It should not be long until the Scottish Government comes to its decisions about how to move forward on Equal Marriage in Scotland.
Two members of St Mary’s, Jaye and Ruth Richards-Hill had a good (and surprisingly long) interview on BBC Radio Scotland yesterday.

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.
I've added a section to the site called 100 Things About Me. It can be found in the new menu on the left. I'd be interested in anyone who has trouble accessing the menu as it is part of a new menu module that I added last night to the site. In case anyone is interested,…
Last night two of the churches in Bridge of Allan ceased to exist. Chalmers Church and Holy Trinity Church are no more. They came together in a Service of Union in the building formerly used as Holy Trinity yesterday evening – a service which I was surprised not to be invited to. Union seems to…
I never intended the colour scheme of this site to last as long. I just changed a very basic template from lime green and purple to the current blood and custard. It took me rather longer than I expected and the theme is far from finished. I may stay with the colours however, or at…
Kelvin: Operation completed successfully on Tuesday – no complications. I am in awe of the surgeon.Tilly: Sticky paws and a bad temper. She is in awe of the vet. [The bad temper is a sign of normality].
