As for cliched, student thinking I am retired but take it as a compliment that you thought i was that young! Mind you, I suppose I have been a student of politics all of my life.....

You certainly jump to conclusions don't you-and jump so quickly you read what you want to read into what I said. Away and watch some tennis and calm down. Oh by the way I am a graduate. Of Glasgow University.
Let's stick to tennis shall we?

I think the SNP's support increases when there's a Tory government in Britain, Scotland never votes Tory but gets them as a government anyway hence the call for independence. As a Scot I would never vote SNP as I regard nationalism as dangerous. Having a love of one's country and being patriotic is one thing but nationalism is quite another. And of course the Blair/Brown right wing policies served to discredit the Labour Party so more votes for the SNP.

I voted for the SNP because of their policies in general and what they have delivered to make Scotland better, but independence is a separate issue and the majority of SNP supporters have the wit to see that it would be disastrous for Scotland.  Salmond is indeed a great political leader but he isn't going to be around forever, and quite frankly there's no other member of the SNP who comes anywhere near him.  With regard to nationalism, this is only dangerous if it gets out of control, and that is very unlikely to happen here.  In fact I'd go as far as to say that the Welsh Nats are more of a threat than the Scots.

Anyway it's rather sad to see this issue being discussed on a thread which should be focussed on Andy's incredible achievements.

Has it occurred to anyone that maybe andy is staying away because he feels him being there now would over shadow the achievements if the other athletes.  By doing it this way they will still have there parade and get the acknowledgement they deserve and andy goes where the heart is which is where he should be. Win Win if you ask me.

In no way would I every vote Tory. We have a Tory/Lib Dem Govt and Scotiand has only returned one Tory to Westminster. I think this should tell a lot about what people up here think. I am for a Federal UK with all countries having their own powers to rule. With those extra powers that are required I think Scotland would be happy. Westminster would make decisions about the army and foreign policy this I think would be a good solution. It seems to work well in Australia.
