According to last Sunday’s Sunday Times the Scottish Government have received £1.2 Billion from the UK Government to spend in Scotland dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic. Up to last Sunday the Scottish Government had spent only £600 million (50%).

It's actually scaring me how easily people want to be subdued and give up their freedoms......I honestly didn't think I lived in a country that would accept it.

I'm not on about closing pubs or the football and basic social distancing but the general stay at home, don't go out, don't see relatives an hour a day, don't sit down......It's so so so wrong.

I actually want to 'social distance' more than we're being advised to, I want to go out and camp in the middle of nowhere on my own with no more than probably ten other people within 20 or 30 miles of me - but I'm not allowed to because it's not safe and I could overwhelm the NHS. Seriously?

I can't park in a remote lay by and walk across the moors to a mountain that nobody in their right mind would want to climb up. Probably a seven hour walk during which I might see one or two other people with more than enough space for us to avoid each other if we really want to - but I'm not allowed to because it's not safe and I could overwhelm the NHS. Seriously?

Instead I'm supposed to sit at home? Well **** them all. I've put on a stone and a half already FFS, enough's enough I don't want to be a fat *******.......... again

It’s wee Nippies vision for the future, pubs will only be allowed to open on a Saturday night if they have a drag queen cabaret

Similar to you.

I'm keeping my distance from folk, more to be respectful of them more than fear of dying.

But I haven't been and won't be kept inside.

Ferry esplanade was busy but it was surreal to see the polis cruising up and down probably in case anyone dared sit Doon.

Then had a wee wander over at drumoig.

As soon as you refer to anyone by a derogatory name you show your colours toward that individual. For me your constant reference to Nicola Sturgeon as 'Nippy' or 'Wee Nippy' nullifies your opinion completely.

I continually refer to Boris Johnson as 'that ****wit' 'that moron' or in other derogatory terms and I accept that because of this some people will immediately ignore what I have to say about him; but it feels good to call the muppet names so I'll carry on doing it. Is this why you call Nicola Sturgeon 'Wee Nippy'? Is it to make you feel good?

Thats what she’s known as by the majority of Scots.

Just look at her face when she’s asked a question she doesn’t like.

Well named.

She’ll only do that if the UK gov picks up the tab.
