He likes a bet, he's a gambler, he's reckless, he can't be trusted to be calm and rational like me, me, me. He's washed up and out of ideas or fresh policies - have a go at that, not that he has a hobby. Or maybe, should it now be that pursuing any activity beyond the boundaries of a Wee Free minister now precludes you from being able to hold office in this country? His gambling side was only perceived as reckless after he stepped aside, her whole interview was less than good, she's sounding more like the rest with every passing day, independence day looks a long way away at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I confidently predict that they won't get a single vote in my constituency or the regional list. In fact, I'd be very surprised if they got any representation at all in the whole senedd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt her quoted comments were the sum and substance of what she said to the Record, they are about 20 seconds of dialogue. Far more likely she gave an interview and the Record, in their wisdom, have chosen to print that snippet because it’s at a level their readership would understand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I wouldn’t vote for Salmond’s ego project if they were the only party standing on the list. I’m planning to vote Green. I can’t see many casting their vote for Tasmina who has had more parties than Peter Stringfellow.But not as many as George Kerevan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Sturgeon needs to drop it regarding Salmond and the Alba party....... All it is doing,is fuelling a fire,his ego and the unionists split in the indy camp pish. Step back,take a breath nicola and walk away. You've got bigger fish tae fry......I think she needs to go down the route of a stock answer response if asked about Salmond/Alba. Something along the lines that you'll need to ask Alex that question etc etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tirso Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Not a brilliant start . Although it is early . If it was any less than 3 you'd pack it in but feel there's probably enough scope to get them to 6. Needs on a tv debate or something to change to shift this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
