First minister debate

I’m guessing they’re no standing because they know its fucked.
Agreed, the coalition support from the Greens has pushed them down routes they didn’t want to follow and it’s cost them big time.

SNP membership numbers have allegedly dropped, with a lot of apathy expressed even before wee Jimmy resigned. I don’t see any of these three being inspiring.
 
Be like picking off my dangleberries after camping out on a boggy moor for a week.

What was his behaviour? Getting drunk and trying it on when he thought he had a chance despite being married? Demanding more from people in his cabinet when they were slacking and ripping funds? Working 18 hour days for his country?
OK, you ignore the women who accused him of sexual assault if you want. Hundreds of thousands won't.

And anyone who uses a position of authority as a way to get his subordinates into the sack is a sleazy scumbag who can fuck right off.
 
Absolutely - it went to court and he was exonerated. This is politics. Same thing was done to CS Parnell a century ago.

Anti establishment get this behaviour.

Pro establishment are constantly let go.

He tried to get us independence. He was destroyed. His apprentice turned on him.

Slander is the oldest trick in the book and the poorest most uneducated always fall for it.

He's a gunt. That's an awful disease.

But we're hibs. We're better than listening to shite the media feeds us. Judge the man on his actions in politics and what he did for this country
I don't need to rely on the media for info on Salmond.
 
The SNP do have politicians with the gravitas to lead the party and deliver independence IMO, unfortunately (and weirdly?) none of them are standing
They can't be leaders unless they behave like leaders. Leaders lead .
 
followed it intensively. Was he not exonerated?

No question to Nicola spending 400k of taxpayers money training witnesses against him?
Yes he was found not guilty, that's not up for question.
Did he come over as some creepy pest? Did he make these moves ( which he admitted) on women, while he was married ?
If you choose to back a character like that , then that is your free choice. Knock yourself out mate.

£400 000 of.tax payers money training witnesses ? Your slavering tom kite .
 
Apparently SNP membership has shrunk by 33% in 2 years, revealed tday 😩
All the unionists and their Trojan horses - Alba getting a hard-on today over the SNP membership figures. At the end of the day it’s the numbers of votes from the electorate that determines the fate of the country.
 
It was £75k coaching witnesses…the 400k+ was the cost figure from ignoring legal advice the Scottish government sought.
 
Why would alba be getting a hard on over the snp figures? Can't see many figures there that I'd be interested in 😬
Because, as you well know, Alba are trying to destroy the SNP. All because NS wouldn’t make the sexual harassment complaints against AS go away as he requested of her.
The fat handsy gunt cuddler fucked it in 2014. He’s not getting another chance.
 
Don't agree with that. I would think it's obtuse to think a guy who pretty much designed the white paper by himself to have a personal grievance in politics.

He's to clever for that.

I would think he's wanting to oversee a dissolution of the snp.
With a daft wee laughable party no one elects. I reckon they have been infiltrated by the spy’s.

You don’t think it’s personal for AS? 🙄 Wanna buy a bridge?
We’ll find out at the next election whether the people want a party of sound governance or a bunch of hooks, crooks and comic singers running the country.
 
I'm going to save face for you.

Scotland is treated as a region of the UK. Not an equal, which is its lawful entitlement as a founding member of the Union.

As a sovereign state which was (eventually) accepted by the Pope we had that right before the Union of the Crowns.

If we really want independence - which in effect is controlling our own revenue we shouldn't have to consult Westminster for their overrule.

Sturgeon did that in the most rudemantal form.

Scotlands wealth is being squandered by a few and we accept that because we see them as people like us. It's nonsense. Our healthcare, infrastructure, industries are being destroyed
Wealth everywhere is being squandered and the people are being subjected to austerity. My suspicion is that the supply chain problems in food provision are deliberate by the government to make the population more resilient. Also the push to get people off benefits and back to work along with early retirees isn’t to save money, it’s preparing us for WW3 and the return of the ‘blitz spirit’. The world is sliding inevitably towards it and nobody is around with a voice of calm and reason.

You didn’t answer your own question.
 
Jeremy hunt on news wide eyed lying about saving peoole money and we accept it. Fair enough. At least alex salmond has a brain in his head. I don't want decisions on my income being made by w@nkers who haven't even lived here - alex salmond is versed in economics. Jeremy hunt is another tory.

I want the best for Scotland.
Do you live in Scotland?
 
There are correct points being made on both sides of this argument 🤔 you never know, whoever gets appointed , might reverse the downward trend of the SNP. Westminster’s tories are doing their utmost to alienate us,so the No’s may just finally see sense and propel us away from their governance🤷‍♂️
Fingers crossed 🤞
 
Ok:

Scotland should be independent.

For one reason or another Nicola sturgeon didn't push for it.

Scotland is the greatest nation on earth but being raped with taxation and trade.

Understand?
Are you one of the guys that's going to help us get independence? Cos your patronising, Salmond fanboy, attitude is just helping confirm to me that we're no different to England so there's no point.

Humza Yousaf has been reported to Police Scotland for appearing to break the Hate Crime and Public Order Act, after claiming double rapist Isla Bryson is “not a genuine trans woman” during the latest SNP leadership debate. The same Hate Crime Act introduced by… Humza Yousaf.
