Apart from Salmon(d) and Sturgeon, the latter boldly proclaiming that (Mother Theresa) May's calling of an election meant that "[her] attempt to block our mandate to hold another referendum when the time is right will crumble to dust", the polls in Scotland suggest that the fishing nets of reality may be catching up with the Scottish Nationalists.

On Monday Sturgeon proclaimed that the election would not decide whether Scotland becomes independent; rather it was about standing up to the Tories (led by that wicked, wicked lesbian Ruth Davidson who is so wicked she can't see that lesbians should only support "progressive" political parties but who seems to be helping the Tories win possibly seven to ten seats for Scottish electorates at Westminster (currently they have none)). Then on Tuesday Sturgeon cancelled the address she was to give to the Scottish parliament on the next steps towards getting a second referendum (postponed until after the election says a spokesperson).
