Wee Jimmy and ‘indyref2’
Regulars on IsAC will know that I’ve got a great affection for Scotland, and for the Scots in general (which is a good job, as I’m married to one!). My comment is qualified by use of the term ‘in general’, because when it comes to taking or leaving something, I can most surely leave the SNP, and in particular its mumping chief mouthpiece, Nicola ‘Wee Jimmy Krankie’ Sturgeon.
In all conscience I cannot therefore quote St. Margaret of Grantham and say ‘rejoice! rejoice!’ on learning that Wee Jimmy has delivered forth yet another pronouncement on the subject of a second referendum on Scottish independence. In an article in ‘The National’ (Scotland’s answer to the ‘Volkischer Beobachter’), The Dear Leader has stated that an ‘indyref2 update’ will be made when MSPs return to Holyrood after the Easter recess. Heck, I can hardly contain my apathy; ‘hod me back’, as the missus would say.
No doubt like most of Nick Nick’s utterances, this one will be made through those now familiar mean, pinched little lips, the demeanour as ever one of petulance and tested patience, the expression as sour as a baby sucking on a very bitter lemon. Wee Jimmy Krankie with a poker up her arse, one who cannot acknowledge with grace the fact that the Scots have already voted on the proposal, and turned it down. Like Remoaners, she and her ilk now want another ‘peoples’ vote’, aka a ‘losers’ vote’.
Sturgeon is the broken record of British politics, an angry wasp buzzing around inside a jam jar; and yet at the same time, evincing an air of smug triumphalism which comes from the absolute certainty in the justice of The Cause.
Independence may come at some point or it may never come, but one thing is certain. Wee Jimmy will continue to peddle her agenda of grudge and grievance for as long as there are ears to hear. Just dae us a favour and gie it a fuckin’ rest. Plum Wodehouse once wrote ‘it is never difficult to distinguish between a Scotsman with a grievance and a ray of sunshine’. Many a true word is spoken in jest, and never was that more true than in the case of Nicola Sturgeon, Scotland’s First Gurner.
