D Angelo Barksdale Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Rishi Sunak helped to crash the economy in 2008 with a domino effect of over a decade of austerity, the rise of the far right and Brexit, and a huge rise in support for Scottish independence. Glen Minter: this man is a political genius. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Sannox Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Where did one say he was a political genius? We could always get the SNP poster boy, Derek McKay to look after the purse strings. Oh wait, he’s too busy trying to groom boys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying it’s going to be as egregious as California voting to destroy worker’s rights because of insane funds going into propaganda efforts but loads of people are going to switch off after independence day and a lot of things will get put in place that will just be tolerated because they’re already in place and well it’s not as bad as it is down south. 11 hours ago, MixuFruit said: such a cynic, I foresee the opposite, an explosion of political interest as happened after the Parliament opened. I'll go with the cynicism. An explosion of political interest is good, and to be welcomed. An acceptance of 'at least it's not as bad as down south' is a pretty low bar to set. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don’t like them then just vote them out once we are independent 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always fucking negative, as we'll see in the approaching election. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Questioning the SNP individual 'talent' as part of an argument on independence is disingenuous to say the least. Similarly, anyone who cites not liking Boris Johnson as reason to vote yes is probably missing the point slightly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I think it’s valid to want independence because of people like Boris Johnson. I don’t want to be part of a country where 40+% of the voting electorate think he’s suitable to be Prime Minister. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I more meant that not liking the prime minister of the day isn't a great reason to vote for long term constitutional change, and probably makes you quite fickle. It concerns me that if you're polling yes because of Boris now, you might be morel likely to melt and vote no in reality once the Project Fear campaign gets back into full swing. Albeit I take your point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People definitely believe we need a referendum while Boris is at the helm and not someone superficially more charming. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Of course, voting No, and ignoring the fact that the SNP could be removed by the people of Scotland from the govt of an Indy Scotland is precisely the same logic as digging out Yessers for bemoaning being repeatedly governed by a party that has been rejected countless times in Scotland, yet rules us anyway. Thick fucker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
