THE mere suggestion of Prince Edward prostituting himself as a puppet of BoJo is, for him and his wife, a humiliation. As the son of the Queen it should not even be considered that he or any heir to the throne could be trundled out in that way to “rescue” a failed Prime Minister from the desperate state he has put himself in. The reaction of the people of Scotland to such an insult to them is – or should be – a resounding “no” to the dangling of a puppet to interfere in an issue of such supreme importance.

AH, the cunning plan from the Downing Street bunker complex is to send Edward Windsor complete with household across the Rio Tweed, presumably to live in Holyrood Palace, and thus saving the Union. Well, if nothing else it does show that Johnson is working to a script. It may well be a Blackadder script but definitely a script!! Someone, somewhere at sometime thought that would be a good idea, and they are in government!

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
