  1. https://mobile.twitter.com/georgegalloway/status/1162456756292870145?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
  2. Why successful? He wasnā€™t successful in trying to get more taxpayers money. He was probably trying do some creative accounting for his own good.
  3. Was McColl not wanting Ā£93 million of taxpayers money?
  4. The duke of Edinburgh will be behind it. šŸ˜‚
  5. Depends what youā€™re washing it with I suppose.
  6. It was a well known fact that Cameron was practically begging world leaders and his banking friends to get involved. Of course France and Spain had their own breakaway problems and I wouldnā€™t say the worldā€™s establishment was against Scottish independence. UK Banks had a lot to loose if Scotland went independence at that time the pound would have plummeted and Englandā€™s economy, on its own, wouldnā€™t have looked that rosey. They had a vested interest to keep the status quo to protect their English interests. I understand where youā€™re coming from, but weā€™re dealing with two different analogies here. Scotland being overwhelmingly ruled by Westminster is not the same as the uk being in the Eu. Have a nice day Iā€™m off to the pub soon šŸ˜‰
  7. Back to what I said earlier; for who? if you notice many of the scaremongers didnā€™t exactly say it would ruin Scotlandā€™s economy, they generalised and in my opinion they were referring to the rUK economy. I seem to remember them saying it would be bad for the economy which was spun by the papers . Yes I agree brexit will be a bad hit. Exporting businesses want seamless trading with their biggest market and with the uk leaving that free market thatā€™s making most of those companies upping sticks.
  8. My point was more to do with Scotlandā€™s situation in regards to independence, Iā€™m sure you guessed that. I take your point, but it is interesting that during the independence referendum campaign I couldnā€™t recall any loss of investment or firms announcing closures. Yes some threats, but even a blind man could see through them. With the brexit campaign and result, remember thereā€™s still a more likely chance that there will be an agreement on some sort of single market, thereā€™s been tens billions of investments lost and countless manufacturing announcements already. Even the P&J, a staunch tory rag, is saying thousands of farmers face ruin because of brexit.
  9. It really depends on which side of the border and brexit divide you sit.
  10. For who? brexiter; brexit, taking back control will be good for the UK (England) economy. Brexiter; scetix, taking back control will be bad for Scotlandā€™s economy. Really meaning England economy.
  11. Many in Scotland have had long term pain being in this union. How long has this austerity measure been going on for now. Then thereā€™s all the austerity weā€™ve endured over many decades before.
  12. Which soviet style state, the eussr or the ukssr? I know which one controls countries less.
  13. Another one we havenā€™t heard of resigns. Chris Heaton Harris.
  14. I actually stopped it just after the opening sequence then went on to read the tweets. No, Iā€™m now not going to watch the full clip. šŸ˜‚
  15. I think youā€™re phukin right. Sorry šŸ™šŸ˜ƒ It does a bit doesnā€™t it. Lucky I didnā€™t watch all of it. šŸ˜‚
  16. Not only was billy boy and Tommy Robinson at the London brexit demonstration today, another attendee was right winger Aaron Brown of fishing for leave. Heā€™s allegedly a member of storm front a white supremacy anti Semitic group. Nice old jolly gathering today by the looks of it.
  17. Mine too and thatā€™s not taking anything away from the others that have been mentioned. Scotland is open. https://mobile.twitter.com/ScotlandHouseEU/status/1111557929201778688?s=04
  18. Couldnā€™t agree more. He is a class act. Maybe thatā€™s why May walks out when he rises to speak.
  19. Not wanting to get involved in this too much, but things like this do not help. ā€œThree Labour activists arrested by police over anti-Semitismā€ https://mol.im/a/6862547 Yes I know itā€™s the daily malice.
  20. Correct and votes would mostly come from tory supporters, but theyā€™d be a few from labour too. On another note; I see billy boy Mitchell is doing a gig with his flute band at the brexit March in London today. I suppose a few hundred of an audience would be a rise on the usual crowd he plays for in Scotland.
  21. Labour are still behind in the polls, so it looks as though itā€™ll be a hung parliament. Then again anything can happen when a GE is called. Splits in the two main parties and Brexit revenge from the voters (both sides) could easily play their part.
  22. Iā€™m not a betting man, but if I were Iā€™d put the house on it not being your first point. The second and third yes.
