Had this weird dream involving Eric Idle, rollerblading nuns and some morris dancers.
Oh, wait a minute…..

Local people foiled yesterday’s attempt by immigration enforcers; next time they will come at night in an unmarked van. We have no chance of improving the immigration system in what you call “this country”, meaning the UK. When Scotland becomes independent, we will be able to have our own immigration policy, which will be fair, just and compassionate, in line with Christian values, and with the views of most Scottish people. Don’t you agree?

No, I don’t agree. I think that the current policy is unjust and unfair and is just as unjust if it is applied in Carlisle as in Glasgow. The whole country needs a better system, not just Scotland.
I find the idea of a country set up on “Christian” values quite chilling.
If we do have a new country, it needs to have a secular constitution not a Christian one.

However, the people south of Carlisle have already indicated what sort of government they want and it is very different to what the majority of Scottish people consistently vote for. The only way we will get a fairer system is in an independent Scotland with your secular constitution.

We have no idea what the immigration policy of a Tory government would be in an independent Scotland.

On the contrary, us folk south of Carlisle have been saddled with a government the majority of us don’t like by the defects of our electoral system and the machinations of a far-right anti-EU obsessive so-called politician.

thank you Kelvin for your comments. The scenes were heartening, that a community valued the men and were determined that they should be treated fairly and heard from. Gave me a little glimmer of hope, but then thats Scotland, here in Blue heaven, may not go that way, I am 84 now and have never felt so despondent, maybe the lockdown, I am not confident so a real ray of light from Pollockshields

Hurrah for Pollokshields. We need more of that sort of thing- all over the UK.

di-dah-dah-di-dah-dit
A new morse code abbreviation has just been announced – in case you need to know, the @ symbol was lacking a morse abbreviation, and of course it is being used much more often these days for e-mail addresses. If you need to know, the new abbreviation is di-dah-dah-di-dah-dit which is the letters A and…

School security
Following the Soham murder trial at the Old Bailey, it has been reported that the convicted man had previously been known to police. Questions are being raised about how such a person should have been put in a position of trust in a school environment. I'm not at all surprised that such a thing could…

Experimental worship
I wonder whether this area could sustain an experimental worship event every couple of months. I'm impressed by some of the things that I see on the web. It would be good to have some kind of worship service which was free from the constriction of a Sunday morning congregation and which was created from…
