I've just seen the statement from Stilly River Sage about race equality and colonialism and I can only say Amen. The sooner the people of this world realise that we are all the one sentient emotive species, and the sooner that racism, sexism, homophobia, travellerphobia, islamophobia, and all the other 'isms and 'obias are rendered totally redundant, the happier I will be.

As Auld Hamish put it:

"Nae mair will our bonnie callants
Merch tae war whan our braggarts crousely craw
Nor wee weans frae pitheid an clachan
Murn the ships sailin doun the Broomielaw
Broken faimilies in launs we've hairriet
Will curse 'Scotlan the Brave' nae mair, nae mair
Black an white ane-til-ither mairriet
Mak the vile barracks o thair maisters bare"
