  • Hello MrDhu, lets move on from that one, off now to hoist the Union flag oot ma windie.

  • @Hullawthere Do pay attemntion he put one salary into a charitable trust. Where ahev you been? Don't you get the news where you are.

    He's taken the same salaries as all other FMs.

  • @RifledBarrel First I heard that.

    What about us Gaels then?

  • @cheesemybob

    Don't think Alex would agree with about that, sir. He gets on quite well with the Queen as I understand it.

  • Amazing, all the Labourits will be shutting up about Alex taking two wages now.... CURRAN! and don't forget Dewar did too. Alex was first to donate it to charity, just like a large chunk of his Westminster pension.

  • @Hullawthere Aye but to suggest he somehow benefits from his Wesminster wage is a bit tenuous, isn't it? It goes to charity, not into his pocket.

  • oh dont get me started on wee alex not representing his electors at westminster and taking a wage which he gives to his charity, anyone else get paid for not turning up for work?

  • Is this Alex Salmond you are referring to? I'm fairly sure he donates his Westminster wage seeing as he doesn't sit in parliament.

  • Scotland also now has a shocking amount of green energy just waiting to be exploited - 20% of its wind energy with less than 1% of its population, not to mention the potential wave and tidal energy.

    Independence is our only way forward now, the UK has served its purpose. Friendship and respect towards the rest of the UK, Europe and the world is the only way an independent Scotland can flourish and I expect this will be the case.

  • It was hardly a united nation considering there were several tribes which fought with eachother constantly.
