Most would agree on Northern Ireland, at least.

Bearing in mind, the UK Exchequer subsidises NI to the tune of £1 billion, every MONTH! Just to pay its bills.

Consequently, NI is smart enough to know it's going nowhere - why should they leave the UK when they receive this huge level of support?


The Republic of Ireland is barely surviving economically, and couldn't afford to annex NI - and, post-Brexit, the EU have zero interest.

NI will be a part of the UK for ever - a legacy of a decision made, about 100 years ago.

When It was decided to give independence to the Republic - and to keep NI, as part of the United Kingdom.


JK2006 I interviewed Salmond on Talk Radio way back in the 1990's and told him he'd make a good PM, in my opinion, if only he could get rid of the silly Independence issue. These days, after Brexit, I am thoroughly in favour of both Scotland and Northern Ireland removing themselves from the SU (Stupid Union). As for Wales - no point. They have always been just a county of England with a silly name and language.

Not too well up on Scottish politics - but I don't think that Alex would view Nicola as a friend, these days!

But the inevitable investigation(s) - by the SNP and, perhaps, others - will throw light on the background to this extraordinary list of accusations.

Made by numerous women (one allegedly a ring leader - who contacted the other accusers before the trial) - all involved in the Scottish political system.


On the steps of the court - after the trial - Alex intimated that more information would soon be made public.

Hopefully this will make things clear - and show Nicola's role (if any) in these matters, as well as that of others.



Honey Giving in to bullies doesn't help anyone in the long run.
