alex salmond is a anti-english fud

1707-2007

God Save OUR Queen

[baronsarwarofgovan]

Fillmoose: You are welcome to her! Upon her inevitable demise, perhaps you could have her stuffed and mounted on the walls of Kinning Park Orange Halls, as your dwindling numbers toast Queen Betty and her dominions.

[fillgoose]

dwindling numbers?,you must be a member of the snp with blatant lies like that,The snp's narrow victory in Scotland was a kick up the backside for all the REAL partys in our country,The snp,the msps and and all the un-educated in society who voted for them will find out soon enough that salmond is only interested in destroying a perfectly good union,and to feed his masssive ego

British and proud,as are the majority of scots

[baronsarwarofgovan]

Yes, FillHoose, dwindling.

2003 Non-SNP vote: 76.23%

2007 Non-SNP vote: 67.07%

You should buy a new dictionary - your current one obviously has an odd definition of the word "dwindling". Perhaps you could rethink your comment about the un-educated in society.

Off you go. You have a lot of practice to get in before the 12th. Walking and drum-bashing are obviously difficult activities for you.

Gracious in victory, enthusiastic about Scots and Scotland and promoting Scotland before anything else...Alex Salmond will be remembered as a great Scot.

Looks as if you Jocks have got yourself a Great leader . A statesman of world class. A wonderful sense of humor and a razor sharp wit. someone you can send to the UN and be proud of ! This will show the world that not all Scottish politicians are boring English arse kissing failures Like Blare and Brown.

Go Scotland ! your Celtic cousins ( most of them ) i Wales are behind you. We'll keep a welcome in the hillside for Mr Salmond

[ballochdubh]

Getting support with favourable quotes is easy, with restrictions its difficult,but i think living in Scotland is great.Free education,free perscriptions,free drink and drugs and rock and roll.Get real all this has to be paid for.Just take a look at Greece, so you dont think it can happen here ? well it can and Alec should be warned by the numbers of economists who have fired the warning shots.The SNP also seem to have a lot of support from people with little grasp of the British language odd ?.

Shivers of appreciation. Watching in retrospect in Dec 2011. What a legend. Never, ever have I encountered a more impressive man, politician & human being. Alex will go down in history for sure. Thank you Eck and thank you B.O.S. for uploading!

[james24387752]

alex is without doubt the greatest politician of our time and will go down in history as the man who unites scotland and gives scotland and us scots back our pride, our country our freedom
