Pissed off to see history repeat itself in Scotland - see the decades Ireland spent supporting useless careerist gravy train troughers before finally seeing through them in 1918!

Haven't been on here in ages but have had a few follows recently so thought I'd pop back on.

1st off my old account is banned off Twitter for contradicting the state line on Ukraine, was initially shadow banned then a supposed indy supporting lunatic/thicko complained because I had an anti-Nazi banner & they used that as an excuse to close my account.

However you can still find me there incognito at @R_MacGhilleAnd

So what's the crack, are folk leaving Twitter?

"Imagine, if you will, being trapped in a cage. It is a somewhat gilded cage, for a few. You are held prisoner by a jailer without a conscience, who cares a great deal about himself but very little about you.

In fact, you have always been in this cage. You were born in it and you have lived your whole life in it..."

"...There is only one trajectory now, & that’s the one that leads to independence...This will be the year when Scotland makes a new declaration of faith & belief in itself as a modern, progressive, outward-looking European nation..."

@arthurstramash @Loganlorenzo suppression of a people's history, culture and language is a standard technique of Colonialism. It happened in every country of the British Empire. I've travelled in many of these ex colonies and the anger of the near elimination of their histories and cultures and replacement by English history and culture is palpable. Scotland is one of the last of these colonies. #indyref2

@RogerAnderson Hague blocked me on twitter after I demolished his consumption model. I successfully argued that consumption is not uniform across the UK. Someone in the SE of England will use considerably less fuel,for transport & heating,than someone in the North of Scotland for instance. His argument that you take an average usage of food,fuel etc for each person then attribute 8.4%(Scotland's population)to Scotland was reduced to the crap that it is in an instant.

@TheBritishLie aye I was blocked too for not accepting the Holy faith. Doesn't help that I taught some Economics alongside History so don't accept any faith based nonsense re both & Hagues opinions are entirely driven by ignorance of one & ideological driven cognitive bias with regards to the other. He also got quite abusive towards Professor Murphy then blocked him.

"Hague et al are technicians.They take data they are given &process it.They do not question it..I regret to say that this shows remarkably little understanding of almost any aspect of accounting or economics.."

Personally I'd go further & say they're like a fundamentalist religious cult, GERS being their holy text that mustn't be questioned with all unbelievers who do question relentlessly attacked & pilloried. #GERSfundamentalism #GERSTaliban #TrueFaith

It’s time for GERS to go

If I presume my Twitter timeline to be a reflection of what is happening in some areas of debate, then dispute on the usefulness of the Scottish government’s GERS statement is raging again. GERS stands for Government Expenditure and Revenue Scotland. It is also the nickname of Rangers Football Club...
