According to both YouGov and Populus, the SNP are looking at a comfortable victory in the Scottish Parliament elections on May 3rd.
UK Polling Report, a YouGov spin-off, says that the last time a poll showed anything other than an SNP win was November last year.
Worst case, SNP has a 4% lead over Liebour; best case, a 7% lead.
A Scottish company, sendapoo.com, has the following incitement to commit an act of racism on the front page of its website:
Not sure what to send this St. George’s Day? Why not send a poo to your favourite (or least favourite Englishman!). Send one now and select scheduled delivery for arrival on 23 April.
Racism under English and Scottish law doesn’t just cover colour racism (although it often appears to be) but includes nationality. Inciting someone to send a plastic poo to an English person on St Georges Day just because they are English is racist.
I suggest that any English person offended by this anti-English racism firstly makes a complaint to the CRE and secondly registers at tesco.com and gets a bag of chips sent to postapoo.com’s offices. A bag should provide enough chips for their shoulders for a couple of days. Or you may want to post your own poo (not literally your own, that would be unhygenic and breaches countless public health and postal laws) to them.

Traitor Blair has appealed to Scottish voters not to vote for the SNP in the May elections.
He tells the Scots that independence would cost every Scottish household over £5,000 per year because of their £11.9bn budget deficit.
Previous attempts to stop the SNP from taking control of the Scottish Parliament have centered around their dodgy maths and some vague, intangible “benefits” of the union.
The SNP think that an £11.9bn budget deficit minus £7bn of oil and gas revenues – a lot of which rightfully belongs to England – means they are running at a £3bn budget surplus and subsidising the rest of the UK. The “benefits” of the union all seem to come under the umbrella of some mysterious thing called the “union dividend”. The “union dividend” has thus far remained an unknown quantity (I guess it’s hard to be anything other than vague when there don’t appear to be many benefits of union) but Bliar has finally quantified it – a £5,000 per houshold subsidy from the English taxpayer.
It’s quite pathetic that the only reason the Prime Minister can actually come up with to preserve the union is an involuntary £11.3bn donation to the Scottish economy by the English taxpayer and his speech is little more than thinly veiled bribery. In fact, it’s not even thinly veiled – it’s a bare-faced bribe – vote Liebour and your household gets 5 grand out of English taxes, vote SNP and you’ll have to find the extra 5 grand yourself. Liebour have even revealed an election slogan – “Break up Britain, end up broke”. You couldn’t make it up!
I wonder if Bliar will tell me how much breaking up Britain would cost every household in England. If it’s going to cost 5 grand to every Scottish household (about 2 million of them) then there must be at least 2 million households elsewhere in the UK better off. As Wales and Northern Ireland are also running at huge budget deficits that leaves … oh yes, England.
The Times says that there are at least 8 other life saving drugs that are refused in England but provided on the NHS in Scotland.
This is probably part of the mysterious “union dividend” that Gordon Brown keeps talking about. Where else in the world could 85% of the population be denied life saving cancer treatments whilst still be expected to pay for the same life saving treatments for the other 15%? Nazi Germany? Apartheid-era South Africa?
The Commission for Racial Equality are obviously too busy to take this racist government to task over things like medical apartheid.
The Scottish Accounts Commission, an agency of the Scottish Executive, has told the Shetland Islands Council that it must do more to live within its means and start spending only what money it raises.
Does this mean that every council in Scotland is going to be told to only spend what it raises? Currently, Scotland has a budget deficit of £11.3bn which is plugged by a subsidy from the English taxpayer via the Barnett Formula.
I’ve just sent the following to the Accounts Commission:
Hi,
I read the story that the Shetland Islands Council has been told it must only spend what money it raises and found it most encouraging.
Do you have any idea when you are likely to tell the other councils in Scotland that they must also do the same, thereby relieving the English taxpayer of the £11.3bn burden of the Scottish budget deficit?
If you listen very carefully you can still hear the tinkling of the dropping penny down at Downing Street.According to our leader-in-waiting, the UK is being menaced by an “opportunist group of nationalists” who are “playing fast and loose” with the union.
Apparently, “it is very important to recognise that Britishness and Britain itself is not based on ethnicity and race” but “it is founded on shared values that we hold in common: a commitment to liberty for all, a commitment to social responsibility shown by all, and a commitment to fairness to all.”
On the subject of the Conservatives “English Votes on English Laws” proposal, the Tartan Taxman said that it would pull the union apart. However, he fails to offer an alternative solution to the West Lothian Question whereby he and his colleagues elected in Scotland can vote on matters that only affect England and not their own constituents.
Alex Salmond, the leader of the SNP, says that the Ignorant Jock is only protecting his own interests and that “he is equally blind to legitimate English grievance of bossy Scottish Labour MPs interfering in English only matters, such as health and education”.
The hypocrite then goes on to say that “it is now time for supporters of the Union to speak up, to resist any drift towards a Balkanisation of Britain and to acknowledge Great Britain for the success it has been and is.”
Balkanisation, for those of you who may not be familiar with the term, is the act of breaking up a country or region into smaller competing regions. Labour have done just this by giving Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland back their nationhood with their own governments and breaking England up into 9 euroregions.
How dare this ignorant, hypocritical fool criticise nationalists when he is one of those responsible for the rise in nationalism and seperatism thanks to his anti-English hypocracy and discrimination.
Jack McConnell, First Minister of North Britain, has promised to give Scotland the best education system in the world by 2020.
He plans to open specialist centres of excellence to push bright pupils and to make it compulsary for all 16 and 17 year olds to be in education, training or a job.
There’s no mention of how he’s going to pay for it though. North Britain currently has an £11.3bn budget deficit which will rise again next year as the Scottish Executive continues to spend, spend, spend and the Chancellor continues to give, give, give. How will it be paid for? By more English taxes of course!
The BBC News website has an article on the union in which the writer – a political editor for BBC Scotland – questions the value of the union.
The article only appears on the Scotland pages of course, we can’t have English people seeing someone questioning the value of the union after all.
The article asks “So just how should we commemorate the Act of Union – whose tricentenary falls next year?” and concludes:
In each case, we should ask: would Scotland, would the UK, be better served in these areas by sustaining or repealing the Union? Is it too much to expect a mature, evidence-based debate, relatively free from rancour and bile? Given how much is at stake, it probably is. However, I ask nonetheless.
The BBC Have Your Say can be found … nowhere. There isn’t one. Typical stuff from the BBC – talk about the union but only in Scotland and dont, under any circumstances, give anyone an opportunity to actually express an opinion unless it’s the “right one”.
Alex Salmond asks if, given that the majority or MP’s with Scottish constituencies are opposed to Scotland hosting Trident, they are to have it “forced down the throats of Scotland”.
Whilst the SNP choose not to vote on matters that affect only England (for which they should be commended), the same cannot be said of their colleagues from north of the border who cast the deciding vote on university top-up fees and foundation hospitals, both of which were rejected by a majority of MP’s elected in England and only affected England.
Could the moral of this story be “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”?
The New Labour election fund Barnett formula has been sending even more English money to our neighbours.
The Times has today published an article explaining exactly how much of our taxes goes to our thieving, subsidy junkie neighbours leaving our health service so underfunded that cancer patients are told to shut up and die because we can’t afford the treatments our taxes are paying for in Scotland and Wales.
The Chancellor – elected to a Scottish constituency – sets the rates for the Barnett Formula and has, once again, ensured that Scotland’s loyal Labour voters receive more money than those dastardly Tory voters in England.
UK government spending in Scotland was an average of £7,248 per head compared with only £6,361 per head in England. The difference between spending in England and the rest of the UK has jumped significantly with Wales now receiving £7,248 per head and Northern Ireland £7,597.
The Scottish Parliament has the ability to vary income tax in Scotland to raise more revenue, thereby reducing the burden on the English taxpayer but this would cost valuable votes for Labour who have only a 66 seat majority in the British parliament with elections looming in May next year.
The Conservatives have responded with an attack on Labour for their discrimination against the English which they now accept is leading to the break-up of the union.
The SNP has responded with the “oor oil” argument, again ignoring the fact that a lot of it is actually “our oil” and in spite of figures showing that if Scotland received North Sea oil and gas revenues it would still have had a £3bn budget defecit.
Labour responded by saying the SNP figures on oild had been discredited. Because that’s relevant.
Yesterday’s phone-in poll amongst Sun readers resulted in 81% of people saying they wanted English independence from the rest of the UK.
A poll in today’s Sunday Telegraph shows that a massive 68% of English people believe that England should have an English Parliament and 48% of people believe that England should declare its independence.
What is most interesting is that English support for North British independence is higher than in North Britain.
The figures are as follows:

The SNP are predicted win the North British elections next year and with a win will come the end of the union. The fact that it will coincide with the 300th anniversary of the Act of Union and the 50th anniversary of the European Federation (if the UK doesn’t exist then England won’t be in the European Federation either) will make it even more meaningful.
Gordon Brown told the Scots yesterday that they didn’t want independence and neither did the English yet this is the latest poll to prove that is a downright lie. The Welsh Assembly was established on the back of a 51% yes vote in which only 50% of the country participated. If this is claimed as the settled will of the Welsh people then how many more polls like this is it going to take to force the Scottish Raj to hold a referendum in England?
When the union is dissolved, Labour will pay for it’s anglophobia. The SNP have taken Labour’s majority in North Britain and the Conservatives have long been the choice of English voters with Labour relying on a combination of votes from north of the border and gerrymandered electoral boundaries to win the last election. The Conservatives will lose their beloved union because of their unwillingness to support equality for the English. The Illiberal Democrats are nothing and without their combined vote in England, North Britain and West Britain they will soon disappear off the political radar.
The Ignorant Jock is at the North British Labour Conference today (well he wouldn’t be at the English Labour Conference – there isn’t an English Labour Party) to tell the North British Labour Party faithful that independence would be a disaster for the nations and regions of the UK.
No doubt he’ll harp on about this mysterious “union dividend” that we apparently all benefit from. At first I thought the dividend might have been the subsidies paid out via the Barnett Formula but the dividend is supposed to benefit us all and the Barnett Formula costs English taxpayers billions.
The SNP are predicted to win the North British elections next year and have pledged to hold a referendum on independence when they do so. This has Labour worried as their biggest support base is in North Britain where they regularly use MP’s that have been elected to North British constituencies to pass laws in England.
The Tartan Taxman and Traitor Blair are actually telling the truth when they say that independence will be a disaster for North Britain. Over half of their GDP comes from the public sector whilst the entire country is insolvent, requiring billions of pounds of subsidies from the English taxpayer to pay the bills and keep the North Britons in the lifestyle to which they have become accustomed.
Whilst I remain a unionist, I do not agree that the union should be preserved at all costs. If the cost is the abolition of England and discrimination against its citizens then the price is too high. Ending the union would benefit England immensely and doing so on the 300th anniversary of the Act of Union would be appropriate timing. At least nobody can accuse us of not giving the union a chance – we’ve given it 300 years and it just isn’t working!
A poll in the Scotsman shows that 51% of North Britons want independence from the UK whilst only 39% oppose it. Labour have also slipped 2 points below the SNP to become the number 2 party (no pun intended) in North Britain. Strangely, the BBC fails to mention the poll but our American friends seem to think it newsworthy.
I’d just like to say it’s been a real pleasure being united with North Britain and they’ll be sorely missed when they declare independence … but my mother always taught it was wrong to tell lies so I won’t. Take your budget deficit, take your bad attitude and take your share of the national debt north of the border and stay there. Good riddance.
Jack McConnell, the North British First Minister, wants their nuclear waste dumped in north England rather than in North Britain where it is produced.
The British government, Scottish Parliament and Welsh Assembly are currently thrashing out a deal.
North Britain is roughly 2/3rds of the size of England but has only 5m inhabitants with England having 50m. Most of North Britain is unoccupied and undeveloped with hundreds of uninhabited and/or uninhabitable islands. Dumping nuclear waste in the north of England where, if something were to go wrong, it coule affect millions of people rather than dumping it in the Scottish Highlands where, if something were to go wrong, it would affect a flock of sheep and a few badgers is plain stupid.
If we had an English government the idea wouldn’t have been entertained, let alone seriously discussed. North Britain produced the waste, they use the power, they welcome the jobs, taxes and vast sums of money that the operators of nuclear power stations throw at the local area to keep them happy.

North Britain plays Ukraine tonight. The match is live on BBC2 … come on Uuuuuuukraine. 😆
The North British Executive has pledged £9m in international aid to several African countries.
This is interesting for a couple of reasons, the first being that North British receives several billion pounds more than it contributes to the Treasury and therefore has no money to give to Africa and the second being that international aid is a reserved matter and should actually be the sole reserve of the British government.
But only in North Britain of course and only as long as the English taxpayer is willing forced to pay for it.
The Childrens Commissioner for North Britain says that it will help improve parenting skills and relationships if single parents are paid to stay at home to look after their own kids. There doesn’t seem to be any mention of families with two parents being supported to stay at home to look after their kids but then that wouldn’t pander to the victim culture where kids from single parent families are almost talked into having problems by lefty liberals.
The Childrens Commissioner doesn’t suggest how North Britain would actually pay for this either. There is already an £11.3bn a year defecit in the amount of tax they pay north of the border and how much they get back out of the Treasury which is plugged with English money. Such a huge financial burden would require serious cutbacks in public services if the English taxpayer isn’t to be lumbered with yet more demands for extra money while services are cut back here.
Peter Hain, Northern Ireland and Welsh Secretary and prize bigot, has got his knickers in a twist over Tory plans to stop MP’s that don’t represent English cosntituencies from interfering in English-only legislation.
The bigot supports the Labour Stazi policy of anti-English apartheid and minority rule and sees no problem with him being able to vote on matters entirely restricted to England when he can’t vote on those same matters in his own constituency.
Hain is a firm believer in devolution … but only for Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland. He thinks that the Tories policy of English Votes on English Matters (EVoEM) will break up the union … but stopping English MP’s from voting on devolved matters in the rest of the UK won’t. He also thinks that stopping MP’s not elected in England from voting on English-only matters will create second-class British MP’s … but stopping English MP’s from doing the reverse hasn’t. He believes it is his “right” to vote on English-only legislation … but not to vote on devolved matters outside of England.
The only thing consistent about the bigot‘s arguments is that they are consistently inconsistent.
I can’t be doing with politicians that say one thing in North Britain and one thing down here. It really, really pisses me off. If the North Britons are going to get all upset if you don’t tell them they’re all direct decendents of Jesus, deserve the nobel peace prize for services to anglophobia and generally the cream of society then don’t even bother talking to them – they’re a dead loss.
David Cameron has told a conference in North Britain that English ignorance of North Britons and North Britain is one of the biggest threats to the union. Racial hatred of the English which is reaching epidemic proportions north of the border, it would seem, is conducive to stronger union in Cameron’s mind.
I think David Cameron may have just lost the Tories the next election. If Labour stays in power because of his ineptitude, ignorance and vote-whoring I will personally track him down and ram a full set of bagpipes up his arse.
