I think the point is that these people, who cannot even comprehend the anatomy of a plant are afforded a vote. Aye, when you spoil your ballot you'll be striking a blow for arseholes everywhere, got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I would be happy enough with this if I were Sturgeon. May had said that the process of negotiating Brexit must come before anything else, but now she has decided to prioritise increasing her own parliamentary majority and consequently undermined her previously stated position. There is an open goal somewhere there for the SNP with an eye to a future referendum. I love general elections, to be honest. Very pleased that this is happening, as sad as that undoubtedly is.

You sheep keep putting your crosses where they tell you to put them. I want revolutionary communism and the death of the aristocratic elite as much as anyone but ideological purity doesn't take precedence over saving the lives the Tories are destroying at this minute. Get your head out your arse and do some good that goes beyond feeling superior on a football forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 This is a vote to consolidate May's position and give her some democratic credibility, and to delay another election till Brexit is complete. Means she doesn't risk the British people voting against whatever shitty Brexit deal she negotiates in a GE. The numbers will stay much the same, Lib Dems might pick up a few from Remainers in England, SNP will find it hard to do any better than last time, Labour might lose a few but they're more or less down to safe seats already, some UKIP votes will go Tory.

D Angelo Barksdale Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 It's clear that May wants to increase her majority before the full extent of the Brexit clusterfuck becomes apparent. These clownshoes are willing to walk away with no deal, which is looking pretty likely. The extra 2 years will also give them more time for gerrymandering boundary changes.

MEADOWXI Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I can genuinely see SLab in 4th with zero seats in Scotland Lib Dems somehow keep the the Northern Isles one Tories having between 1 and 4 Rest SNP And if this happening 5 weeks after the battering they are about to get in the council elections just a couple of months of suicidal misery for anyone involved with SLab.

dogmc Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Not totally certain that may will increase the majority if remain voters down south started to vote tactically against tories. Hung parliament would be hilarious even more so if snp kept 50 + seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering where the Tories will grab another 3 seats from in Scotland ? Mundell was lucky to hold onto his seat last time and there'll be a concerted effort from the SNP in the next 2 months to try and get him out this time. I don't think the Tories got close to any other seat in May 2015. The FPTP system doesn't allow them the leeway of claiming MP's because they finish in a distant 2nd or 3rd place. I suspect that the LibDems could make a comeback in their traditional strongholds like the Borders and north-east Fife, and maybe the Highlands. Whatever happens, it's likely that the SNP will quite naturally fail to hit the high points of a couple of years ago, and even though they'll probably win around 85% of the seats in Scotland the Unionists will still scream about the country rejecting a second referendum. God, I hate the Tories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the seats they hold at Holyrood and thinking of rural issues and where they might do ok I see Mundell or a Borders seat, Add one in Perthshire or Aberdeenshire And one in Edinburgh as Slab die. Could be wrong but don't see it as impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
