Ive just put on that "evergreen 3 day greening" on the lawn
just sprayed it over the lawn then 1/2 hour later the rain lashed down, giving it a right soaking
so fingers crossed the lawn and drive way will be looking really lush and green in a few days  |

I'm not German, nor do or have I lived in Germany, so I can't really comment re Angela Merkel.
However, NS's latest nonsense over fox hunting does her little credit, imho. On the one hand, she wants independence from the UK, but on the other, she wants to decide and influence what happens in England!??
To my simple mind, that's as nonsensical as wanting independence from Westminster, but happy to be ruled 100% by Brussels! |

It is a provocation. The tories are blocking the scotland bill. The foxhunting bill is the perfect balance of emotive and low risk to show that the 56 have some clout. |

I think they do actually care about foxes and about people who care about foxes. You're right though, it's a spanner in the works and it worked - voting to support Labour no less. Remember them? |

think it will just cause a mass invasion of illegal immigrant foxes hiding in trucks to cross the border into scotland thinking we are an easy touch taking advantage of our poor bin collection system and before you know it they will all be plasterers and brickies taken up our jobs  |

"Does anyone actually think the Tories will let the Tartan Tories away with pulling a stroke like this?
Revenge, even if eaten cold, will be eaten."
THINK !!!!
We know it will happen, as you say, only a matter of time, and all scots will suffer |

56 National Party MPs set the ball rolling on that before this latest non vote. Again, in support of your beloved Labour Party. So I guess any misgivings from the Tory party going forward will be the fault or the Tartan Tories and the Red Tories as they were voting together on the fox ban. |

As a person who voted Conservative, I do think NS conducted herself throughout the election in a very credible fashion. She came across really strong, informed and worthy of office.
I think this latest event, detracts from that a little.
Sad to see but good luck to her. |

Its a good Job Scotland doesn't follow in America's footsteps - Abraham Lincoln, James Abram Garfield, William McKinley, and John F. Kennedy.
or the attempted ones such as; Gerald ford & Ronald Reagan
If it was the case, David Cameron would never visit scotland |

It wasn't that long ago she said on BBC Question time that the SNP would not vote on purely English matters such as fox hunting. Now they decide to vote and, I believe, take down part of their website which said as much.
Politicians - don't we just love their honesty and sticking by their word and principles? |

The simple fact is that the longer the SNP are in power, the more they get caught out with their double talk, and basic lying.
Alex Salmond was getting caught out on a regular basis, and although Nicola Sturgeon has been very clever since being made leader, it would appear that she hasn't really learnt from the folly of AS's double dealing. |

Funny that when the SNP do what their membership and constituents ask them to do, ie the fox hunting bill, it's double dealing.
When the Cons, Lab & lib dems go back on all their pre Ref promises it's just 'one of those things' or plain old fashioned politics.
I'm good with double dealing.

After so many statements about not voting on purely English matters I am disappointed the SNP can just chuck that policy in the bin. Removing the statement from their online mission statement is not justifiying going back on their word. |

If you think that's bad, check out their duplicity re fracking and in particular what they tell Ineos and what they tell Joe Public. |

I have just seen all the replies... Credit where it id due Nicola played a blinder in the election... But she now seems to spend a lot of time in London. Mhairi Black...Awesome first speech but as a political student should anything else have been expected?
Glad to see the cybernats are out in force...
Very pleased to see the the only other self confessed Tory in the room spoke up as well.
We are skinny on the ground but we still exist

where else would you expect a general elected mp to be ? you do know it wasnt a local election ? |

Only fault with Mhari Black,s speech was that she seemed to forget the party she is representing, socialism is not something I,ve seen in the snp,s policies in the past 8 years they have been in power.
I have yet to see "leftist" (remember Tony Benn was an inspiration to her) redistribution of wealth policy put in action hete in Scotland by the snp, have you?

"With such a strong indigenous economy here in Scotland she will be the obvious successor to lead the fourth Reich... "
Absolutely not
here laws on firearms are apauling and now she has even tightened laws on air pistols.
The young kids of today will grow up without knowing the farm yard fun of shooting, or the respect meeted when handling guns, and that begine with air pistols.
Guess she is planning ahead with her policies and ensuring she wont be shot.
Its gonna get to the point that no one will be able to enjoy the sport of shooting and no one will know how to handle a gun, we see that already in the armed forces and within the police,

"Our Mhairi sticking it to the Tories yesterday was genius  "
Im English, been here for 45 years, am an SNP supporter and was so proud of Mhairi. It was a difficult thing to do for any 20 year old but she managed to encapsulate the difference between the two cultures. |

"56:650 was never going to achieve much.
56 useless jobbies even less so."
Some of those 56 useless jobbies have brought to the "UK and World attention" what is going on behind closed doors
David Cameron said he would respect the defeat of the government motion by 285-272, and ruled out joining US-led strikes; then thought he would never get caught by - yes joining the strikes
But it is now coming out into the open, thanks to some of these "56 useless jobbies"
At least Cameron is being pulled up now, when he puts his finger up to the UK public |

It' just been on the BBC news and they never mentioned who revealed the information, however the BBC website does:
'The information emerged following a Freedom of Information request submitted by the human rights group Reprieve.' |
