IT'S ALL GETTING A BIT CHRIS GRAHAM

If YES had actually won the day The Peeppul would, at this very moment, be running boats full of guns from Germany, as they did the last time democracy went against them. As far as they are concerned, democracy means doing what they want and nothing else. They would have done everything they could to make sure an independent Scotland did not have an easy time; many of them were already planning to move their dole money to English banks and boycott anything and anyone that supported independence. Which is why I'm a bit worried about the 45ers proposing what amounts to their own version of Ze List. We're better than they are in every way: more intelligent, more civilised and certainly better-looking, so why would we want to follow their example. The vote was NO so let's move on.

Not that I'm advocating giving up the fight; far from it. The ridiculous promises made by Gordon Brown are never going to work and there'll be a lot of angry NOers around this time next year when they realise how much they've been lied to. Apart from The Peeppul, of course, who can't stand even the devolution we've got at present. Another opportunity will soon present itself, so let's be patient and not let ourselves get dragged down to the level of The Peeppul.

As to the allegations of electoral fraud, I might be a bit of a trusting wee sowell, but I don't think there's anything in it. People from both sides are always there at the count and if there was anything untoward I don't think any of the YES camp would have been backward at coming forward about it. After all, there weren't too many shrinking violets involved! Strangely enough, quite a few of The Peeppul have been moaning on Facebook that the fire alarms in Dundee were in order to fiddle the vote in YES's favour! Again, let's not get dragged down to their level; we're better than that.

Over in McMurdoland the excuses have been coming thick and fast concerning the disgusting scenes in George Square on Friday. One clown thinks they were perfectly justified as he witnessed, on a day before the vote, a YES voter - gasp! - shouting at his friend, who was wearing a NO badge! My God, I hope the police are searching all the CCTV footage to find this individual. Never mind racist taunts, burning the saltire, beating up wee lassies etc, finding this criminal must be their top priority!

Anyway, the whole referendum was a con right from the start, according to McMurdo's disciples. The whole thing was all about destroying Rangers (sic) and deflecting attention away from the shady deals between Celtic and Glasgow Council! And, of course, none of The Peeppul actually voted YES; in fact, they didn't vote at all, hiding in their hooses, too scared of the big, bad YES campaigners (in reality, Irish Republican sympathisers) to venture outside. It didn't seem to stop them 'celebrating' on Friday, though, did it? But then, The Peeppul have previous for this kind of behaviour. I'm willing to bet that on V.E. Day they all came crawling out of the shipyards to celebrate 'their' victory!

It really is vomit-inducing to read some of the crap that gets posted on McMurdo's site. Apparently Britain cannot really be 'Great' Britain without the existence of the 'Quintessential British Team'. (Boak!) It's good to see that they've got their priorities right. The whole of Scotland can go to Hell in a handcart, just as long as their club is still around in some shape or form.

And what shape or form that will be is in serious doubt now that Laxey has increased its holding to become the biggest shareholder at the new club. Ashley didn't bother picking up the extra shares he was entitled to; he's already sitting pretty with the merchandise concession. So where does that leave Bisto FC now? A hedge-fund operator is hardly going to pump funds in so it's looking more and more likely that the game's a-bogey. It could well be that when the time comes to vote for independence again The Peeppul's rancid club will be no more! Let us pray...

"Okay, the time is ripe for us to take our message to Scotland. Er...does anybody know the words to The Sash?"
