I was referring to your rambling boxing analogies in the aftermath followed up by desperately chucking actual cash on the table insisting NS will be gone in a month or two. Then serving up a couple of meandering word salads before gathering yourself and resorting dark and mysterious hints about what the future holds, whilst not actually being specific about which dodgy machinations you're referring to, meaning no matter what happens you can fall back on a told you so lads. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 So, he’s the second most popular politician in Scotland then? Or is there anyone else in the middle? Apparently in the same poll Johnson is more popular than Salmond. Even when he was popular, Salmond was still marmite, especially to female voters. As I've said repeatedly - there's no reason for SNP folk to attack Alba - just leave them to their own devices.Interestingly it looks like someone has had a word with some high profile MSPs - like Humza Yousaf - absolutely no mention of Alba in their tweets and other Social Media.Which is absolutely the right thing to do. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll be Sunak I'd imagine, I think Keir will do well when the time comes but not enough to close the gap. Here I know this a bit out there but Stella Creasy or Lisa Nandy could be PM one day imo. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is absolutely the right thing to do. I agree with the tactics, I said as much the other day that they would be drawn in on petty arguments, Blackford comments confirmed that the other day. The SNP should definitely do there best to ignore the Alba stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. The roaster wing of the party really needed their knuckles rapped over that. Idiots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) Sunak won't get the membership, IMO. It'll be Patel as she's vicious and ticks the same psychosexual boxes that Thatcher did.

She's a useful tool to throw red meat at the Daily Mail readers and detract from Bojo and his failings but I just can't see the majority of Conservatives at this point in history electing a non white female to lead their party. They could probably stomach a woman or a non white male but the two at the same time is asking a lot for such a group. Victoria Atkins and Tom Tugendhat for my long range future leader predictions.

I don't think the membership is necessarily sexist in the way people assume, say, the Rust Belt are. They would definitely list Thatcher in the top 2 Conservative PMs if there was a vote and Patel is sufficiently cruel, vindictive, and appeals to the psychosexual deranged freaks that actually have a membership of that party. Those are qualities Sunak doesn't possess. Then again, it wouldn't surprise me if they went for someone bland like Dominic Raab to course correct. They also like doing that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I seriously doubt Patel will ever lead the Tories but I don't think it's because there are a significant number of Tories out there thinking "Now, I don't mind brown people and I don't mind women but a brown woman? Never!" If Johnson were to go right now, I've no doubt Sunak would be the next leader. He's lucky in that he got to ride the crest of the wave and be the one to appear to be giving everyone free money. He's essentially had the easiest job in British politics probably for decades. the chancellor that gets to give everyone cash and has Brexit and the pandemic as an excuse. He's also affable enough that people who aren't traditional Tories like him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
