Oh dear, I have heard it all now, one of the comments after this article describes Sturgeon as the best politician since Ghandi. I hope they are joking or meant Fred Ghandi the local Councillor!

Newsthump's take on it:
We’re not going to call another referendum because we’ll f..g well lose it, SNP confirm

Newsthump said:
We’re not going to call another referendum because we’ll f*cking well lose it, SNP confirm

The SNP has confirmed another independence referendum will not be held in 2017 as they’d get their arses handed to them in a sack again.

The party, which claims anything from Brexit to a light fall of snow on the Kyle of Lochalsh is grounds for seeking approval for the dissolution of the Act of Union, pledged to threaten a referendum at the drop of a hat whilst not actually calling one for the foreseeable future.

Listing a bunch of reasons for not calling a referendum including Brexit, uncertainty, a willingness to engage and Saturn being in the inauspicious House of Capricorn, the party omitted the important detail that they’ve got nothin’ except empty bluster.

Experts have suggested the Brexit effect of the st hitting the fan just from breaking a 40-year union indicates the effect of breaking a 400-year one would be broadly similar to spraying high-pressure excrement at a 4,200 rpm turbofan engine.

Speaking from Holyrood, Nicola Sturgeon kept an admirably straight face for someone holding a pair of eights, a six, a nine and a copy of the rules of Gin Rummy.

“We reserve the right to threaten a referendum,” she told reporters. “Tories Westminster Out Of Touch Referendum.”

“Referendum,” she added.

In related news, Brexit campaigners still haven’t got round to explaining how they’ll end free movement over the Northern Irish border without fking the Good Friday Agreement into a cocked hat, and studiously avoid the question whenever it’s asked.

Doesn't matter, as long as the party faithful keep nodding their heads and banging their hands on the table at her overtures.

It's always somebody else's fault in nationalist land.

It looks like even the cybernats who usually run to defend their MPs and MSPs on Facebook are too embarrassed to comment on that post. Had to laugh at this:

"It's not parents bonding with babies they're after. It's parents bonding with the cult".

Ah well not wrong on that because from last night Snow was in the states where I assume he is the chief "anchor" there till after the inauguration. I genuinely don't have access to it but I imagine before the end they get Labour to comment is it Thornberry or are they just going straight for my love ?

Sturgeon looked shell shocked here.
Her bluff has been called. Put up or shut up time.
