It's amazing how often people confuse being British with being English.

The ones that do are usually followers of the now defunct Glasgow Rangers or Scotland's youngest club, SEVCO. Both tend to wear the three lions shirt.

Cameron far too clever for the SNP. He'll play them like a violin.
Recent polls have shown that the independence camp are still in the minority btw.
Alias calls it a movement.

Yes but the younger ones brains will have developed by then and will see the folly of voting yes.

I have a movement every morning after my first cuppa.

George Kerevan MP
STATE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT... AND MUSICAL CHAIRS

Wednesday is the state opening of Parliament by the Queen. We will get to know just what Bills the Tories are going to introduce. The next few days will see general debates on the main topics (including implementing the Smith Commission proposals, or a version of them). However, there is also likely to be a bit of Westminster games courtesy of the Labour Party. It works like this.

The debating chamber at Westminster was built deliberately too small to seat every MP. The idea was to make it more intimate so that rational men and women of good faith could actually exchange ideas in debate and perhaps reach a sensible conclusion. I respect that ideal even if it sometimes falls short in the practice. The problem is that if the chamber is full roughly a third of MPs cannot take part and so are excluded from representing their constituents in discussion. This is not necessarily a problem if all the parties are sensible and let representatives of each group have space on the benches. Unfortunately, Labour is in a bad mood after its defeat and is deliberately trying to exclude the SNP from getting enough seats in the chamber.

We have tried to put a compromise to the Labour interim leadership but they are either refusing to play ball or actually not returning calls. It could be that they have lost control of their backbenchers. The SNP is only asking to have space for 26 of our 56 members - a handsome compromise - provided we get front bench space. We are more than willing to let Denis Skinner sit on our front bench! However, it seems Labour wants to crowd us to the back and, if they can, actually deny us as few seats as possible. So much for democracy.

So if you read in the media that there has been a dispute over Commons seating, do not think this is trivial or that the SNP members are being childish. Given the system at Westminster, if we do not claim seats we will be EXCLUDED from participation, even though we were elected by our constituents. Thank God the system at Holyrood is more modern.

"So if you read in the media that there has been a dispute over Commons seating, do not think this is trivial or that the SNP members are being childish"

They apparently set up a rota waiting outside the commons door as they were waiting on the opportunity to run in to grab Skinner's normal seat on the actual Labour front bench, not because they needed that seat, but because it was in the camera angle they wanted, so for the duration so they could sit their promoting themselves and making an ar*e of themselves during PMQs etc. That's nothing to do with exclusion from parliament.

Oil prices slumping further thanks to the increase in shale gas extraction world-wide.

Scotland's embarrassment. (akabula note spelling - what school did you go to son?)

The LieDems lied about tuition fees five years ago, thus enabling themselves to become the Tories' flunkeys and grab a few crumbs of power. During the indyref campaign, the LieDems and other BitterTorygether components lied to older voters, telling them they'd lose their state pensions in the event of a YES vote, and lied to Polish and other immigrants, telling them they'd be repatriated in the event of a YES vote. Thus we shouldn't really be surprised at Carmichael's behaviour, because despicable though it is, he and the LieDems have exposed form in lying and smearing in attempts to gain electoral advantage, which was undoubtedly the purpose with his latest, pre general election dirty trick.

David Mundell is now Tory gauleiter for Scotland, undemocratically so since he is the sole Tory MP in Scotland. They have no mandate. He was Carmichael's understudy prior to the election, and it is impossible to believe that his hands, and very possibly those of others, have escaped staining in this episode.

Scotland's embarrassment - Rangers/SEVCO.

Those true blues akabula, trilby and stewarty b tell it like it is.
