Today I read this article which quotes an SNP spokesman:
"Buckling" seems a bit emotive... I'm not sure that Famous Grouse sales are particularly vital to the UK economy, but there y'go!
It got me to thinking... every time I read something from an SNP spokesperson or indeed Mr Salmond himself, they put themselves across as far-right loonies, frothing at the maw and ignoring any bigger issues or logic. Media spin notwithstanding, of course
Can any of our Scottish members, or indeed non-Scottish members living north of the border, tell me if that is a commonly-held view up in Albion, or are they viewed as a fairly normal sort of group?
I welcome the fact that the Treasury has buckled in the face of the outcry from the whisky industry and the SNP over the last 48 hours.
