That was the Week that Was

The post referendum week - already it sounds like the Vow is being broken, we have signed a deal for a warship, a hotel in Edinburgh's sale has gone ahead - it was waiting for a No vote !

And we have benefit freezes and cuts - funnily enough affecting the lower end of income scale - its not affecting the "tax breaks" the term used for "benefits" to the higher end of the income scale.  And we are possibly becoming embroiled in further Middle East issues. That region is in huge turmoil and I hope families there can return to peace and stability but the question is how on earth can that be achieved.  The worldwide forces that sell arms for oil etc. are possibly greater than any government is now capable of dealing with, except perhaps the superpowers.

And then we have indiscretion from our highly educated PM, of the sort that is very surprising.

And now to round it off a series of astonishing comments from the Tory party conference ... astonishing if true and now making me think they may well be aimed to be deliberately antagonistic - could they by chance be aiming to divide Scotland ..... could the "indiscretion" perhaps also be trying to sow the seed of discord ?

We really need to be careful and we need to work together for a better future for Scotland and decide what powers we really want. Any comments about what to focus on ?
