Scottish Government moving the goalposts

[Returnofrros]

Why do you think that SNP will not form a majority government? Polls seem to me to be a bit simple and I don't think understand the subtlety of the Scottish voters mentality. For every wee wheeze the union supporting parties can think up, I think the SNP have an equally thoughtful and creative mindset. Just look and compare the insightful posts from Islay on one side and Taintedice on the other.

Tactical voting will play a big part.

Scots don't like liars.

I agree about liars. Just a very 'angelic' instrument that doesn't fit my punk rock ethos.

Salmond no Angel but to be part of a 5 man/woman tag team to conspire to jail him just to further her political ambition and become a "me too" heroine sickens me.

This has a long way to run yet.....if she survives I'd perversly admire her stickability but fear for what's coming.

This isn't the way a country should be run.

I used the phrase ulsterisatian of Scottish politics a few pages back and I can see it heading that way......a permanent situation where 45 to 49% of the population are pissed off......it's not good.....not good at all.

Forgot about your musical inclinations. Still standing by them I see.

Sorry Deeranged poor choice of words. I thought that SNP supporters who care about democracy might understand the problem that the Salmond enquiry has revealed might be something that all Scots could agree on. Absolutely no disrespect intended and our Holyrood politicians should be asking for the changes to be made to help rein in an unaccountable First Minister and her party. I would be making the same point no matter what party had behaved in Scotland the way the current SNP have.

Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP are accountable to the people of Scotland, there is to be an election in just a few weeks, why are you talking as though we're living in North Korea. And your last sentence is completely false and you know it, the tories and labour both shafted their leaders recently and you said nothing about it, don't blame you, unionists are boring as phukk whilst the SNP are box office, like the Dees tonight

7 polls in a row now favour unity.....latest 57%.

You really have no clue about how polls work, do you

The infamous poll in Auf Weidersehen, Pet when the boys had to paint their hut yellow because yellow got more 2nd votes than any other colour got 1st.

Fantastic scripting.

Is that a compliment

This from rros 'Odds on SNP majority are 8/15' shows the SNP are twice as likely to form a majority government as not. At least I think it shows the odds are well in favour of an SNP majority, never worked out on/against in betting. The daily onslaught from the British is mobilising support for the SNP like it did for Irish republicanism during internment in Northern Ireland. The Brits never learn.

Just been found guilty of mis leading parliament.

9/2 ticket looks guid now....very guid.

That was Boris Johnson, in a (Supreme Court) court of law, which is the only place you can be found guilty. Since it's a legal term.

Stick to the golf

ps English government now trying to pass legislation to nullify the Supreme Court.

Is posting this pish more mentally strenuous than a round of golf?

Like your constant pish around covid, having to make stuff up on Scottish politics puts you in the Flat Earther zone. Do you all share a room at the Community Centre?

And I'd estimate the amount of people who share your hard-right views in Scotland to be about 1%. In Dundee, about 0,0000004%, that's you and a couple of your mates
