Ah so on top of your lie about UK BoP you now think Scotland providing 30% of UK Beef from 8.3% of the population is irrelevant. I actually feel sorry for you Kippers, you are doomed to either get what you don't want or get what you DO want and end up in penury.
But hey, keep making up numbers and lying about what you wait the previous day. I'm sure every Kipper will believe you. Shame they are already Kippers and aren't adding to your deranged mob.
Yes it is irrelevant. It's a single food product that you are cherry picking. That's like saying that the proportion of whisky that Scotland produces is equivalent to the proportion of all production in the UK.
Forget about beef that isn't even all meat let alone all food.
Yeah so irrelevant when I go to Sainsburys there is a whole aisle of Beef against a split isle for Pork and Lamb. But it isn't just Beef. Almost every quoted item was higher than the 8.3% population share.

As it is http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-business-28874563 ''Experts have published an action plan to tackle livestock declines and low profitability in the beef industry.'' Beef is the ''single biggest farming sector and makes up more than a quarter of Scottish agricultural output. That is why it is so essential that [Scottish] government, industry organisations and beef producers work together to overcome the challenges the sector is facing - which include declining livestock numbers and low profitability''

YouGov/Sun poll tonight: 3 point Tory lead, biggest since Jan '12. CON 35%, LAB 32%, UKIP 15%, LD 7% GN 6%. Genuine movement or just a blip?
That lot adds up to 95%. Do people think that might be a bit high?
Well since the SNP have been hovering around 4% of the UK figure it does seem to be yes. Although a lot more of what used to be others are now getting a name check.
Yougov summed to 5% for the rest yesterday - BNP was 2% in 2010, that should decline to pretty much 0. Also Respect and so forth won't really be picked up in a national poll.

Hey don't knock Japan. As a "major first world economy" they've managed to get about four times the per capita Debt that Greece has managed. That's pretty impressive they can do that before facing reality.
Britain is far more indebted than Greece but can probably do another trillion before it all goes pear shaped.

12% of the UK cereal crop 10% of the UK pig production 9% of the UK dairy herd 20% of the UK sheep production 30% of the UK Beef production 4% of the UK fruit and veg.

@MP_SE Housing is overvalued, and policy has been geared to keeping it that way. Ozzie gets proclaimed as a genius by many on here...but if you look closely at his economics, they vary little from the policies of Brown. Asset inflation and domestic consumption.
I await a party who says stop....this is madness....instead if Tories say 100,000 for a scheme, Labour says 200,000 and Lib Dem's says 300,000.
It's all meaningless, as there's currently a shortage of bricks and cement. Long lead times on both according to my friendly builder, particularly in the South East where many of the manufacturing plants have been mothballed or shut down
It;s been like that for the last year. Then chuck in skilled labour shortages.
A mate of mine who is an electrician was saying that they have a massive backlog of houses due to a shortage of cement. The brick shortage has got so bad that the company he works for has resorted to importing them from China but they also have no cement. Worse still cement manufacturing is basically dead because of carbon dioxide emissions during the production of cement.
It is a complete and utter joke. The demand for new housing is there but the basic raw materials are all in short supply. Even the labour shortage has begun to ease now that so many young people have done apprenticeships in the trades but builders are importing almost all of the basic building materials from timber to bricks and mortar.
There are always materials shortages in building booms. It tends to drive innovative systems. There is no particular excessive requirement for bricks or cement in building houses. On the other hand the decline in coal fired power stations will give shortages in fly ash for concrete.

Keep an eye on it though…
I wonder if we're starting to see 'Ed's crapness' showing through in 'certainty to vote' rather than VI - about as many people like the two parties, but Labour voters are less enthused at the prospect of their chap as PM (for which we have polling data aplenty.....), making them less 'certain to vote'.......
