I can think of only one good reason for Scotland to seperate from the rest of Britain. And that is that if it succeeds it will become an independent country and will have to apply to become accepted by the European Union. Like Albania. And will have to prove its economic viability and its desire – Read More-
“THERE’S A FUCKING GREAT HOLE IN THE OZONE LAYER!!!!!” they exclaimed (hence the exclamation marks; if they’d just kind of ‘said’ it, we wouldn’t need the punctuation). “AUSTRALIA WILL MELT!!!!! THE SEAS WILL RECEDE!!!! ELEPHANTS WILL GO BLIND!!!! THE WORLD WILL END!!!!!!!” “THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT OUR PLANET FROM DYING IS TO STOP USING – Read More-
Its all to play for. The season’s young. There’s everything to win, nothing to lose. Its a fair game. Except when its not particularly fair. Its not fair for Chelsea to have bought Diego Costa and then use him to personally destroy the high hopes of Swansea. Its not fair that Spurs pissed away 100 – Read More-
Not a lot of people know this but I have a degree in psychology. Doesn’t everybody? No??? Well, I do. And the reasons are historic, complex and involve impressing women and being easily led astray; the story of my life. And of course, I’ve forgotten most of the stuff, because a. that’s what you do, – Read More-

And they’ll have to be a bit brave as this spectacular edifice, this monument to sport and all its riches, sits basically in Sodom & Gomorra central. In the urban slum that – Read More-
People who use electronic cigarette devices are called ‘vapers’. They ‘vape’. They don’t smoke. Because instead of noxious shit and tar and dead leaves and stuff, WE now instead inhale our nicotine in a harmless… stuff. In fact not just harmless but I’d say totally beneficial to the vaper and all those around him. I – Read More-
There are currently 650 electoral constituencies in the UK. Of which 59 are in Scotland. About, say, 9%. And if Scotland buggers off (‘devolves’) then those constituencies will simply cease to be any part of our political system. And if you work on the assumption that, since Mel Gibson wiped the blue paint of his – Read More-
I have but one question regarding the now seemingly distinct possibility that Scotland may gain the independence it (or some of it) desires. And its not a question about currency. Nor how long the North Sea oil will last (Alex Salmond says “almost forever”, people in the oil biz say “about 3 weeks”), nor whether – Read More-
There’s a bit in Monty Python’s Life of Brian where a man explains that he is no longer the leader of Popular People’s Christian Front, they were disbanded and replaced by the Popular Christian People’s Front, not to be confused with the Popular Front for Christain Peoples, who are a right bunch’a tossers… And where – Read More-
