I get “spiky” on For A’ That podcast

By | Thu 4th April 2013 - 8:43 am

On Saturday I took part in the For A’ That podcast in Scotland along with regulars Andrew Tickell and Michael Greenwell and fellow guest Green (and former Liberal Democrat) Douglas McLellan. It’s not all about Scottish stuff. We had quite a long conversation at the beginning about immigration and Nick Clegg’s speech in particular.

 

 

Spiky, Andrew?  I think maybe spirited is more appropriate. I certainly wasn’t cross or heated and was quite enjoying chewing the fat from my kitchen table. I had a couple of good rants at the SNP and its various failures. I think I might have called Alex Salmond’s posturing on childcare “crude” and “cynical”. Which it is.

Anyway, I’ll leave you to judge whether I’m turning into a cactus. I was fair chuffed with one of the comments left at Andrew’s blog:

Yes excellent stuff – I thought Caron made the strongest case I have heard so far for the coalition – am not at all convinced, but a bonny fechter.
