The money markets panic – polls and scaremongering, plus currency union lunacy prime causes …

Financial Times headline: " Pro-union camp ‘in chaos’ as poll puts nationalists ahead"  As George Robertson might say "cataclysmic" ...

Better Together has the Worst of Both Worlds - behind in polls, sterling scaremongering causes pound to drop, hurting their rich city friends!

The latest Better Together strategy appears to be to tell voters Westminster has ****** the £ by scaremongering and lunacy on CU - so vote No. G-sus!

Jo Coburn thinks it's all Blair Jenkins' fault, asking questions and interrupting frantically at every second word. Blair is quietly amused, dusts her off with impeccable politeness, then waits calmly for Unionist panellists to rave impotently.

 Blair Jenkins smiles seraphically, taking  occasional sips at his coffee, as Jo Coburn's guests splutter inanely and impotently over polls, markets  and independence.

King Impotent Splutterer himself, Ming Campbell, failed leader of a failed party in a failing Coalition - doubtless a "A proud Scot" -  does his share, indignation and gloom oozing from him.

Blair gives a neat little summation and says bye-bye. Jo switches with relief to the triviality of the Daily Quiz.

That was fun!

  1. First comment disappeared into the ether - so in case it re-appears - I won't repeat it, but it's real good fun stuff that the UK media are now facing demons of their own making - and so serendipitous to boot, Peter.

    1. I rarely look at Google comments, Barontorc, so that would explain it. Just haven't got time. That's why I killed Youtube comments - a torrent of abuse and trivia inundated me daily. Unfortunately there was some good stuff, but the time needed to separate wheat from chaff was insupportable.

      regards,

  3. Blair Jenkins was absolutely brilliant!

    Serves them right for having their heads stuck in the sand for the past 2 years!

    So YES are insurgents now?

    Well I'm very proud to be an insurgent if that is what we are!

    1. Thanks, M.

      insurgent: a person fighting against a government

      Happy to be that, because we are - the Tory Coalition. Of course the term was used - like 'separatist' - to imply violence. A blatant lie.

      regards,

      Peter
