He promised to cut back last year and only claimed £250,000 this year. Jim Devine is awaiting sentence for fiddling even less. Perhaps if he bought a suit that fitted him with his expenses he may have fitted the New Labour image and would not have been made the sacrificial goat. Broon and Darling fiddled even more. Mind you, Broon could also do with a suit that fitted him. He looks as if he is still wearing Tony Blair’s claes. </p><p/></span></p><p/><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: "Arial", "sans-serif"; COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB"><p> </p></span></p><p/><p/><p/><p/><p/><p/><p/><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: "Arial", "sans-serif"; COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB">It was not the Nobles that ran Scotland for most of the last century, running us into the worst social problems in the EU, who describe us a third world country. It was the corrupt Labour Mps, Cooncillors and Tame Union Barons that shamelessly benefited from the London gravy train whilst the rest of the nation suffered. Glasgow has the cheapest Cooncillors that money can buy.<br/><br/>When the noble Earl of Mar led the 1715 Jacobite Rebellion against the Parliamentary, but not the Regal, Union, complaining that he did not get enough bribes for signing Scotland away in 1707. He earned his nickname, “Bobbing John“ for dithering and changing sides. Wait till you see the bargain basement Labourites jump ship when we get nearer to Independence. <p/></span></p><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"> </p><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: "Arial", "sans-serif"; COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB">The Nobles, who signed the Treaty in an Edinburgh cellar to avoid the angry “mob” outside, complained four years later and wanted to annul the Union. They were told to their faces that they were bought, to be laughed at every time they opened their Scotch mouths. Bobbing John actually won the Battle o’ Sherramuir in the ’15, but left the field allowing his troops to disperse whilst John Glass (Grey) of the Battles and a Campbell took Dunblane and Stirling in Mar’s absence, Glass led the move against the union four years earlier.<br/><br/>So who are modern Parcel o’ Pogues in this Nation? It is not the Tame Unions that will worry Westminster but the Union of 1707 come the next election. Who’s a’ up for it come the next election, whether is only one obvious choice to smash the Union and rid ourselves of the Nuclear occupation and cannon fodder recruiting sergeants? <p/></span></p><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="LINE-HEIGHT: 115%; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><p> </p></span></p><p/><p/><p/><p/><p/><p/><p/></div><div> </div><div align="center"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><font size="3"><font face="Arial, Geneva, sans-serif"><span><font size="3"><strong>THE PRICE OF FREEDOM</strong></font><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Marchmount:</strong> received £1,104-17s-7d</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Cromarty:</strong> received £300</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Lord Preston Hall:</strong> received £200</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Lord Ormiston:</strong> received £200</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Duke of Montrose:</strong> received £200</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Duke of Athol:</strong> received £1000</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Balcarres:</strong> received £500</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Dunmoor:</strong> received £200</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Lord Anstruther:</strong> received £300</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Mr. Stewart of Castle Stewart:</strong> received £300</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Eglington:</strong> received £200</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Lord Fraser:</strong> received £100</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Lord Cessnock, now Polwarth:</strong> received £50</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Mr. John Campbell:</strong> received £200</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Forfar:</strong> received £100</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Sir Kenneth MacKenzie:</strong> received £100</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Glencairn:</strong> received £100</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Kintore:</strong> received £200</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Findlator:</strong> received £100</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Lord Forbes:</strong> received £50</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>John Muir, Provost of Ayr:</strong> received £100</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Earl of Seafield, Lord Chancellor:</strong> £490</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Marquis of Tweedale</strong>: received £1000</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Duke of Roxburgh:</strong> received £500</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Lord Elibank:</strong> received £50</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Lord Banff:</strong> received £11-2/-</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Major Cunningham of Eckatt:</strong> received £100</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>The Messenger who brought the Treaty of Union:</strong> received £60</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Sir William Sharp:</strong> received £300</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Patrick Coultrain, Provost of Wigton:</strong> received £25</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Mr. Alexander Wedderburn:</strong> received £75</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>The Commisioner for Equippage & Daily Allowance</strong>: received £12,325</font></p><p align="center"> </p><p align="center"><font size="3"><strong>Stated by THE EARL OF GLASGOW, on oath, and by DAVID NAIRNE, Secretary Depute for Scotland.
