You may or may not be aware that we had yet another General Election here in the UK yesterday.
One big winner of the night was Ruth Davidson, known to the tabloid press as the "kick-boxing lesbian Leader of the Scottish Conservatives". The main theme of her election campaign was about keeping Scotland part of the UK and saying no to a second independence referendum.
There are now thirteen Conservative MPs from Scotland (before the election it was just one) and without them Theresa May would not be able to form a government.
Ms Davidson is often pictured with her spaniel Wilson.
Who seems a cool sort of a guy.
Gail is wondering if the shredded document above contained the Scottish National Party's plans for #indyref2.
As for whither Brexit - don't even ask...
The world turned upside down.
ReplyDeleteI hope Gail is right and that was Wilsons answer LOL
ReplyDeleteSooooooo, was it Ms Ruth who won over the Scottish electorate or, as I finks is more likely, Wilson won over the peeps!

ReplyDeleteWell, to be picky, they can't form a government without the DUP of N.Ireland...the swing in Alba didn't help her out of the hole May dug for herself; and all I will add is that Ms D is NOT on my list of peeps to meet... Wilson, though, like your good self Bertie lad, being beyond pawlitix, would be welcome anytime! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
We are most certainly not Conservative supporters in this house. But then, as you know, neither are we supporters of Scottish independence!
Delete...oh yes I do... and I realise on re-reading that my response may have come across rather 'strongly', for which my sorry. Golly, though, the Father and I sat through the entire night and morning of it; who knew pawlitix could be so riveting?!! Yxx
DeleteHope this lady is a winner but who knows these days

Bertie - Perhaps you should go into politics. The whole map would have turned blue !
ReplyDeleteYesterday we had the British election interspersed with Comey/Trump all day.
ReplyDeleteWe think Wilson is adorable!
ReplyDeleteIf it's any political manifesto, Wilson has the right idea...

Our policy is to make an informed vote and then just stare into the eyes of a pup until it's all over. It's just better that way!
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
We can see why Wilson won! And wow, what a mom: the "kick-boxing lesbian Leader of the Scottish Conservatives".
ReplyDeleteWhat a time, eh? My mum has whiplash from following the Comey testimony and then the UK vote. Zowie.

Wilson is sure a handsome pup! We think all politicians are more trustworthy if they have a pup.
ReplyDelete"kick-boxing lesbian Leader of the Scottish Conservatives" I think perhaps political correctness terminology just went Trumpism.
