Ira Gaines Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) 2 minutes ago, GordonS said: I'm sure he thought he'd win but it was always a gamble - one that he lost with Brexit. And he handed over control of the timing, the question and the franchise, all massive factors in the potential outcome. They'd have won a lot more comfortably if they'd insisted on the Westminster franchise, for instance, which excludes under 18s and foreign nationals. I'd say the evidence suggests that Cameron was incredibly short sighted, and seen both as surefire winners. EDIT: Also worth noting there was a lot more pressure on the Brexit referendum happening than there would be on the Indyref2 one from within the party. Not sure they're comparable.

JustOneCornetto Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Wasn't going to vote for Alba but I see Jim Walker is on the list for Central Scotland so might vote for them after all. Jim is a friend and fellow Ton fan who used to stand in the Cowshed with a group of us in the days of Andy Ritchie. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florentine_Pogen Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Can we do the things that Pandy can see both sides of again? The Khmer Rouge may have slaughtered millions, but they made some good points about the arrogance of the educated liberal elites.But did they get the trains running on time.? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's open to interpretation but there are no reports that he ever said to anyone that he thought the two referendums were sure-things, and I don't believe he was that naive. You're right, there was little pressure from within his party to hold indyref, but if he'd lost it he was gone. And he gave Yes every chance to beat him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrmad Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 1 hour ago, SandyCromarty said: It's totally understandable why the tories are favouring Salmond, as they think he is undermining Nicola's very popular position in Scotland, the thought throws them into orgasmic delight, when in fact he could well be "nipping" at their votes in the North east, a lot of tory voters are a bit on the thick side as exemplified by Douglas Ross the other night. It's amazing how much land and money thick folk have amassed. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll need to take a look at all the permadiddy parties standing on the list first. The Nine Percent Growth Party always looked good on paper, until their platform turned out to be based on creating a white supremacist utopia IIRC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlipperyP Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) As a man on the run, I'll not be putting a X in my local posting office. However, my newest daughter I wanted to name her Alba, until the wife put a zero no,no to it as it means crazy/thick as f**k in Thai. We went with Skye. The word Alba on it's own means nothing, however Al Ba, is more or or less Eh Ba= Houye you thinko.

That only works for the land, I'm taking it that the cash rich Tories must be 'University of lifers' due to their thickness, probably paying the wages of a fair few of the P&B intelligentsia. Nicola has certainly nudged even more of them over to the Tories. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can wiggle all you like, there are plenty of rich Tories out there who've earned what they've got, that number has increased in recent months, well done Nicola. Wonder which eejit we'll get once Nicola is found out and punted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
