Alistair Darling was in the Capital warning that David Cameron and his Tory party posed risk to the very future of Scotland.

The SNP are a greater risk!

Does anyone really believe what the "puppet" Chancellor says anymore? And more importantly does anyone really care what the "puppet" Chancellor says anymore? This approach of making the other party out to be the bad guys is a good way of keeping the attention off your own lack of Policy, Idea's and Initiative. Except of course the ones that are put forward to capture headlines and then never do anything positive for real people. Article should read, "Darling makes last visit before seeking new employment"

This is the man who was party to the Knighting of Fred Goodwin for his services to banking. Wow, we really must absorb his every word.

A wannabe Englishman telling Scots that Cameron would be bad for them? And Labour have been so good? Why oh why do people in Scotland vote for English parties? It's been proved many times that Scotland can survive alone, so why do we have to listen to this claptrap? Cue the brainless!

I take it from comments you're an SNP voter? The SNP say they want independence for this country with them the ruling party. This lot couldn't run a council let alone a country, in fact they couldn't run a bath without getting wrong.

The country has 800 billion of debt and growing, that's reality under a labour government, the poor have got poorer, that's reality under a labour government, as the rich have got richer under a labour government that's reality Allistair.

The Chancellor's clearly a popular chap.

A musical couple have recorded an album of funeral songs, which prompted a few suggestions for their follow-up CD.

"(I Can't Get No) Putrefaction" "You're The Cream In My Coffin" "The Long and Winding Sheet" "Bury Me Bill" "Top Hat and Nails" "Jack in a Box" "Papa's Got A Brand New Hearse" and, of course "Staying Alive"

Yes well, moving on. . . On a cheerier note, Edinburgh Zoo is soon to be home to a pair of sun bears, which somehow led to this...

Instead of "normal" animals being sent to the zoo, could we have some with psychological defects? In particular, I'm thinking of bi-polar bears.

Bullemia, though you don't normally see bulls at the zoo. Or at least not the zoos I have been to.
