Some?

Must admit, I don't care whether he's innocent or guilty, we could do with some more politicians with the energy of Tommy Sheridan, regardless of their political position, it'd be nice to get some of the old punch-ups and obscenity throwing we used to get in Parliament before they let cameras in and everyone got boring. At least then you knew they cared about something, even if you thought they were prats.

The only thing is, Sheridan is a narcissistic egomaniac Stalin-worshipping crackpot.

Heh, well, his political position isn't one I'd agree with, but it always annoys me that the most passion we see in politics these days is when Tony starts moving his arms. Nowadays it all feels like going through the motions. Even when I was young, I remember every so often there'd be a punch-up in Parliament. Personally, I say that's good for politics.

Wasn't there also a law that it was impossible to commit slander whilst speaking in the House of Commons?

Edit : Just checked, there still is apparently.

[aldo_14]

Oh, I'm not against passion.  Passion is good.  I'm just noting that Sheridan is an apple short of a fruit machine.

Would we be greeted as liberators?

[Ford Prefect]

Yes. And Bush would ride in on a horse dressed as William Wallace in front of a big "Mission Accomplished" banner.

However, I don't see this happening. I don't think our president would want to sacrifice his nightly sessions of fellatio from Tony Blair.

No you'd be greeted like a fart in spacesuit.

The whole Scottish independen, ce seems a little strange to Americans.  I mean, America itself is so diverse that to have a country seperate because one has a tendancy to have more reddish hair and freckles and speak with a somewhat different accent than the other is a little deranged to us.

That's probably because americans have **** all knowledge about Scottish history or culture.

We should push for Texan independence.

Braveheart is closer to farce than history.

[Colonol Dekker]

Good, i'm glad you said it not me, The though of Armour clad people stopping cos you lot mooned us is ridiculous.

Agreed, but now we have an entire generation of Scottish teenagers who think that's what really happened.
