Your tractor stats leave out the fact that without Scotland's left wing MPs the Labour party would have not been in government as often as they have been and will not be in the future. Hence the damage that has been done by them in Scotland and the rest of the UK would not be nearly so bad and merit not mediocrity would still be predominant and Scotland would be happy to remain in the union.

As I see socialism as the architect of all our woes then the blame must lie with the Scots. You are building a socialist utopia north of the border(good luck with that) and because of the influence of the number of left wing MPs you have at Westminster you are doing a very good job of exporting it to the rest of us.Antistheneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10120647617145756102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-41621363010801937502013-12-10T13:35:10.070+00:002013-12-10T13:35:10.070+00:00Wasn't the last London Warmonger Blair the Sco...Wasn't the last London Warmonger Blair the Scot?<br /><br />Wasn't the last London Spendthrift Brown the Scot.<br /><br />Wasn't London Austerity introduced by David William Donald Cameron, son of the Ian Donald Cameron the Scot?<br /><br />We are all in in together for certain.JimShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09295953179246578687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-67955934518025955492013-12-10T10:55:00.451+00:002013-12-10T10:55:00.451+00:00Is it any wunner wur aw still ditherin an hummin a...Is it any wunner wur aw still ditherin an hummin and hawin on wit tae dae.JRBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01864418763227369458noreply@blogger.com
