Paul Sweeney makes Fergus Ewing look like Albert Einstein. There’s a lack of talent across the board in Scotland

There's a whole bunch of talented people in Scotland, sadly none of them want to be politicians or maybe more accurately are not willing to be nodding dogs or #wheestforwhatever

Fergus Ewing

I own shirts of a greater IQ than that waste of skin.
But his surname renders him royalty up this way.
I would not trust him with my weekly shopping.

Labour are pro Brexit, anti immigration, trident renewing British Nationalists. They have nothing to offer Scotland.

So true. I don't think Labour has known what it stands for for quite some time now.


Now they just out Tory the Tories and offer a few more crumbs to fall from the big table.

That is the alternative for Scotland and the UK as a whole. Another shower of shyte, but the shyte is a little less skittery.

The SNP might be a shower of shyte, but the alternative (for me at least), isn't even worth thinking about.

Watched the Raab interview on the BBC.
What a deluded man.

Those public schools have a hell of a lot to answer for.

Pretty much where I'm at.
Unimpressed with the SNP in government...
but they're not built for government, they're a single issue movement.
I cannot, currently, envisage a world in with the UK returns a Government I do not find morally abhorrent.
Scotland has to be independent, it's the only way democracy stops being meaningless.
I'll hold my nose and vote for them, even if they end up with a reactionary dinosaur denier (with a snipers dream.....etc. &#128513 as leader.

I can't be fu cked with Westminster any more.

Same here. I hate everything it stands for.

Even if Starmer is voted in next year and makes life a little better for folk, we know that the slippery Tory bas tards are only ever an election away from power down south on a promise to reverse any good that's been done by the Socialist/Communist Labour party!

They never f*cking fail to get turkeys to vote for Xmas.

The really are as detestable as the Huns.

Not sure there’s a woman in the UK who puts up with more abuse than her & it’s nothing to do with her intelligence.

Agreed she puts up with a lot, Having said that this whole Jewish mock outrage is getting out of hand, Has there ever been a more offended peoples than the Jews. Notwithstanding I'm very aware of genocide and atrocities during WW2 which makes their oppression of the Palestinians all the more puzzling. Of course Me questioning that would make me anti Semitic.

[WhenTattieFlooredChas]

Yeah, maybe these groups who have put up with years (sometimes centuries) of oppression, marginalisation, abuse, humiliation, lesser opportunity, persecution etc. should learn to be less sensitive and get back in the box we put them in, just when they are starting to find a voice.
