Och aye!

I am getting heartily fed-up with Nicola Sturgeon and her almost daily bleats about a second independence referendum up in Scotland.  I appreciate that this is the core of the SNP's raison d'être and she has to keep the bandwagon rolling, else what is she and her party for, but surely she must realise how banging on about it all the time just alienates the rest of the UK - not to mention a fair few Scots I would suggest.  And she should remember that the Scottish Parliament is a devolved body which gets its authority from Westminster.  It therefore can only do what Westminster has said it can do - and independence (even a referendum on the subject) is not on the menu.
