I was going for a loan deal on Nicola 0762 ....... (It is wrong, as many English say that the SNP has no policies other than independence. They did steal a lot of Labour's clothes, but the policies are real and Labour did deserve to have them stolen.)

Jeremy Corbyn is a decent man who has largely remained true to himself despite 40 years spent in a world of corruption and deceit, but he isn't a natural leader. Mr McDonnell is a much tougher man, but he too lacks charisma. (I also have thought David Millipede would reappear, but he'd have to be an MP to become leader I think. And there aren't any safe Labour seats. So if Jeremy falls on somebody's sword I'm afraid it might be Yvette Cooper next and she married Ed Balls!)

At lunchtime I heard Farage (pptttttaaaaahhh) almost repeating what I said about the EU bullying not negotiating. Interestingly I think I was almost quoting Yanis Varifakis the former Greek Finance Minister .....

By the way don't forget there's been a long history of rich "Scots" mostly of English extraction voting Tory and a tradition of deference has co-existed alongside Scotland's Socialist culture. It is no accident that the Royal family spend a third of their lives in Scotland. And they do change peoples' outlook just by being there.
