btb Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 I find it hard to see the Tories giving her a high profile in next year's election - I can't see her "just an ordinary person" routine impressing many folk after the events of the last year. That would just leave Ross appealing to the "staunch" vote. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who follow her venal manoeverings have a low opinion of her, but most people won't be aware that she's moved to the House of Lords, or hardly spoke to her constituents, or runs away from every tough interview. Or even that she's no longer leader of the Tories in Scotland. They still see her as that jovial, tank-straddling plain speaker, and no-one in the media reminds folk of the truth. Plus, who else from the Tories is going to get a high-profile role? Murdo Fraser? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with support for independence rising. It's a lifetime gig in the Lords, a title, a few directorships at Tory friendly corporates and a lucrative sideline as a tv personality/house trained jock. When you think of actual tangible achievements you can attribute to her though, what are they? Even I've contributed more to society, and that's saying something. When we do gain Independence I very much doubt that Scots will be welcome at englands political table. Sun headlines screaming in bold, ' Scotch foreigners voting on english laws' comes to mind. So all going well Goldie and the Blurt and all other Scots unelected arselickers in the HOL might not have a cosy job for life.

Yet another positive for Yes. As for the Sun, and I agree with you, the response should be: STREWTH COBBER!!!

Must've missed the first post which it true as far as it goes, but I agree with what Sandy says if&when independence happens I reckon it'll be game up for the Scottish members. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a whole swathe of Scottish peers. 24 Labour, 15 Conservative, 10 Lib Dems 10 Crossbenchers And 11 hereditary peers living in Scotland And have absolutely no doubt that these unelected leeches will fight tooth and nail against Scotland becoming Independent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, I googled but could not find any definitive answer, it could come down to residency, for instance the Blurt taking formal residency in London could delay possible HOL expulsion, when I say expulsion my argument there is based on the social difference from Ireland in the 1920's and to Scotland nowadays with regards to social media, on gaining independence there will be a widespread severe backlash against Scots in political office in England generated in the Daily Mail type right wing conservative media which will accelerate on social media, england for the english will be the shout. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
