CAN someone please explain to our supposedly intelligent – or is it sycophantic – BBC journalists and media that Scotland has only had ONE Queen Elizabeth?
Ian Murray, Labour’s only MP in Scotland, also seems unable to grasp the fact that there has only ever been one Queen Elizabeth in Scotland.

As a matter of interest and to illustrate my point, the Royal and Ancient Golf Club in St Andrews wanted to put a stained glass window in, I think for the millennium.
Some members were concerned about inserting the II, so I believe they consulted Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace.
There was no problem with plain ER, as seen in this photo I took of it.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
