NaBloPoMo #4

Bit of an odd situation in the Westminster Parliament today, with a new Speaker being elected. It is Sir Lindsay Hoyle, who has been a deputy for 9 years or so. The oddness is about the fact that the House of Commons will be dissolved tomorrow ahead of the General Election on December 12th. So the news is now all about party political posturing. That's bad enough, but in Scotland, they're once more talking about an independence referendum. The Conservatives have said they'll never grant a Section 30 order, which would allow a poll on independence, but Labour would. Big mistake, in my opinion. I remain opposed to Scottish independence.
