Putin's No.1 target outside Ukraine

[Corky Smeek]

Whilst BBC Scotland and the other media outlets concentrate on the fans of the ugly sisters of Scottish football lobbing bottles at each other something much more important has been going on. It's not their endless obsession with "Ferrygate" or that a royal bairn is 7 years old today. It's not even "Partygate" or what happens when you get unexpected results when searching for tractors on your phone. No, it's far, far more important than any of that yet there has been next to nothing about it in the MSM.

You see Scotland, and Faslane in particular, will currently be gaining prominence the minds of President Putin and his generals. The reason is that Nato's nuclear powers - USA, France and UK - have all begun assembling nuclear submarines at the base on the Gare Loch making it a vital strategic target in the event of an escalation of hostilities.

This gathering is not for military exercises but is instead, a direct response to Putin's attack on Ukraine and his threats to Nato members.

The number of questions raised by this deployment is vast. Two that concern me are; why are our news media not covering this and, why have the people of Scotland been put in harm's way without any word or explantion by HMG. I wonder if, in some small part at least, it has anything to do with impending elections and a possible future IndyRef.
