    Here's an example of a bit of fire coming off a little plane crash (Shoreham air show)...

    2BA274E900000578-3210470-image-a-2_14405

     

    Now imagine a big, big, plane, full of lots of fuel, flying several hundred miles an hour faster. Do folk think the plane is going to bounce off the building with a crumpled nose? 

    Since that other boy on the Scottish sovereign thread appeared he has shown me my obsession is unhealthy and if I carry on I will be a full on tin foil hat wearing, cat food eating loon.

    Scottish Sovereign

    Declaration of Arbroath The Declaration made a number of rhetorical points: that Scotland had always been independent, indeed for longer than England; that Edward I of England had unjustly attacked Scotland and perpetrated atrocities; that Robert the Bruce had delivered the Scottish nation from this peril; and, most controversially, that the independence of Scotland was the prerogative of the Scottish people, rather than the King of Scots. In fact it stated that the nobility would choose someone else to be king if Bruce proved to be unfit in maintaining Scotland's independence. Some have interpreted this last point as an early expression of 'popular sovereignty' – that government is contractual and that kings can be chosen by the community rather than by God alone.

    A Claim of Right for Scotland was a document crafted by the Campaign for a Scottish Assembly in 1988, declaring the sovereignty of the Scottish people. It was signed by all then-serving Labour and Liberal Democrat MPs, with the exception of Tam Dalyell (Labour), a strident opponent of devolution. The list of signatories included several MPs who would later attain high office, including future prime minister Gordon Brown, future chancellor Alistair Darling, and future leaders of the Liberal Democrats Charlie Kennedy and Menzies Campbell.

    The Claim of Right reads- We, gathered as the Scottish Constitutional Convention, do hereby acknowledge the sovereign right of the Scottish people to determine the form of Government best suited to their needs, and do hereby declare and pledge that in all our actions and deliberations their interests shall be paramount. We further declare and pledge that our actions and deliberations shall be directed to the following ends: To agree a scheme for an Assembly or Parliament for Scotland; To mobilize Scottish opinion and ensure the approval of the Scottish people for that scheme; and To assert the right of the Scottish people to secure implementation of that scheme.

    The argument was based upon the terms of Article 18 of the Treaty of Union, the terms of which are familiar to historians, legal academics and commentators and to the courts which have considered its import on a number of occasions. The Article reads as follows: “That the Laws concerning Regulation of Trade, Customs and such Excises to which Scotland is by virtue of this Treaty to be lyable be the same in Scotland from and after the Union as in England, and that all other Lawes in use within the Kingdom of Scotland do after the Union and notwithstanding thereof remain the same as before (except such as are contrary to or inconsistent with this Treaty) but alterable by the Parliament of Great Britain With this difference betwixt the laws concerning publick Right, Policy and Civil Government and those which concern private Right That the Laws which concern publick Right Policy and Civil Government may be made the same throughout the whole United Kingdom but that no alteration be made in Laws which concern private Right except for the evident utility of the subjects within Scotland.” <----

    In parliamentary systems of government, primary legislation and secondary legislation, also referred to as delegated legislation, are two forms of law, created respectively by the legislative and executive branches of government. The executive branch is commonly known as His/her Majesty's Government (HMG). It is led by the Prime Minister and the Cabinet and is made up of a collection of about a hundred ministers who carry out the laws made by Parliament and who run the government and the country day-to-day. The judicial branch enforces the law.
    Primary legislation is law made by the legislative branch of government. This contrasts with secondary legislation, which is usually made by the executive branch. Secondary (or delegated) legislation must be authorized by primary legislation, and conform to boundaries it has laid down.

    Secondary legislation (also referred to as delegated legislation) is law made by an executive authority under powers delegated from by an enactment of primary legislation, which grants the executive agency power to implement and administer the requirements of that primary legislation. The power to pass delegated legislation is defined and limited by the primary legislation that delated those powers; if the subordinate authority acts beyond its remit, its acts will be invalid or ultra vires. <----

    Forms of secondary legislation in the United Kingdom include: Statutory instruments – made in a variety of forms, most commonly Orders in Council, regulations, rules and orders. The form to be adopted is usually set out in the enabling Act.

    US Senate Resolution 155 of 10 November 1997 states that the Declaration of Arbroath, the Scottish Declaration of Independence, was signed on April 6, 1320 and the American Declaration of Independence was modeled on that inspirational document.
    RESOLUTION
    Designating April 6 of each year as ``National Tartan Day to recognize the outstanding achievements and contributions made by Scottish Americans to the United States.
    Whereas April 6 has a special significance for all Americans, and especially those Americans of Scottish descent, because the Declaration of Arbroath, the Scottish Declaration of Independence, was signed on April 6, 1320 and the American Declaration of Independence was modeled on that inspirational document;
    Whereas this resolution honors the major role that Scottish Americans played in the founding of this Nation, such as the fact that almost half of the signers of the Declaration of Independence were of Scottish descent, the Governors in 9 of the original 13 States were of Scottish ancestry,Scottish Americans successfully helped shape this country in its formative years and guide this Nation through its most troubled times;
    Whereas this resolution recognizes the monumental achievements and invaluable contributions made by Scottish Americans that have led to America's preeminence in the fields of science, technology, medicine, government, politics, economics, architecture, literature, media, and visual and performing arts;
    Whereas this resolution commends the more than 200 organizations throughout the United States that honor Scottish heritage, tradition, and culture,representing the hundreds of thousands of Americans of Scottish descent, residing in every State, who already have made the observance of Tartan Day on April 6 a success;
    Whereas These numerous individuals, clans, societies, clubs, and fraternal organizations do not let the great contributions of the Scottish people go unnoticed: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the Senate designates April 6 of each year as ``National Tartan Day.

    Before someone starts shouting then how come none of the stuff has worked or been documented of a sovereign winning their cases. It's so simple you will feel stupid but hey you are not legally trained and i will not hold that against you. There is such a thing called LEGAL PRECEDENT. Cases usually get thrown out if it contradicts statutory law as it would create a legal precedent and the case itself is against you, the accused/defendant you are not there to win anything.

    Scots have always been free that is the point. You could say we invented the very notion of independence and individual sovereignty and the right to self determination. Ignorance of the law excuses no one. Doesn't matter that we have factual evidence that cannot be denied of why Scots are Sovereign, if enough people believe it to be a lie it becomes the truth by default.

    YAY a worse poster than me.

    There was never any report that the fuel was melted it was just weakened from the explosion and the ensuing fires. I hate the conspiracy theorists assumption that because the twin towers were the first buildings ever to fall from fire damage that this means they must have been planted with explosives, they were also the first skyscrapers to ever be hit by a boring 747 at 600 mph!

    The pentagon is the one that I can't get my head around as it really doesn't look like it was hit by a plane but again this doesn't necessarily mean the government covered up a false flag operation, plus there would be thousands of people who would be able to see this at any given time so why risk hitting it with a cruise misfile when someone could catch the video on tape when you can just crash a plane into it if you clearly have no problem doing that? It just doesn't add up.

    It wasn't a 747 it was a 767 which is smaller but that's not important how did an plane made of thin sheets of aluminium get through a building made of steel and concrete. You can see the nose of one of the planes appear on the far side of the building meaning it would have cut the central support column. The lack of air plane debris on the ground is also strange as if you look at any crash ever these things get shredded to bits. You would expect parts of the wings or tail section to fall away at least.

    Me? Probably would, then again I'm not secret service.

    If I was trained to keep my head in stressful situations then I reckon I would yes, that's his exact job, not sure quite how you're struggling to comprehend that.

    Aye, and? Like no government has ever bought a dodgy product because it's cheap.

     

    Who said it was the cheapest? Motorola radios aren't anywhere near the cheapest on the market.

     

    Your assuming the guy is a Jason Bourne type agent and not a guy who inputs data into a computer. Doesn't matter the training human emotions will take over.

    A secret service guy was keeping his head in a stressful situation? Fucking hopefully.


    Dodgy comms system? Nae shocks there.

     

     

    If a skyscraper was burning as bad as they said it was above your head would you not be a little shaken? Would you give an interview? Seeing everyone else run and your ment to stay would put the fear of God into anyone secret service or not. 

    The Motorola radios were faulty but the city still spent a few million on these despite knowing that they weren't up to the job.

    Well all that is nonsense tbh. I remember the first time i saw WTC 7's collapse and i couldn't believe what i was seeing and that i hadn't seen it before!

    These a video of a guy who was running in and out of WTC shortly before the collapse and the secret service guy guarding an entrance  looked very calm despite the supposed raging inferno above him. 9-11 hotel was a good documentary more of the hotel was left standing than WTC7 the  2 buildings falling directly on top of it.

    Definitely - i was obsessed about it all for a good while though, one of those things that i just looked up when bored one day when i should have been doing something else that ended up taking over my life.

    I'm in that place now. I've seen some funny conspiracy's such as the hologram planes.

    Are you suggesting that a plane didn't fly into the building?

     

    I think either the planes were rigged to explode on impact or the buildings blew as the plane impacted or both. The top of one was the towers was shut for the weekend before the came down. Explosions were heard in the basement floors. There is also a controversy about the radio sets that FDNY used as it was reported long before the attack they did not work but they were never replaced.

  9. Aye, it's looking increasingly likely I'll be putting a claim in. It's still sat at the same angle it was last night. I'll be going through the 'ambulance chasers' rather than the unions, I was informed two boys (one of whom has a permanent crooked finger tip now) had to wait 2 years + for their settlements, whilst one who lost 10% of his payout was nowhere near that time through one of the injury claims firms.

    I'm in at the doctor just after 3.

    Use digby brown they let you keep 100% of the payout.

  10. A few weeks back I got my finger caught between a 60kg cutting bar and a rotary blade, spent 3 hours in A&E. The finger healed quite well but wasn't 'straight'.

    I've just finished backshift and whilst taking my socks off (!!) the top bent an unusual amount forward, there was a loud crunching noise and now my finger tip won't straighten past about a 45 degree angle. It isn't sore now but I'm actually quite scared I've totally fucked it.

    I'm on early tomorrow too so hospital is a no go at this point.

    Sake.

    Get a claim in.

  11. Currently in a queue for the barbers and it's a single uber-chatty wifey giving the holiday chat. Not looking forward to this...

    Eta top tip: when folk are talking about depressing things in an otherwise quiet room, don't chuckle at funny things as you sit in the background on your phone.

    You should never let a woman cut your hair. They are all shit at it.
