Scotch denied Brave New World

[Rogerborg]

You might have missed this, but the Jocks were planning to make every single child a de facto ward of the state, regardless of whether there was any indication of a problem with their non-governmental geno-support unit (or "parents" as we used to be known).

Dear Leader Nicky knows what's best for you.

The Jockish courts gave it the thumbs up, but the Supremes in That London just knocked it back. Sadly, not on principle, but on a data sharing technicality.

One to keep an eye on. Plaid Commie always doubles down rather than backing down.

Does she tie her rivals to the barrel of mons meg and blow their innards all over Edinburgh yet Roger?

Or is she saving that for the Turkey style cull of opponents when she declares independence?

At this point I think it's just taking names, but I do genuinely think that an independent Scotchland would devolve into socialist despotism rather quickly. Fortunately, it's not that far to the border.

Having school age kids, it's quite eye opening seeing the diet of steady social engineering propaganda that they're being fed. It's a wonder that they have any time left for reading, riting and rithmetic.

Having listened to it on the radio there are arguments for and against but I can't see how you can get a teacher or someone to take on that responsibility. What happens if she 'fails' and something happens to the kid?

To use something that angers me intensely as an example. What happens if an immigrant family takes their daughter abroad to be mutilated (FGM). We can't even get prosecutions now even though it's been happening continuously for years. Do the parents (who should be done for child abuse IMO) get away with it but the watcher would get done because she didn't stop it?

Has there ever been a more Scottish name than that of the Education spokesman, Tavish Scott?

So if Scotland gain independence, who will save you from yourself?

Wasn't this going to cost $60M, or $7.5k per child?

Leftist parties can get away with spunking public monies on big projects.

Think it was a labour Govt who introduced the nuclear deterrent. The side benefits being jobs, and furthering technical development etc etc etc.

Similar arguments for big infrastructure type projects.

Cant really see any economic argument for the nanny scheme, ranks alongside state funded five a day co-ordinators etc.


I guess that by even asking if there is an economic argument, shows I don't understand the SNP socialist Utopian dream
