I REALLY can’t understand why Nicola Sturgeon is so paranoid re the Scottish Referendum.

It’s as though she can’t take it on board, like the Brexit vote — they lost by the will of the people. It must be respected like the Brexit vote. Does she think money grows on trees? It’s quite easy to spend someone else’s money i.e. ours the public, so why not foot the costs themselves?

It’s not long since the Scottish people made their decision to stay within the UK and personally I was proud of them and think if they had another referendum the outcome would be the same at a cost to the public purse, but again no one would scrutinise it.

And I fail to understand how the Scottish people can have so many MPs with only 1.5 million votes behind them as against UKIP’s 4 million and they only have one MP and now he’s gone.

There has got to be something wrong there, or maybe it’s me, but 4 million I really do think Nigel should be knighted but time will tell.
