BBC just mentioned that SNP/Greens/Alba got 51% of the list vote.

The Greens will attract some Unionist tree huggers, but that's ammunition for the Yes side.

Yay.

A vote of mine wasn't a complete waste of time.

So your basic point is that a Labour candidate supporting the right of a pro Indy majority to call a referendum is the same as a Labour candidate supporting independence?

 

No my basic point is you said "referendum" when perhaps you meant something else because you were involved in too many individual arguments to retain consistency and since then you have been trying to deflect from this - the trail of posts is clear to see for anyone who cares to look although I'd advise them not to.

Meanwhile we can continue to make fools of ourselves with this tedious argument - your move!

Joan McAlpine pumped out the parliament is tremendous stuff

Nicola needs to spend big in the summer and go and sign someone off the Greens or Labour.

Presiding Officer now becomes really interesting. Who is going to give someone up?

I was curious about the absence of Gorgeous George Galloway from the telly.  Apparently he was chased up a tree by a puppy and is refusing to come down. 

The Daily Express literally spent the last 6 months with a daily headline talking about how Galloway was going to hold the SNP to account and would revolutionise the Scottish parliament. 

f**k you, you fucking fucks.

It's been a really underwhelming day for the Greens after the chat of 12 or 13 possible seats.  The unionist types have clearly been much smarter with tactical voting than the independence side.

Is there any chance in lothian list? No I assume

If you want to go there then plenty labour voters want independence.

SNP increasing their seat number.

Another nail in the deranged narrative that the SNP did not absolutely smash this election.

This went well

There will be plenty of Unionists voting SNP as well.

Or "soft Indy supporter" as a particular Woman put it.

I can see your Voice is more important than the Scottish General Election coverage

Those people of course understand that they can vote SNP and then vote No in a future referendum.

Guess it was just me who voted for the animal welfare party.  I'm not Vegan.  I read the leaflet and broadly agreed with the aims.  Mon the wee parties.

If you're reading this Tom Martin, get it right up ye. And yes, it was me who pished in a cupboard when Stu and I stayed in your flat. We both think you're a horrible quisling class traitor for taking Express filthy money. 

And breath......
