    Oh my God !!
    Scotland does not know how close it came to disaster.  This has appeared today and if the most hardened Scottish Nationalist voter had seen this, they would have surely thought twice about voting Yes.

    What? Is he killing that cat?
    If I were dead, could I do this?

    No, he's going to batter and deep fry it, alive, in the time honoured Scottish way.
    Many Mars Bars have perished in similar circumstances.

    Does it somehow reflect a theat to the throne?

    Fortunately not. A majority of enlightened Scottish people decided they liked Queen Liz and not some Jacobite Bavarian Duke.

    Apparently, not many more than don't.

    But I still don't understand the cat imagery.

    I am assuming that you are not a fan of the James Bond film franchise? Evil criminal mastermind intent on taking over the world? Apparently, Holyrood is his evil lair.
    Perhaps if this image was Mike Myers or Austin Powers based it would make more sense ?

    It would not.

    As a child, I watched many of the James Bond films, but I don't remember an evil cat. I must admit, I was a greater fan of the music than of the stories. I didn't realize that Scotland's plans were so nefarious and broad in scope. How intriguing! I hope they have a good theme song.

    I thought it was time for a demonstration of how the union between our fine countries works; when we all pull together, and support each other, our tenacious warrior spirt allows us to punch well above our weight.  It allows us to prevail against seemingly overwhelming odds; to triumph where others would falter and fall. I give you:
    Zulu.
