Anyway i'm off out now, gotta help some Russian friends move into a council flat, that's okay though, cos they are white, well sort of....
And there, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, is raggatwin in a nutshell.

Accusations of racism if you don't agree with his opinions.

As I said, easy to pontificate on the effects of mass immigration on the indigenous population (how racist) from the relative comfort of your well-furnished council flat.

You've got a lot of time to spend on the internet, are you a member of the landed gentry?

Most of the hospitable areas are full; i.e., what isn't forest, or farmland. Although we could always house them in tents, on the higher peaks of the Cairngorms. They'd soon go running back to where they came from, then.

No, I meant 'hospitable'. The weather is something else, up here, in our hills. :wink:

Most of what is left of the forests are on higher ground - not areas you would want to build any settlements.

No, it's what this map tells me. If it's suitable for agriculture, then it's also suitable for building houses on. However, we need that farmland - even more so, if Mr Salmond gets his way. You could maybe get away with a little urban expansion, along the M8 corridor; Though, that area is full of old mine workings, and other possibly unsuitable brownfield areas.

It's called multi-tasking, dear. Just like when you have to check nobody's robbed you whilst you're teaching.
