A heady mix of Essex and Brummie there. Sad if we've become unpopular in the classier parts of England.

Same thing really. It’s all BrexTory to me.

I think you've misread the situation, Snaffles.

You red dotting my historical posts doesn't bother me.

It's amusing that you take the time to do so

f**k off, you love it.

If you are a wrestling fan or MMA fan you'll enjoy all the trash talk and all this carry on, its why you stick around.

I'm sure you've noticed I've never or maybe I can't remember calling you a bad name.

No comment!

Yes, that famously Tory city, Birmingham. 9 MPs, 8 Labour.

For all the hand wringing about the protest in Perth the other night, you read through a thread like this on Twitter and you realise just how absolutely fucking twisted some of these arseholes are. Rejoicing in the fact that a woman can't have children is a different level of low life scum. These c***s need absolutely hounded.

No arguments from me on that one.

Mocking someone for or even saying it was good that they can’t have children is low as hell.

My home town in the West Midlands voted Leave by 2:1, so I'll be saying nothing about Birmingham's very narrow Leave vote.

Despite not having been there in a long time, I have a soft spot for Brum because my father claims there are areas he won't visit as they're full of "them".

I'll leave you to imagine who "they" are

I've read the 1689 CoR.  It's a short document.  You can read it here:

https://www.legislation.gov.uk/aosp/1689/28

So point out where the Scottish constitution is.

It points out that we can depose Kings. We the people of Scotland. Scots sovereignty 

The Convention of Estates has been ignored for too long.  Time to reconvene it. 

Even more now we have a Scottish government that is fucked up.

The most annoying thing for me is that these tubes clearly just like attention, and don't care about the damage they do. 

There are legitimate reasons to protest and legitimate reasons to be angry that a closed contest is being fought up here on the basis of how best to ignore us and circumvent the people we do elect. 

Even more irritatingly one of the only online reports from the hustings which isn't utterly terrible, contemptible tory fanzine pish is from James Cook. 

And I am not a fan. He may be the best of a bad bunch but post 2014 he said in some podcast that the BBC not only didn't really scrutinise the NO side but that they didn't need to. 

ETA but that doesn't, for the avoidance of doubt, make screaming traitor at him acceptable or asking how Scottish he is not spine bendingly cringeworrhy and embarrassing. 

Legitimate in what way?  Civil disobedience has to cross the boundary.

The thing is, most people are NOT blind to the Tories abusing their power. I just think that for a tiny group resorting to behaving like absolute wallopers is a MUCH welcome distraction for the Tory's and their media pals to run cheap, lazy, tabloid headlines to deflect away from what people should be focussing on which is the Tories abusing their power. It's just falling right into their trap. 

Yes they were blind to Tories abuse of power, now they may have their eyes opened.

I’m sorry, I really don’t agree. I’m an Independence supporter & always will be, there are soft no’s , just as there are soft yes’s. If this wasn’t the case (in general) there would be no swing in any election in around a 25 year period. Of course it hurts independence if some supporters are being c***s. 
If you liken it to football (it’s a football forum after all) in the 80’s & 90’s any team with a minority hooligan support was castigated. I’m not saying they should have been, but they were. It’s the same with this. Be squeaky clean or suffer the anti-Indi press. It’s a bad look. 

There are no soft nos left, the choice has already been made. 

There are no soft yes either. 

My opinion.

Might as well call it a day on independence then.

It's neither of these things.  There is no right to Britain being partitioned.  And although I don't vote Conservative I  am happy that Truss and Sunak have made this point clear.

What our next PM has to do is either ban secession - like Germany -  or raise a high bar - like Canada.

What we can't have is Britain being held to ransom by a thicket of small-minded xenophobes.

Nice joke there, I had a fair giggle.

The issue was settled in 2014 and that's that.

You're right though.  Hate should never win, and laws should be in place to stop them continuing to hold the country to ransom.

The issue wasn't settled.  Since 2015 there has been a majority vote for an Independence referendum by the people of Scotland, whether you like it or not. To deny this would be a denial of democracy.  

Now I see that the UK is changing in such a way that I believe it is going too far right for my liking.  I am a socialist at heart.

some unhinged and ill-informed indy supporters spouting and shouting nonsense at a on his best day, competent, BBC reporter - nothing short of horrific. Such hateful scenes. 

Successive Tory Govts feeling more and more enabled to make vulnerable and ever more poorer people at the bottom end of society destitute and without hope or options, whilst they fill their pockets through self serving decisions that benefit less than 2% of the population (supported by the "opposition" who are content with the current voting and establishment structures) - that's politics. Nothing to see here. 

 

 

 

And who do you think got up off their arse and actually tried to do something about it!! 

So how about calm down the slagging.

Britain is dead already matey.

There is no case to make for the union, bar making it illegal to leave. (That is not a union by-the-way).

You know that the little Englanders would vote for partition in their droves given the chance. They would love to show us Jock Scroungers the door.

It is all over. 

Its not illegal to leave.
