???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????it’s comin Andy boi, I was never sure, Boris, Trump, never been a better time for Krankie,bring it on, inevitable

Well, we'll see I guess? I'll feel a wee twinge in my panties if Trump looses to Seepy Joe and his Drug Bust kid. Looks like Rudy has that family firmly by the balls now. Lets see how that plays out.

 

As I said, I dont doubt the SNP will do as well at the next election as the last. Their voter base is not remotely interested in politics and heavily vested in what they can get for free. 

 

The SNP need a scapegoat. Being tethered to England allows 'us' to focus our downfalls to the English (Tories if you like) The Barnett Formula, long a contention between us Scots and the English and I feel (we) Scots are justified in feeling its been a token gesture to placate a nation (in the 70's, 80's and 90's) The Guffs steal all our oil and we get a few pence back (im 100% behind this) But now we've been sucked (almost ) dry where are we gonna go now? 

 

Mull, you're heavy on empty soundbites and light on anything other than emojies and duff links. Im sure you have something more to come back with (surely?)

Well, we're firmly on th same page regarding Labour. (surprisingly)  They are/where at leats a laughing stock. At least Starner is a veneer of respectability and authority. 

 

Polls are wånk, all polls are wånk. Conformation bias for those that need that kinda conformation back-up. But I actually can see what you say has been predicted coming to fruition. Scotland is a country of greedy, freeloading soap dodging jakie bams. Is England to blame here? Perhaps. The reality ( in my mind) is the vast majority of the Scottish people have come to rely on  the state. Be that the teat of the Tories (I'll assume the Tories plan all along) or now as the Tories have long lost their grip the SNP. 

 

The SNP panders the lowest common denominator. Thats the vast majority of the Scottish population. A sub-servient Sink Estate minimum wage or most likely dole bum that cling to the SNP's false hope of a better Scotland free of England Yoke.

 

This works in the the vast majority of poor areas, but not so much where people earn a decent wage and have an education slightly above Gender Studies expressed through dance. 

 

The main two policies of the SNP are independence and taxing anyone who is paid higher than the vast majority of their voters more, again, and again, and again, ad infinitum. At the same time as taxing hard working folk to death denying them any of the perks the lazy seem to feel more than entitled to. Having lived and worked within the Norwegian Tax system for the last 11 years, and Norway is supposedly a shining beacon for Scotland, a country to emulate, the SNP fall down here massively. But the SNP have no intention of ever following the Norwegian/Scandinavian Model, the SNP need greedy, lazy and jealous voters to keep them in power, and the SNP are loathed to ever give that up. 

 

Ive been born and bred on the SNP. My fathers side where heavily involved in canvasing (or whatever its called) throughout my childhood. But for me its like having the scales lifted from my eyes. 

 

We vote for clowns in Scotland and are surprised we live in a circus.  

I know your politics,weve been down this road before.

The last 3 pre election polls in Scotland have been on the money so the wank theory isnt really warranted in this instance.

I skipped reading most of your post because it seemed self indulgent and i couldnt really be bothered with your usual portrayal of the typical scot as being a workshy dole bum blah blah analysis.I will concur to your scrutiny of the Snp tax policies which are unfair but as ive said many times im not a fan of the Snp....just a vehicle to independence.

You asked me if I'd prefer (or words to that affect) a Johnson, or Corbyn government, I think.

Yes you're right. I actually did.   Its been a busy night. 

 

I do find it somewhat titillating that you would claim to see a Corbyn Government and a Johnson Government on an equal pegging. I doubt one person here believes that. Including you.

Polls in general are wånk.  I'll reiterate that I see what is predicted for Scotland happening, for the very reasons I mentioned.

Not sure if you've been so vocal on that before? Maybe you have? Perhaps we're more aligned that either of us would actually like to admit.  

 

Believe it or not I am 100% behind a Scottish Independence. I have never shied away from this or ever changed my tune on this subject. Every post Ive ever posted here has been in complete support of that. But I would rather be subjected to English rule than EU rule. I would also like to see a policy of the SNP tht was not based on hating anyone earning over £50k, or £85k or £100k. 

 

You might have a slightly closeted view on the general Scottish population as you not only live in the middle of feck all but also give the appearance on an actual island off of the middle of fecking no where. Now whilst Im slightly jealous as thats where I wanna be you seem to speak with an air of authority of what life is like in the 'real' Scotland. 

 

Out of interest, is your islands council a beneficiary or contributor to Scotland's economy?

LEFT BIAS These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward liberal causes through story selection...

Not just left of center, but extreme left. Can you imagine anyone in any good faith expect someone to read something from the radical right, or left in good faith? 

 

Considering your empty attempt to disassociate yourself from the hard and radical left posting links to such outlets pooh poohs that weak as a tesco beer attempt quite easily. 

 

You must be on the cheap stuff again?
