The wider membership might be a bit more conservative but it points to the next leadership election being a bloodbath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-MAN Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Just catching up on the goings on here. How much control do the Cherryites have over the party now? Or are they still a minority with a few important positions? We are not the minority. A very small but loud faction in the YSI and Stirling isn’t going to dent Yes Support. The reaction of Blackman, Wishart, Hunter etc has been fairytale stuff. Blackman in particular needs to go for a lie down, poor souls.Hope Paisley and his wee Pals have got their solicitors on standby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm honestly not big on following the factional infighting of the SNP so rather than reciting a list of names who might be upset explain to me what's changed here.

Detournement Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 It's pretty unbelievable that the Finance Minister is parroting the thickos in my work who moan about their bonus being taxed every single year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I don't follow NEC elections for much the same reasons as I don't take part in historical battle reenactments or have a Twitter account dedicated to football analytics, but Hanvey being elected to the conduct committee isn't the best look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I'm assuming the advice to trans people is to get in the closet and lock the door, and for anti semites to open the curtains? Hopefully not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 (edited) Sakes... Quote There are still a few Twitler Youth cowering in some of the danker corners of the NEC, but they’ll be feeling lonely because basically it’s been a rout. There’s a small chance the SNP might yet be saveable. Quote the convener of the hyper-woke, trans-captured Young Scots for Independence faction... And who knew that the actions of transactivists up to this point had in fact been a demonstration of “reconciliation”? Just what we need when finally getting consistent polling in favour of independence, a fucking imported right wing "culture war" pushed by the right honourable member for Bath and Wells. I'm utterly amazed that anyone would fall for this shite. Edited December 1, 2020 by welshbairn 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're so naive. You're like the Corbynites who were delighted that they'd taken over the Labour Party, not having anywhere near the level of self-awareness to see that you're killing the party. Also, celebrating the election of people who openly hate a vulnerable minority and encourages their followers to pile-on is hideous. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I'm assuming the Baathist coup is exaggerated, two or three contested apparatchik positions seized.

Honest Saints Fan Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Joanna Cherry doesnt care about anyone but herself. Utter c**t. Thinks she'll draw people to the SNP but she will just drive them away. Kirsty Blackman calling her out tonight was beautiful.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 The SNP have been in power for 13 years, why is this even the focus right now? Are they trying to trip the SNP up at the final hurdle or what? It's clear that there is absolute zero common consensus over the issue with people pretty much split right down the middle on it. Do we really need to be dealing with this right now? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon EF Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 So it seems there's two strands: A bit of a shift towards those who want a tougher stance on powers for referendum / self-determination as opposed to the 'section 30 or nothing' crowd. Absolutely fine with that. I feel like there has to be that balance within the party. A shift towards nutters like Joanna Cherry who've chosen the GRA hill to die on. That's certainly an absolute minter for the party. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
