Alex Salmond's game plan

To play the English question for all it is worth - to the SNP.

Another article from the Observer.

Warms your heart to see we English are so useful to ambitious Scottish politicians, of all parties.

Alex Salmond's English observation.

Over at The Scotsman, Alex Salmond makes a point that most English MPs bend over backwards to avoid: http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/index.cfm?id=547502007

He said "I think a lot of people in England can see the advantages of being able to decide on things like foundation hospitals or top-up fees without being bossed around by Scottish Labour MPs, who seem intent on forcing unwanted policies down the throats of the people of England."

Well now, it might be constructive if some English MPs came to the same conclusion sooner rather than later. If you have a minute read some of the comments on this article - very enlightening about the electoral prospects of Labour in Scotland.
