Donald’s really taking the pics out of us now

-

NIGEL Farage compared the EU to the Mafia. This was after he woke up with a horse’s head, before realising he was looking in the mirror. SO what is a Scottish American? Presumably somebody with a rotten diet and even more rotten speaking voice.

I say this because Sheena Easton has returned to the UK. Though obviously her accent is still waiting on a visa.

Aye, the Bellshill-born singer is in the West End in hit musical 42nd Street where she belts out songs like We’re In The Money and Getting Out Of Town.

Nae idea why that part called out to her. Sheena does acknowledg­e her Scottish upbringing toughened her up. I mean, her baby took the morning train. David Cameron got slated just for leaving his in the pub.

Sheena hasn’t lived here since 1981 when there was a woman prime minister, the Tories were in power and the UK was ready to go to war over a far-flung territory.

Good to see a lot has changed. Sheena claims there aren’t many roles for for her these days. Wait, she’s a rich white US citizen with no experience of politics. Come on, she’s odds on for a wee gig in Donald Trump’s cabinet.

Which takes us to that other famous Scottish American. A woman who claimed damages after she was photograph­ed peeing on Trump’s golf course, has lost her case. The judge said that despite the invasion of privacy, he couldn’t forgive her for adding an extra water hazard to an already tricky par four.

Meanwhile, Donald’s wife Melania has been causing controvers­y with her official portrait. If looks like she’s been touched up. Something I’m sure she’s used to being married to Donald Trump.

The Trumps of course are no stranger to airbrushin­g. The previous victim being history.

In the picture Melania posed with her arms folded sporting a wedding ring with a huge rock. Next to which you can faintly make out a Spanish warship coming into view. On that, the population of Gibraltar is 30,000, roughly the same as Wishaw. One of course is a sparsely inhabited rocky landscape, famed for CELINE Dion has announced a concert at the Hydro. She says she’s delighted. So why the long face?

Celine also promised that if for any reason she can’t make it, don’t worry. Her heart will go on. primates roaming about and could very quickly turn into a warzone. The other is Gibraltar.

The truth is, Trump’s administra­tion team is the richest in history. His top 27 officials are worth a combined fortune of 1.8 billion roubles.

Donny boy might even be ready to come back to Scotland, offering to play a round with Nicola Sturgeon. Only one thing to say to that – here’s hoping he means golf. ●Barack Obama is popping to Scotland next month. We don’t have his itinerary, though I’m pretty sure I know which golf courses he won’t be teeing off at.
