Is it just a coincidence?

Bat21 · 16-02-2009, 20:00

That both banks at the head of our current woes are Scottish?

As are the two goons now living at 10 & 11 Downing Street?

Just wondering that's all

Translated into Sasenach

Scots, who have with Wallace bled,
Scots, who Bruce has often led,
Welcome to your gory bed
Or to victory!
Now is the day, and now is the hour:
See the front of battle lour (impending),
See approach proud Edward's power -
Chains and slavery!
Who will be a traitor knave?
Wha will fill a coward's grave?
Who so base as be a slave? -
Let him turn, and flea!
Who for Scotland's King and Law
Freedom's sword will strongly draw,
Freeman stand or freeman fall,
Let him follow me!
By oppression's woes and pains,
By your sons in servile chains,
We will drain our dearest veins
But they shall be free!
Lay the proud usurpers low!
Tyrants fall in every foe!
Liberty is in every blow!
Let us do or die!

Getting back to the original question about the banks. They are all just greedy b******s and they got caught out, by the yank fools.
Yes lets all let the tories back in and we'll be back to the early eighties with +4 million on the scrape heap.

well scotland has its own parliament and good for them, england hasnt yet has scottish
mps/pm prociding over. suggest let scotland take over england has devolution is working
north of border and generally Scots are better respected around world than english.

maybe england should be split up into 3 areas, west country has much in common with
wales, the north of england (the split being as per n/s divide ie line from wash to severn
become governed by scotland jobs a good'un. oh sorry missed last 3rd, ah well france or
europe can have them southerners. think sooner or later wont matter what you are or
call home as when euro takes over will be just USE anyway.

polictically reckon ready for new ideas, get away from the red - blue battle, try gold or
yellow libs. if proportional representation brought in, think popular in mainland europe
would get libs in power, they have taken some cities here in recent years where folks
sick of traditional bickering / tug o' wars.
