Burning issue

Book burning has a long and dark history, and the three SNP councillors who filmed themselves burning their copies of the Smith Commission report should be ashamed of themselves.

Like most decent Scots, I want to live in a democratic 
country, a concept clearly not prescribed by these uncompromising zealots.

According to Unionists, the burning of an effigy of Alex Salmond at East Sussex was entertainment.

However, the same Anglo-centric Scots are now outraged and find it offensive that a few pages from a copy of the Smith Commission report are set alight by three councillors.

The pot calling the kettle black comes to mind.
