NOW OPEN FOR BUSINESS!!!
(though the uncertainty may put you off)
With unfounded scare stories becoming a stock in trade for those opposed to Scottish independence I thought it might be time to open up a dedicated department store for the scaremongers and associated trades. Suggestions for new stock lines always welcome.

DeleteI paid a visit the other day just to have a look, to find that all the stock had been raided by the Yes men. As soon as I realised this, I turned around just in time to see Nicola Sturgeon making her way down the road with a massive wheelbarrow full of stock...
