Our sense of humour, generosity, togetherness, friendship, diversity, inclusivity, tolerance, self depreciation & fairness! We don't always get it right, but I reckon we're a pretty good lot!!

We don't always get it right, but I reckon we're a pretty good lot!! It's like that Kevin Bridges routine about those people who work in Poundstretcher for no money and ask British Gas if they can pay their bills in self esteem. All of those things are jolly, but not so handy if you're a disabled single mother with a son and daughter in seperate bedrooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Bojangles Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Full federalisation would make me hesitate, but it wouldn't do anything about the defence issues I have. So I guess nothing could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really couldn't care less about the SNP. They've done a better job in government than anyone else from what I can see. They'll certainly get in at the next election because Labour are totally useless. After that, who knows what the political landscape in Scotland will end up like. I like that. Politics in Scotland and especially the rUK needs shaken up. In the future I'm not even sure there will be an SNP. Independence is the one aim that brings them together. Basing you're vote on your dislike for the SNP is very shortsighted. Do you think the current Con/Lib government fall close to the values that you listed ?
