See Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao Zedong and the Khmer Rouge. The problem is extremist and authoritarian politics, and it's not just a left or a right problem. I believe they were funded and aided by the Americans and the British Conservative Party. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How could Holyrood have forced them to carry on with it against their will? They couldn’t. My memory might be a wee bit hazy, but ffs Parp...that’s jobbies you’ve just posted through the P&B letterbox. "The future of the scheme came under threat in 2007, when the Scottish National Party (SNP) published its manifesto for the Scottish Parliamentary election. The party made clear its intention to cancel the scheme, along with the Edinburgh Airport Rail Link, to save £1.1 billion.[16] Following a lost vote in the Scottish Parliament, the SNP-led minority Scottish Government agreed to continue the line from the airport to Leith on condition that no more public money would be supplied." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edinburgh_Trams#Proposals_for_the_Edinburgh_tram_network You're a fucking moron. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if frothing at the mouth counts as real interviewing, heads gone rant at the end. All easily dealt with of course.

I actually don't think Nicola did very well but it's difficult to do that when he is shouting over all her answers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was an absolute mess. First Neil's quotes from the growth commission report were wrong. Then she recognised that the quotes were correct but reckoned Neil didn't understand them. She finally plumped on acknowledging the quotes and Neil's understanding but flat out claiming that her own growth commission report was wrong. Confirmatory referendum? She want's it for Brexit. She doesnt want it for any deal for independence as she'll set out the withdrawal deal before the vote. Except for the 2014 white paper which overestimated oil revenue by somewhere in the region of £7.5billion and included no proper proposal for independent Scotland's currency. NHS? 28% of people might need to wait more than 12 weeks to be seen and some cancer patients are waiting more than 2 months for treatment but at least they're working on the problems (that they themselves created whilst in power at Holyrood). Super duper new hospital in Glasgow? Ach it's no biggie that pidgeon shite is contaminating the water supply and that people are dying. They're trying to fix it. Kiddies hospital 7 years late and counting because it's unsafe for use due to the risk of infection spreading? They're fixing it. Not to mention the public money spunked on Prestwick, BiFab and Ferguson Marine. The money invested in BiFab has been subject to an almost total write off. Neil could have gone after those deals but didn't. Truly terrifying stuff. Their record on the day job is absolutely woeful and Sturgeon and the SNP's failures were well exposed by an interviewer who wasn't on message with the SNP.

pandarilla Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Nicola coming up against a real interviewer for a change. Ooft. That was heavy going, but she hung in there very, very well. I wish she'd have properly challenged him at the end when he had his epic rant about the health service. She stayed very calm and let him have his moment. I'd have preferred:"Andrew do you need to be the star of three show here? Do you want to continue your rant or would you like me to respond at any point? I'm happy to sit here and let you go for it. It's very entertaining, but probably not for the viewers at home."She coped well but he put all the legitimate points to her very strongly. She knew the detail, but he's bang on about the risk involved with independence in the short term. And with the deficit to surplus point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
