Scottish Secretary Jim Murphy offers London Labour's crumbs to the SNP Government to abandon referendum on independence













Dear All

Scots Secretary Jim Murphy is the man with no job.

He is the Secretary of State for Scotland.

Having no job and serving no purpose, Jim Murphy has time on his hands; his “new” job if it can be described as that is attacking the SNP Government for being successful.

Yet again, because he hasn’t anything else to do, Murphy has urged the SNP Government to put its plans for an independence referendum on hold.

This is to get his name in the headlines as there is a General Election in the near future; Murphy wants to keep his seat.

He is mindful of a strong Tory and to a lesser extent SNP challenge in East Renfrewshire; he needs all the publicity he can get.

He says that SNP plans for an independence referendum are a distraction from economic recovery and few Scots see them as a priority.

The sad fact is that the union is dead, Scottish people are awaking up to that fact in vast numbers, recently Scottish Athletes picked Flower of Scotland for the Commonwealth Games in Delhi.

Freedom is our birth right, freedom from English occupation.

The sop to try and buy off Scottish people is the pledged to deliver more powers for the Scottish Parliament if Labour wins the next election.

Didn’t Murphy just say that the priority is economic recovery?

New powers are result of one thing, the success of the SNP to move the Scottish agenda forward.

While Murphy offers crumbs on behalf of London Labour, the over riding fact remains, Scotland is getting closer to become a free nation again.

The last bastion of the so called British Empire is coming to an end.

The only way for a strong Scotland to be represented in Westminister is by the presence of a block of SNP MPs.

The British Labour Party has used Scotland and its people long enough.

Only a strong SNP Government committed to the ideals of public service can put Scotland back on the road to success.

In 2010, a vote for the Scottish National Party is a vote to drive change forward.
