It’s that time of year again when keen gardeners flock to the Garden Centres to buy their seeds. The very keen ones go to great lengths to produce the best harvest, so out they trot with the best grow bags and plant food….yes we remember it well and we remember the bills!
But there was a point to it all, the greater the care the greater the reward, if only we were prepared to spend as much time and care sowing the seeds of Independence and Abstention!
It is important though to know the ground upon which you sow these seeds. Yesterday I met an old friend in Carlisle, before she arrived Ray said to me, ‘now remember no Scottish Politics and definitely no negative remarks about the King’😂😂
I knew my ground and kept everything very light!!!
Sow on fertile ground!….you will soon know the difference!
A General Election year does make the ground more fertile, there is more interest than normal in Politics, even if it’s the ‘whats in it for me kind’.
But that’s okay, we all have different needs that are not being met so we need to meet people at their point of need, not our own.
Everybody knows the problems they have, what they need is a way out…..it won’t be instant but the road out of this so called Union is a start and gives hope.
For some Parties however, the first blush is waning. The veil is dropping and people are voting with their feet.
Is this good for the fertile ground of Independence? Only time will tell, but public spats won’t help!
So, let’s be positive and sow the seeds.
