current UK setup, Greece is
an example of a country which cannot
marry up properly to be Euro. Although the Euro sounds good in principle
application is another matter entirely.
Did anyone ever think it was possible that in a European
country you could end up eating out of bins?
Although less we forget, the UK is not without its problems,
some of them are severe but independence doesn't cure the problems of
inequality.
The Lyddon report also warned of savage cuts to public
spending to bring down a separate Scotland ’s debt levels and
“damagingly high” interest levels.
This is because the 'white paper' isn't a 'white paper';
it is a 'white manifesto' for the Scottish National Party attempt in 2016 to
try and win what they think will be the first independent Parliament.
Hundreds of nationalists took to the social networking
sites such as Twitter and Facebook to state they were boycotting the company
and attack Mr Munro personally for exercsie free speech.
One cybernat said:
“Will never use you again. I will be urging ALL my
friends and family to do the same.”
Another urges:
“Boycott them now”.
And so to Nationalist smearing:
“So many comments were just plain lies it cannot be taken
seriously. Mugabe-like behaviour.”
A fourth unhappy camper listed companies such as
Woolworths that have gone under in recent years and predicted that Barrhead
Travel “will be the next big name to liquidate after today’s Vote No Lies”.
So much for people exercising free speech in a democracy,
however the SNP don't want a democracy, they want a one party state where they
always control Holyrood and the Government.
Labour MP Jim Murphy for East
Renfrewshire , tweeted:
“Nationalists’ attempt to bully Barrhead Travel, a great
Scottish company, are totally out of order and won’t work. They have a right to
say No.”
He added:
“This is the worst type of negative politics from Yes
campaigners."
What Alex Salmond and unpopular Nicola Sturgeon have done
over decades is 'poison the Nationalist well' to such an extent that there can
be no viable attempt at independence under their leadership.
The results speak for themselves, although the Scottish
National Party try and say this has nothing to do with them, we should remember
that people connected to the leadership and who Alex Salmond and Nicola
Sturgeon know personally have been involved in hate campaigns. The tactics used
go beyond normal politics and hark back to 1930's Nazi Germany. The SNP is filled with people who aren't
Nationalists whose agenda is that they 'hate the British', for example the
republicans or 'Sein Fein lite' as I dubbed them. They don't give a toss about
the people of Scotland and it shows in what the SNP are currently doing in
Holyrood.
Political records should be judged in their entirety and
how long it takes to act, clearly the Nationalists have a lot to learn. The
backlash against Munro is an example of how intolerant the views of ordinary
people are to anyone who stands in the way of a Yes vote and Salmond. After the
defeat of Salmond and Sturgeon, the SNP clique will try and carry on usual,
however no one will be forgetting what was done and it will won't be brushed
off as 'heat of the campaign'.
Alex Salmond, Scotland's 'jolly fat man', First Minster
of Scotland, a man married to a woman old enough to be his mother, and who has
an adultress as an aide, he is history. He can clear his desk and take Joan
McAlpine into political exile with him, to finish his book, an apt title might be 'I am
no Nationalist’.
One thing is certain, Fascism is back, how long will be
before 'Kristallnacht' when Nationalist ‘Blue shirts’ decide to smash the
windows of Barrhead Travel?
