Salvation is imminent, the Broon bawbag is back

I have been heartened in the pursuit of independence from the pigsty because Daphne Broon has re-emerged from the shadows to lead the recalcitrant and politically stupid Scots back to the path of unionist righteousness. We are to be guided back to the light of Westminster's beneficial paternalism by the most discredited Prime Minister in history after Mad Tony. He was of course, Mad Tony's right hand man and the man credited with ushering in the worst financial crisis in British history. He is also the man who disgraced himself by comprehensively lying through his teeth during the Scottish independence referendum and was the author of the infamous vow, a statement of betrayal that will resonate throughout our history. He was also one of the principal authors of Scottish Labour's defenestration and subsequent demise as a serious political force. The Bible warns us to call no man fool, but I struggle to find another appropriate description for this pathetic excuse for a human being. What is remarkable is that he has the audacity to once again emerge into daylight and actually think that anyone with even one brain cell will listen to him. What is even worse is that he offered his wisdom in Kirkcaldy, birthplace and home of Adam Smith, a real Scot. I trust the good people of Kirkcaldy will suitably tar and feather this imposter and charlatan.

It is testament to the state of British politics that under the last four Prime Ministers, the British economy has crashed, we have the worst poverty and widest inequalities of any advanced economy. We have embraced racism and a hatred of immigrants. We have moved sharply to a xenophobic right and have been taken out of the single largest market in the world to face a completely uncertain future because the Westminster gang have quite happily admitted that they have no idea what is coming next. The Labour Party has reached a state of terminal decline. The British state is almost certain to break up in the near future. The Tory Party have gone from a membership of three million to less than 100,000. It is not a joke to say that Manchester United have almost as many season ticket holders as the Tories have members. We have a dogmatic and intolerant Prime Minister who no-one outside of the parliamentary Tory Party has voted for and who persistently lectures the Scottish people about democracy. We are in genuine crisis. Westminster has quite genuinely, and quite deliberately reduced the United Kingdom to a state of terminal decline and political insanity. I mean it, British politics makes no sense whatsoever, and, at the risk of being repetitive, this is the real legacy of the Blessed Margaret. It is the logical conclusion to Thatcher's vicious and hate filled agenda. Remember Adam Smith's warning to us that "the great never look upon their inferiors as their fellow-creatures" and contemplate that the British elite think that they are the great, and indeed are taught to think like that in their exclusive education system. It should not come as a surprise that the British hate foreigners and the working class who they consider their inferiors, and in the eyes of the Westminster elite there are none more inferior than the Celts, whether they are Scots or Irish.

Again remember Smith's maxim that "all for ourselves, and nothing for other people, seems, in every age of the world, to have been the vile maxim of the masters of mankind" and consider that Thatcher's principal policy that has been followed slavishly since 1979 has been the systematic transfer of wealth from the bottom upwards. What else are the Tories policies of austerity, which have been characterised by a persistent diminution of income and wealth for those at the bottom whilst those at the top have seen obscene increases in wealth, bonuses, tax breaks etc., but a deliberate and systematic policy of looting the national treasury. As I keep saying, this situation is the result of an ideology that has dominated western society since the 1970's, an ideology of elitism, exclusivity and entitlement, an ideology that breeds greed and hate. If I can leave you to ponder a couple of Smith's other observations I ask you to consider them in light of the government's attitudes towards the poor and disadvantaged and with respect to the pigsty's attitudes towards Scotland and the majority of the UK that lies outside of London and the South-East of England

"Society, however, cannot subsist among those who are at all times ready to hurt and injure one another. The moment that injury begins, the moment that mutual resentment and animosity take place, all the bands of it are broke asunder, and the different members of which it consisted are, as it were, dissipated and scattered abroad by the violence and opposition of their discordant affections....
What chiefly enrages us against the man who injures and insults us, is the little account which he seems to make of us, the unreasonable preference which he gives to himself above us, and that absurd self-love, by which he seems to imagine, that other people may be sacrificed at any time, to his convenience or his humour."

That's what the pigsty does, it hurts and injures, creates animosity and resentment by the violence of its discordant affections, injures and insults the Scots, the working class, the poor etc. and gives certain groups and regions unreasonable preference. Finally, the majority of the British people are being sacrificed to their convenience and humour. Can anyone seriously deny that the bands of British society are being broken asunder? All that is self-evident. Why is it that the people who persistently quote Adam Smith and invoke his authority for their hideous policies never read him? You have been warned.
