We've come to the end of a week when many Scots, and indeed Brit citizens, prob didn't notice a momentous change in democracy in this country. The Electoral Commission has been taken over by the Brit govt and handed to Michael Gove to have full authority over its operation. Note the EC was the "independent" body responsible for the integrity of elections and referenda incl spending and the legitimacy of results. Gove will decide if the rules have been broken and what penalties, if any, ought to be imposed. From now on, the EC will have to respect "the priorities of the Brit govt in matters of elections and referenda"!!!!!!! Note the reference to "referenda". Also note the fitting words of Joseph Stalin who said all these years ago, "It's not who votes that counts. It's who counts the votes" - how helpful a quote that is!! DEMOCRACY IN THE UK IS NOW OFFICIALLY DEAD!!! 
The biggest eyeopener in Scotland was the fact that this outrageous violence against the constitution didn't even make headline news on the likes of BBC Scotland News - not a bit of it and still obsessed over ferries and ferry construction contracts!!! Sadly, for them, their pandering aint working as it looks like these Tory scum bags intend to abolish the licence fee at some point. It's a shame, as many BBC offerings are laudable, but they have allowed the brand to be incurably damaged by the antics of BBC Scottish News. So while democracy was dying, what were Tory MPs doing?? Not much apart from one moron watching porn on his mobile phone in the HoS debating chamber. One wonders where the next constitutional assault will come from these paranoid unionist conspirators eh??? Will it be in the form of Lord Foulkes proposed new parliamentary bill that will try to stop any attempt by a Scot govt to have an indy referendum??? And stipulating sovereignty and absolute power to the Brit govt. I wonder how my fellow Scots on this board view such a development to violate our sovereign rights as citizens of a sovereign country called Scotland??? You must be alarmed by this development as much as I am!!? This is surely just plain wrong, absolutely outrageous!!! Do we move our fight to an international court or take it directly to the United Nations. OR as we were forced into this sham of a union by a majority vote in the Scot Parliament, can we vote to dissolve this union altogether? My last point is, "It will only be a barrier if the SNP let it become one"!!
