Scotland the brave!!

Hootananny for a pint before Inverness literary festival gig. Great food. Proper Scottish from the Cullen skink to the lamb stovies. Decent beer. Music later. Secondhand tables, candles, vermillion walls, nice staff. Could be in Berlin! YES signs in lampposts outside. Scotland doesn't need the imperialist euro phobic English tie. It could and should  be a European nation in its own right!! Go for it , Scotland. Don't be cowed! 
First time I've ever put same post here and on 'beer among friends'

Beware of the Boris

London's shamelessly populist mayor Boris Johnson is now prepared to jump on the ukip bandwagon that has turned David Cameron's conservatives back into the nasty party and threatens to make Britain the nasty country of Europe! Why do politicians strive for power when all they will achieve as in tony blair's case will be the condemnation of history?
