Johnny McNeill – ex British Army Sgt Major with 25 years served with operational tours of Iraq and Bosnia. And self-published author of ‘Gaslighting Gilligan‘ (© 2017 – free download – released via Berlin on 25th June 2017).

Earlier this week on Facebook I saw the stunning photo below and the accompanying, equally brilliant poem. I found them patriotically stirring and spiritually inspiring and as such, I simply felt that Neil’s image and words were deserving of another audience. So it’s with confirmation and kind permission that I present to you:
‘The Thistle’s Pride’ by Neil Wilks of Cumnock

Amid the glen where the wild winds sing,
The thistle stands, a thorn-clad king.
With purple crown and steadfast might,
It guards the hills in morning light.
💙
Born of earth both harsh and grand,
It thrives within a rugged land.
Through storm and frost, through sun and rain,
The thistle blooms, defying pain.
💜
Symbol of strength, of hearts to true,
It waves where skies are painted blue.
A sentinel o’er loch and shore,
The thistle whispers tales of yore.
💚
Of Wallace bold and battles won,
Of freedom’s cry beneath the sun.
Through ages past, it held its ground,
A nations pride in bloom is found.
💙
So hail the thistle, fierce and free,
The soul of Scotland’s history.
Its stubborn roots, its fearless spire,
A bloom of hope, a spark of fire.

“All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident”. Schopenhauer
Having failed to get NATO into war with Russia in Ukraine or into war with Iran in order to trigger a UK ‘National Emergency’ via Faslane in oil-rich Scotland, the British-American establishment are trying to foment ‘UK’ civil unrest from within.
The aim of this is to ‘justify’ their preplanned ‘OPERATION YELLOWHAMMER’ Hard Brexit militarisation plans, which will also enable the Anglo-American corporate-political cartel and their oligarch media to blame the Scots, Welsh, Irish and indeed the English working classes; thereby using the civil unrest they’ve engineered by gaslighting the masses – as their own manufactured pretext to put us all back down…
