Remember the days at Wimbledon when Andy Murray was fairly well up the Leaders ladder, if he won he was British if he lost he was Scottish!
Well we have a similar thing going on today, STV announced last night that all rivers in Britain we’re being destroyed by sewage….ALL RIVERS! A similar story appears in many of today’s newspapers.
They obviously don’t know there is a border between Scotland and England nor do they know Scotland’s water is not privatised therefore no sewage is purposely being poured into our rivers or seas.
For the moment I will not buy and shellfish from Supermarkets unless it clearly states it’s from Scottish waters, and the further up the coast the better!
So, here we are at the end of summer and the winter of discontent has already started. I wonder if workers from all Unions will pull the plug and call a General Strike.
Wages are low not because there isn’t any more money but because Shareholders are demanding higher returns as are the CEOs. One day it will click that without the workers there will no dividends. It is the workers who keep the country moving not shareholders.
Will a new PM change things…NO. The furniture might move around a little but the outcomes will be the same.
I hate self-fulfilling prophecies, so at the moment the jury is out even though I am sure it will be Liz Truss.
Hustings are a bit like Elections, many promises are made but few are fulfilled. The fact that she refused to turn up last night to be questioned by Nick Robinson made me think that the votes are all in and she knows the results.
Absolute Power has been won, the only question left is, what will she do with it?
As they say, ‘The power to do good is also the power to do harm’!
