Yes to a picnic

-

Fair comment from PM May.

Sparts Wow, did a Conservati­ve prime minister really say that the Common Fisheries Policy, negotiated and maintained by successive Westminste­r government­s, was a betrayal of Scotland? Better late than never.

Stuart Theresa May wanted the UK to remain in the EU. Ruth Davidson wanted the UK to remain in the EU. David Mundell wanted the UK to remain in the EU. All wanted Scotland’s fisheries to be decided by Brussels – under the deal implemente­d by Ted Heath, a Tory PM.

We’re used to betrayal in Scotland but thanks for reminding us our biggest enemies are not “Westminste­r”, not even EU but our own people. The poor fisherman of the Western isles are reduced to fishing for crabs and shellfish thanks to the SNP’S continued

support of the EU.

But not Walkers shortbread or Tunnocks tea cakes.

“... wouldn’t it be nice if 100,000 people decided to have a picnic on Holyrood Park on a Saturday afternoon.” 100,000?! Aye. That’ll be shining bright!!

“People are not taking well to being told what to do in their own country,” Maybe they should march through Faslane Naval Base.
