This is what happens when Tam Dalyell's West Lothian question gets answered. Possibly best if it hadn't been asked in the first place!

We voted to stay in the union. That means Westminster MPs North of the border. But the falling over each other of party leaders to court us means Scottish MPs will be able to influence English affairs but the opposite doesn't really apply.

A dogs dinner really. Not sure of the answers but a Labour majority is the least damaging outcome. So long as Ed Balls can balance fiscal prosperity with social inequality and do a better job than Osborn in addressing the one with the other.

But don't look up here for answers. This lot of jokers with good intention relied on oil to realise their dreams. Just as the price plummeted and unemployment in Aberdeen started rising.....
