It’s good that so many unionists aren’t facing the reality of their plight.

England doesn’t care about them. Yes it does.
They are a minority in Scotland.  No evidence of this other than spoofing opinion polls.
Their electoral prospects are non-existent.  False.  We have a Conservative and Unionist majority.
Nothing they do or say shifts the polls in their favour.  Hardly anything of note has been said to be able to tell this.
Scandals at the top of the SNP don’t shift the polls in their favour.  Wouldn't expect them to.
A majority favour independence.  No evidence of this other than spoofing opinion polls.
A majority favour another referendum.  Not any time soon, and they won't get one anyway.
A majority believe it will happen.  Doesn't matter.
A majority believe that withholding a section 30 order is wrong.  Link?  Anyway, doesn't matter.
A majority trust Nicola Sturgeon.  This will be irrelevant soon.  She is 'toast'.
A majority believe Holyrood should make decisions on the economy and foreign affairs.  Link?  Anyway, doesn't matter.

I could continue with this list but I’ve probably made my point.

That post takes me back to watching Zorro on a Saturday morning. Pete hasn't just felt the tip of your sword there, it's positively shredded him.
