Labour were so unconvincing eggs! Had to be SNP!

 

Unconvincing is an understatement! Although NOBODY saw it coming. (Anybody that says they did is a liar)

 

That's a done job mind. (Can't change history)

 

What good do you think the SNP did for Scotland or the Union?

Apologies for typos, few beers and typing fast on iPhone - fat fingers and autocorrect are unforgiving!

 

It's crap typing on a phone far easier having these sort of discussions face to face

On a serious note.

 

Every individual here runs a business or works for one*. Both these businesses and individuals must manage their finances astutely or there will be serious consequences; a repossessed home or a liquidated business.

 

Why are are people so lackadaisical about politicians promising them land of milk and honey? Where will the money come from

 

Everything has to be paid for ultimately, whether you are of conservative or a more liberal persuasion please look at the figures and ask your representative - "if you're promising me this then what is being sacrificed to pay for it?"

 

We all work on similar basis day to day to provide for our families, all politicians and their promises should be held to similar scrutiny.

 

*controversial I know but public sector doesn't count as entirely funded by contributions of private business/individuals.

Well, by their very name they won't do much for Union!! And only time will tell what they do for Scotland! It won't be easy whatever happens, Britain is a fu***d up place just now!

Most people (when pressed) wouldn't have a clue what they were talking about..... One of the Arbtalk Conseravives as proved that this evening.

I do business with Indians and they freely admit Brits were best thing that ever happened, you have to remember that the British empire didn't rape and loot like a maturing army on rampage. It organised and put structures in place. You have to step out of the rhetoric and look at facts. The demarcation lines after ww1 were wrong but an attempt to stop the sectarian butchery which existed and has now resumed now that the strongmen dictators have been disposed in the name of democracy.

 

Albeit not empire but a good example of brutality erupting after decades is former Yugoslavia under Tito.

 

Thanks you have just put me right off my curry!
