Scottish Politics Thread

[AfghanAndy]

The SNP can't trust Scots to vote for them.

The SNP don’t trust their MPs or MSPs to think independently either?

Why else do you think they’ve been so slow rolling out the vaccines?

I wouldn't go that far but we know who they will blame despite the fact there would be no vaccine in Scotland if they had stayed in the EU and stuck to the central planning. England grr.

Will the SNP ever get their F.A.C.T.S straight ?

Fat Arsed Cow Talks Shite.

Expect some black bagging of closest colleagues by the SGB for interrogation in a basement to discover who the mole is.

According to the Times - The mole is none other than:

Fiona Taylor, the deputy chief constable of Police Scotland

Government officials ignored police advice to direct women alleging sexual harassment against Alex Salmond to victim support services and began a criminal investigation without their consent,

Officials ignored police advice on assault claims against Alex Salmond

Government officials ignored police advice to direct women alleging sexual harassment against Alex Salmond to victim support services and began a criminal investigation without their consent, it has

I wonder how long Fiona Taylor will last if the SG previous turnover of senior Polis is anything to go by. Or maybe it’s a watershed moment when the Police are actually saying “**** all to do with us”.......

Decorated or an old building receiving repair work during winter?

Given current levels of public scrutiny it is more likely to be the latter

Either way if it fell outside the rools....

Actually in the current febrile atmosphere even if it fell outside the spirit of the rules.....

See Dominic Cummings for details.

Go away from t'inernet for one night and I miss all the fun of coco's annual return.

It could be argued that, with the spread of SNP constituency MSP seats that the majority of Scotland is SNP stronghold country.

It could also be argued that the majority of Scottish constituencies are not being offered a real and credible alternative due to the abject failure of the other parties and sadly the SNP continue to win but with no real enthusiasm for them - even though I detest the man, if one eye Brown ran I suspect that he would break through

He was, I grudgingly admit, quite excellent (and eloquent) in the Indyref run up.

Every government should be held to account by an effective opposition.

Very true, but the SNP seem very good at swerving any penetrating questions and sidelining witnesses.

Guess they smell blood in the water.

 

[buggrit]

I get the impression that her own party and staff are threaders with her, considering all these "whistleblowers" that are popping up lately. I look forward to the day she's jailed / booted / ridiculed beyond belief.

 

[muzzleflash]

Guess they smell blood in the water.

Especially if its in the record, a paper that makes the Nationalist seem like the Torygraph.

That is getting a lot of air time on sky news channel.

Wot is getting a lot of air time on Sty News? There is nothing on Al Beeb apart from slavish and lengthy coverage every day of Nippie's party political broadcasts Covid updates.

Oh fekkit! I'm in an unforgiving mood this morning, so in for a penny, etc.....

[Reasonable shield down]
And as for the Scottish Nazis strident calls for 'Freedom!' (© M. Gibson), just give the vote to the English and they'll be 'free' so fast Fatty Blackford and his acolytes won't even have time to clear his desk at Westminster and get the fekk out of the British parliament. He and they are all like a yappy Scottish terrier up on its hind legs straining safely at the leash and gobbing off at a much larger dog - until the leash suddenly breaks and the yappy dog has to fend for itself.

Weirdly, the reality is the public in vast numbers think Nicola has handled Covid better than BoJo:

BBC poll suggests Nicola Sturgeon has handled Covid-19 pandemic better than Boris Johnson

We have already discussed and explained that. The apoplectic indignation of the separatists when the BBC even suggested taking the Daily Party Political Propaganda Broadcast Briefing off the telly was a good indication of what it really was, since there was no real need for a daily appearance on a subject that had moved from an emerging national crisis phase into general maintenance and management. The YesNP are extremely adept at their PR (admiration is duly given) and the way they can spin and distort back to the "answer is independence" in every single situation is phenomenal.

What is astonishing is that the local media allow them do this almost unquestioningly, but this is aided and abetted by a poor cohort of opposition figures who find it difficult to counter the strategy in any effective way. And so the lip-service the Party pays to democracy is only for show - like all Nationalist parties the world over (especially those rooted in socialist ideals) they don't believe in it for others, just themselves. So they play at voting and discourse but you must ensure you vote the right way and that the discourse is not to challenge the fundamental concepts in any way. Do so and you will be punished - if not destroyed.

Mrs Murrell has in the main simply copied what was happening in the other areas, although she has led some actions from the front as well, but when she does the following she is very adept at making enough changes to make it appear solely Jockanese, which tricks the unthinking into believing it was all her own work. Very cunning, and as we can see, very effective.
