Stephen Malkmus Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Yeah, fair to say that the SNP are pretty fucked in that seat now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 He sounds like a fucking idiot to be fair. Quisling? Good grief. They can't punt him now without giving up the seat as well. I think murray may hold this seat anyway. The boy has apologised. Difficult to see what happens next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urban Gorilla Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Dunno if anyone's seen this. Not good for the boy standing for SNP in Edinburgh South. http://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/snp-candidate-sorry-over-twitter-trolling-1-3751958 Think he'll have to go after those comments. What a clown. That's one seat the SNP can forget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fide Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Ach you never know. Mhairi Black's a shoe in for Paisley and Ren South and she's had one or two comments. It may all blow over in a day or two. These things tend to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will prob blow over although dugdale and murphy will keep bringing in up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Don't think it's bad enough for him to get the sack, should Cameron get the sack for labelling Salmond as a thief? Obviously a bit more out of order than that, but I imagine it's only going to be Dugdale and Murphy that'll really push for it considering how desperate they are. ETA: SNP are still favourites for that seat with all the bookies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may all blow over in a day or two. These things tend to. I think his comments will chime nicely with those that are nowhere near pension age, we've had parties pandering to them for decades now rather than tackling the problem of an ageing population. I would love to see figures in todays money that shows how much your average 75 year old has paid into the system opposed to how much they've taken out and how much more they will take out.

Jambomo Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Think he'll have to go after those comments. What a clown. That's one seat the SNP can forget The comments aren't great but i doubt it'll really change peoples mind at this stage, I think a lot of folk are voting on the party rather than the person in this one. I'm, still going to vote for him, unless they do sack him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
