KOFI ANNAN PRAISES SCOTS' POTENTIAL


Kofi Annan praises Scotland's potential

Kofi Annan 
Kofi Annan said Scotland had "great potential" for the future
Scotland can play a leading role in ending poverty and tackling climate change, according to former United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan.
He said Scotland was "a country with a great history in science, technology, research, economics and in business".
Too right Bother Annan!  You're even named after a place in Scotland.  Perhaps one of your ancestors got shagged by a Scotsman and the name stuck in the family?

DL, Good for Kofi Annan. I hear he's got a cousin with a similar name. Cocoa Gretna Green.

Banned, I do when it's about Scotland. Mind you he was getting paid to open some conference!
