Dear All
At some time you may have experienced personal humiliation,
it can be quite cutting especially if done publicly. In politics the Scottish
National Party has a track record of trying to humiliate or belittle people in
the British Government.
If you watch politics, the classic example was Nicola
Sturgeon doing a photo op with Theresa May in Bute House and having only the
Scottish flag on display. This was done to belittle Prime Minister Theresa May
as other non Scottish politicians get the flag of their country situated behind
them during their photo shoots.
The act by the SNP was petty and undignified, but in
politics what goes around comes around
as they say, and now it is revealed that Theresa May has snubbed Nicola
Sturgeon by not responding to when Sturgeon wrote her ‘Letter of Edinburgh’ calling
for power to hold second independence poll.
You might remember the incident, the photographers where
brought into Bute House to see Nicola Sturgeon penning a letter while having
her feet up on government furniture trying to create an impression of warmth
and homeliness. The letter was to ask for another Section 30 order to have a
second referendum. In the 2014 referendum, Nicola Sturgeon was the ‘face’ of
the campaign and led the operation as a Yes board member. Yes Scotland was seen as the SNP front along with
other phoney Yes Groups setup to try and create the impression that it was Scotland
against the Tories.
We even had Labour for Independence
which was a sham that the Scottish Labour Party should have stamped out but in
their stupidity allowed to continue, Labour for Independence didn’t have much support, and
even had pictures of stalls being run by SNP Councillors. That organisation was
headed up by Allan Grogan.
Grogan was said by some sources not to be an active Labour
Party member and his bio above certainly doesn’t credit him with much but then
he is like much of the party in that respect.
Now that senior Whitehall
insiders have said that the Prime Minister has never formally responded to Ms
Sturgeon’s letter, the humiliation is delicious, Nicola Sturgeon’s crew are now
not available for comment. For to comment only adds fuel to the fire of Sturgeon’s
humiliation, and they don’t want to draw attention to the fact that their ‘leader’
from Dreghorn, the shop soiled white hope isn’t a statesman.
The Sturgeon’s letter followed a vote in the Scottish
Parliament which no one really takes seriously as the parliament which is 20
years old has achieved very little other than line the pockets of third rate
politicians in a second rate parliament.
At the time; Sturgeon who hadn’t a people’s mandate decided
to use a Scottish Parliament mandate which the SNP with Green support managed
to get a winning vote. Sturgeon said:
“This is simply about giving the people in Scotland a choice. We agree that
now is not the right time for that choice. But that choice should be available
to the people of Scotland
when the terms of Brexit are clear. So, I look forward to discussion in the
weeks ahead.”
In the weeks that followed there was no discussion simply a
quick one liner from Prime Minister Theresa May:
“now is not the time”.
This little sentence ended any hope of a vote between vote
between autumn 2018 and spring 2019, and fast moving events have seen the SNP
abandon all hope till 2021, at that Holyrood election, it is likely the SNP will
be a minority and there is a chance even with Green support that the SNP couldn’t
win enough votes to get a second Section 30 order.
The 2021 Holyrood election will be a very important election
in the history of Scotland ,
watch this space.
Prime Minister Theresa May has no intention of agreeing to
another vote this side of the 2022 General Election, she believes that Scottish
independence has ‘gone away’, well the longer there is no second vote the less
chance of the SNP support gaining, SNP incompetence in Government isn’t just
killing their election chances, it is enforcing the SNP has been rejected as a
prospective independent government for Scotland.
Let’s face facts, Nicola Sturgeon isn’t a statesman, never
will be, she is what they call in the movies, trailer park trash.
One person who has got his knickers in a twist over the humiliation
is Pete Wishart, he is upset, he said:
Love the fact the Scottish Government was asked for a
comment but declined to give one because having to explain why others think you
are ‘clowns’ is a tricky pr spin at the best of times.
I wonder how Nicola Sturgeon enjoys the public humiliation,
the UK Government ignoring her shows that everyone is moving past the SNP, we
have seen peak SNP; we are starting to see the decline.
The date and place to watch is 2021…. Holyrood….. Scotland !

Hello George
An inspirational blog. Comforting to those of us who are sick to death of the shambolic behaviour exhibited by the Scottish government on a daily basis. Petty, stupid and representative of only the very worst of Scottish politics. You just hit so many nails squarely on thne head.
I am delighted to see your assessment of the snp's prospects at the next Holyrood election. You have the track record to back up your predictions.
I am sure I'm not the only person aching to see the snp fall. The sooner the ballot boxes come out to play the better.
Again, a great blog.

Too bad for her. I remember 'Labour for Yes' - that was embarrassing.
